Title: Will pay $30 for 3 Nintendo buttons
Post by: jumpman on April 20, 2009, 09:31:28 pm
I'm looking for a set of original Nintendo buttons, (2) Blue and (1) Orange. Will pay up to $30 for a set that is in Excellent condition, no burns , clean. I will also buy single buttons. I would still be interested in buttons not in excellent condition for a lower price. Lets make a deal, I can pay thru paypal or money order.

$5 each, so $15 for buttons and let's say $5 shipping. Do I get the other $10 as a "Reward"? :D

I have a set of the "repro buttons" from mikes arcade there is no comparison between the original and the repros. The originals are much taller, color isnt really close, the amount of spring is different, the originals even make a better sound when you hit em.

The originals were made with strongtanium like the joysticks that's why.  If fact, there should be no need for reproductions as nintendo parts never break.

No longer need buttons, after a few posts, with no worthwhile replies, (Strongtanium) I posted on KLOV and got several sets of buttons in just a few hours.

Do you have a link to the KLOV post? I found a thread asking for buttons, but no replies. My orange button is kinda loose and the blues are discolored, so I am looking for an original set as well.

Thanks
