Title: Avenue Pad 6 Group buy!
Post by: MNKyDeth on February 21, 2019, 09:30:01 AM

So I see on eBay they have a lot of 20 Avenue Pad 6 controllers. Fairly expensive ....

However it is roughly $62 per controller.
I would be willing to buy the lot and sell off the controllers to anyone interested at cost + shipping to your location. If you are going to MGC then no shipping charge as I can bring it there for you.

I'm not looking to make money on them. I just want 5 for myself and new ones are typically more expensive. I want to sell off the rest but want to make sure there is enough interest before spending this kind of money as I want to make most of it back. :)

Put my dumbass down for 1 kind sir.

:)  I'll slip you some $$ at MGC if we get enough chummers to buy in.

I can try and see if they will take less. But overall with all the posts on discord and in this forum.
I have two maybes and one for sure.

Maybe ask around to others you know or groups that might be interested. If I can offer them less and they take it I'll pass that on as well. But lots of these places don't lower their prices on eBay.

You can buy individual Avenue Pad 6's for less than $62 on ebay, so it's probably not worth it.

I'd try and go outside of eBay to save that extra 8% or w/e, and a bit less on the bulk deal if you're going to be buying a lot

Yeah that seems pretty salty to me. I could use a 2nd one for when we do Street Fighter II CE at MGC, but not at that price.

I think the price is for brand new and Mkny is looking at like a sealed case of new old stock.
