Wait...did you seriously spend $220 in Sanwa parts? Like a full set of 8 buttons and a stick should only run like $40-$50.
I bought this from FocusAttack:
2 x Sanwa GT Y Octagonal Restrictor Gate
8 x Sanwa OBSC 24mm Pushbutton Clear Rim/Solid Plunger - White
2 x Sanwa LB-30 N-S Battop White
16 x Sanwa OBSC 30mm Pushbutton Clear Rim/Solid Plunger White
2 x Sanwa JLF-CD Shaft & Dustwasher Set Black
2 x Sanwa JLF-TP-8YT Joystick
That's for two sticks with some extras in case I need to replace things in the future. With shipping and everything it added up to $202.50.
