    Looks like a cheap rip off

    • +1

      I've got the same one, nothing 'cheap' or 'rip off' about it. Works better than a branded one.

        Nothing 'cheap' about it

        Then why is it on a bargain site?

        • +2

          They were referring to the quality, not the price.

        "Works better than a branded one."

        I find that hard to believe.

      Rough around the edges is an understatement from the looks of that back picture

    • It doesn't advertise itself as an official Xbox controller.

      Not a valid neg.

      • +1

        Doesn't have to be advertised as an official one to be a valid neg based on quality.

        • +2

          Of course it need to be if it's being compared to one.

          If it's being compared to other 3rd party controllers then fine, but they would need to say that they had experience with it and it was built poorly, not just having a look at the thumbnail and then negging based on"looks cheap".

          Not only is it common sense (maybe not in your case), but it's in the voting guidelines.

      It originally did if you check the revisions tab

      • +2

        Ooo little bit sneaky there, looks like BargainQuail had a valid neg originally but the listing was changed.

  • +1

    "quality and very interesting"
    nice review

    If this was originally priced over 18 USD like the store claims, I'll eat my socks.
    Store should be called LieTake.

    • +1

      You should find a cheaper link if you want to neg.

      There are cheaper ones I've found on eBay, but your neg isn't valid until you can find the same product at a cheaper price.

      • +1

        Hit the report button if you think they're invalid ;)

        • Does nothing. Mods only remove neg votes if no reason is given. Down vote the comment and if enough people do then the neg is removed.

        • I did, and it was reviewed but the mods let it stay.

          There's a lot of mods on this site that remove comments which adhere to rules, and leave comments that are against their rules.

          It's pretty black and white that you can't neg a deal because you don't agree with the RRP.

          ..
          'Mentioning RRP.'

          So yeah, moderation didn't work in this case.

          You can neg for a cheaper price, but you have to provide a link to the cheaper price. I found one, I could neg this deal if I wanted to, but cheepwun shouldn't be able to neg the deal because he doesn't agree with a very standard RRP of $17 USD.

        • +1

          @c0balt: You're right. I've seen that happen recently too.

      • +1

        As above, you can neg if it's not good quality regardless of price.

        • +1

          Yeah.. You need to actually own one to comment on the quality, not just say 'looks cheap'.

      • There are cheaper ones I've found on eBay

        You answered your question. 18.03 USD is nothing close to what the clones sell for on ebay and countless other net storefronts. Plus it would be hard to find one with a scratch along the face of it like the one pictured here http://www.lightake.com/p/Video-Game-Wired-USB-Controllers-G…

        • I didn't ask any questions, so you don't have to answer anything for me. I was telling you that your neg was invalid.

          You negged because you were unhappy with the stated RRP = invalid neg.
          https://www.ozbargain.com.au/wiki/help:voting_guidelines

        • I negged after my comment was negged by the over-zealous Store Rep, plus the fact that it's not particularly cheap product and the fact that I dislike the laughable RRP claim (which every store seems to do).

          So there were multiple reasons.

          I should have said: you answered your own statement.

        • @cheepwun:

          What you should have said: Nothing.

    hi, will this work with the xbox one?

  • +4

    I've said this previously, but if it's one piece of advice I can give to anybody purchasing accessories for their consoles is to NEVER buy aftermarket controllers. Especially if it's unbranded. They simply don't have the durability of an official controller and you'll end up wasting more money in the long run.

    I would rather spend an extra $12 (includes shipping) and get an official Microsoft one:

      Eh, they're OK for spare controllers for occasional local multiplayer.

      But anything above $15 delivered or so isn't really a bargain, I think, for knock-off 360 controllers…

      • +1

        I would then politely ask to use your controller and you can use the spare one! :)

      • +2

        i agree. especially when an official one is only $12 more delivered from MS themselves: https://www.ozbargain.com.au/node/253892

    • +2

      Have you seen the price of a Wii U pro controller compared to the knock offs?

      Yeah I'm not paying $70 for a 2nd player Mario Kart controller when I can get one that works great for less than $20.

    Alkudo stop putting +1 on everyones comments without reading them first, that's just stupid and annoying.

      Store Rep put a negative on mine. Sad, sad, store rep.
