SEIMITSU BUTTONS. Where's a good place to buy?

Post by PinkSweets »

Hey everyone,
I recently bought the HORI EX2 for XBOX 360 and want to mod it. Ya know just put some nice artwork on and some new buttons.
Where's the best place to buy Seimitsu and Sanwa buttons or any other arcade accessory?
Here's an example of what I'm looking for

Thanks

Akihabarashop.jp is really, really good and they cover pretty much everything.

I also ordered from lizardlick about 2 weeks ago. I'm still waiting.

Thanks a lot man! Exactly what I was looking for. Seimitsu translucent pushbuttons. I'll most definitely be buying a few different colors. Just beautiful.
Thanks again.

Oh shit! they have the HORI Real Arcade Pro for X360! Man, if I knew about this site last night I would have ordered that one instead of the EX2. Ah well, I guess I'll have to own both now :D
Thanks for the link!

I really appreciate the offer but I was just looking for translucent buttons to match the decal I'll be using.

For Armored Core,

Just out of curiousity, how much are you selling them for and are you based out of the USA? And aren't the RG buttons supposed to have a longer & more durable life compared to the regular Seimitsu produced push buttons?

Back to Pink Sweet's Seimitsu push button thread at hand.

That's sounds like a pretty reasonable price. I'm based in the USA as well and that makes for easier payment + shipping. ^_~

Oh dude, I wonder if you placed that order yet... :shock:

If you're willing to wait until November or so, ArcadeShock has preorders up for the HRAP EX at $130. And since they're in the US, shipping would be 1/8th what shipping from Akishop would cost.

Might be too late to get in on their preorders; maybe you don't want to wait; that's cool. I figured I'd at least alert you.

(Also, another recommendation for Lizardlick. I actually ordered Seimitsu buttons from them 9/19 and got my parts by 9/22.)

Happy modding. 8)

I fortunately did not place that order yet. Thanks a bunch for the heads up! I can totally wait until November because I have my EX 2 to hold me over till then. :D

pink sweets whats your name? i pack lizard licks stuff. bet i did yours.
Damn Tim, you know there are quite a few Americans out there who still lives in tents due to this shitty economy, and you're dropping loads on a single game which only last 20 min. Do you think it's fair? How much did you spend this time?

i usually get my stuff from them 3-4 days after i place the order. try posting in the lizardlick thread over on srk (i think i've seen you post there) inquiring about it. if it's been that long i'm guessing usps lost it.
