ALL WICO OWNERS NEED YOUR HELP ponyboy

you cant stop selling these or the grommets

I need 8 of each but I wont be able to order for a week or two. Will you still maintain some stock?

Agreed.

I've already got more balltops than bases, but If you put them on offer again, I'll buy a few more just for spares.

They fit Wico sticks and Happ P360s. Not Comps, Supers, or anything else that I know of.

Post by: ponyboy on November 04, 2006, 08:02:27 pm: Thanks Kremmit. NiteWalker he is correct.

Timoe, I will not stop selling them as long as I have them.

Maybe someone on the forum would like to take them all and continue the sales.

Which is a nice stick by the way

Post by: Pac-Fan on April 23, 2007, 05:49:53 pm: I PM'ed last week and have not heard anything. Anyone know if these are JUST the balls themselves or is it the ball attached to the stainless steel shaft (ball or ball+shaft) that he is selling? Balltop to me implies just the ball, but I found a few other sites selling Wico excess stating ball+shaft's were being sold.

Can anyone who ordered clear this up for me before I place an order? Thanks!

Post by: SavannahLion on April 23, 2007, 07:48:08 pm: Oh Snarf, I'd like to order them too.

What does the pink color look like?

Would've liked to get the purples off him as well, oh well. :dunno
Title: Re: HUGE Lot of NOS Wico Balltops & Grommets *** SPECIAL PRICING ***
Post by: Kremmit on April 23, 2007, 10:13:22 pm: They are ball and shaft. Actuators, e-clips and the little tiny actuator springs were included as well, although it was hit and miss on getting the round leafswitch actuators or the square microswitch actuators. I picked up a batch a while back, and they are shiny and perfect. :applaud:

Wico Grommets *** SOLD OUT ***

Damn it. Is there any other steady source for NOS Wico grommets? I meant to buy a few from Ponyboy but never got around to it. I don't own any Wico sticks currently but I'm sure I'll get a machine with Wico's eventually, and then I'll be kicking myself for not buying new grommets when I had the chance, the same way I still kick myself for not buying a few NOS LS-30's from videoconnect.com when they were $9 a pop, or even when they were $15 a pop. I was right on their page too back then thinking about buying a couple, but figured I'd do it later because I didn't own a machine that needed them at the time. And wouldn't you know it, now I own an Ikari Warriors machine...

Post by: Pac-Fan on April 24, 2007, 10:51:54 am: DANG IT!! I wanted (Needed) some grommets and was going to just order a few balltops as extra's. Now if the grommets are gone we have to succumb to the eBay gougers that want $10-$15 per grommet and $6 shipping PER grommet :(

DANG IT!!!!!! Missed it by *THAT MUCH* :banghead:

Post by: Kremmit on July 01, 2007, 10:13:25 pm: There seem to be an awful lot of these on ebay since Ponyboy started offloading these. I have to assume it's his customers reselling them. Now that he's out, that's probably the place to look.
