Please help me find this.

[Squeek]

Don't get me wrong, I love the Internet, but I REALLY hate looking for things on it. For example, I need a link to send in an e-mail to my mom to get her to get me something for christmas. Guess what? I cannot find ONE within my price range. And believe me, I'm lenient on that.

The item I am looking for is The Nyko AirFlo GCN Controller (I'll be getting the mouse off ThinkGeek).

Google results give me hundreds of online stores to browse. Want to know what I find?

"Product is out of stock".
"Item Unavailable for Purchase".
"Item not in stock".

THEN I finally find ONE site that has the item and it's madly overpriced as compared to the prices of those places that don't have it in stock and never will. That place is Right here.

Hours later, I find another site. GUESS WHAT? They only have the older model of the controller of which I cannot even verify its legitimacy. That site is here. To me, it doesn't look legitimate and it looks like it doesn't even work so I will not be getting that model.

I hate finding stuff online because this crap happens. eBay is not an option in this situation as my mom will never trust eBay no matter the case. Besides, they only have two there. What I'm looking for is a legitimate site that carries this specific controller (The official Nyko one) for a reasonable price (looking for 20-30 dollars WITH shipping included).

Any help greatly appreciated.

PS - The Wireless version of this controller SUCKS. I do not want that one. They stupidly changed the button config and so I will not be getting that one.

RE: Please help me find this.

Why is $30 madly overpriced, thats the price for those airflow controllers....

Hastings, if you have one.

Oh, and I totally share your sentiment about finding things online. Thank God I have a roommate who revels in doing so.

(Thanks to my girlfriend for pointing out that I'm on her name right before I posted this.)

Zildjian - because it's $20 - $25 on Amazon and those sites. Even cheaper on some other sites that don't have it in stock. And that's not including the $5-7 shipping.

Guido - We only have Best Buy, Circuit City, and EBX. NONE of them have it.

Pssh, I bought a fucking Airflow controller for PS2. Air didn't quite flow correctly, so I sent it back to the company and they sent me a new one within 8 weeks and it was the same shit. Paid $30 for it.

Kenzya, you may have gotten the older model. I've been reading about this and they said they upgraded all 3 controllers to work much better. I read the previous PS2 model sucked horribly.

P_P - Our blockbusters carry basically nothing. But I'll look anyway.

Keep 'em coming.

Saw this at Meijer today. Give them a look-see.

I'm buying a IIDX controller soon for $150, so don't whine about price :P

[Squeek]

Chardish - What is Meijer?! Kinda looks like a Wal-Mart or Target... Also, I have every right to whine about price as a jobless college student. I also have every right to whine about not having a job because nobody within a 15 mile radius is hiring cool people.

Zildjian - They had it before for that price. They don't change the price simply because they don't have it now. That'd require, you know... work.

Let me clarify that I don't know any of your stores as I am in the DC area. So, any local chains such as Meijer or Hastings, we don't got it.

The wireless ones for PS2 are $30, guys. The wired ones are like $20.
