Gogamer still has some "new old stock" FF Sidewinders...

The only problem is they don't ship out of the US. I was hoping to buy one my self but I'm in Canada.

Quote from their site: GoGamer does not ship to International Destinations at this time. All orders placed on Friday with overnight shipping will be delivered on Monday. FedEx Saturday delivery is available.

that sucks... I guess you don't have any American friends(?)...then you could have it shipped to their house and then they ship it to you.

Sorry to hear of the death...I use the CH line and can highly recomend their products. You could if wanted to, buy a new un-used MSFFB on e-bay. What the heck, buy two

Tip from a stickmodder: Buy another joystick and a USB-rumble-pad (ebay <5$), connect the pad to the base of the joystick and plug them both in. Forcefeedback-joystick complete.

Yes it will take some time to find a new one. I bought a new MSFFB 2 Red box, but I searched e-bay every 5 days or so for a few weeks. It all depends on how bad you want one, they do appear, but biding will be strong. I paid 185.00 US

Here is a couple of them

I still got my MSFF1 in combo with an Saitek X45 and it still works.....and if it would lay down and die i got an MSFF2 in reserve.

Wow.. I don't hear about that too often... To those who do not use FFB... it is more than just the gunshake and stall warning.. that stuff is good.. but for me it is the tactile feel.... the solenoids in a MSFFB2 do things that no spring can do... No matter how good the stick... a spring cant transfer a hole in the wing to your hand.... a FFB stick can... I have one that has been going strong since 2001... and another in the closet.. The best joystick ever made IMO. To daate anyway.
