Amiga CD32 joypad

My friend is looking to buy a cd32 joypad for his cd32 but original one's are quite expensive at the moment so I spotted this on eBay and was wondering if it was any good or poor quality.

I'm sure it's better than the original one which have stonemason's picks on the cross, making it almost unusable!

Unless you like objects of torture.

I’ve got one of those Bromigo!

It’s like using a SNES pad. Not bad button feel either.

Seriously Bromigo! They go for the same or even higher than the original CD32 Pads

Well, having had one, these are far superior to the original pad so that makes sense.

They are a good pad. But as the Op has eluded to that the original CD32 is quite expensive. These are too. So really it defeats the object as the Op will be spending the same amount of monies or more.

I wouldnt know where to start and I believe the same fella that sells the pads also sells the components.
