First order of business: Now I know that it takes roughly 2 weeks to get stuff from UK (possibly all of Europe too basing this assumption solely on geographic location).
Next order of business: The teal controller shell I'm expecting from DealExtreme is taking quite some time! I sure hope I didn't step into the says-in-stock-but-really-isn't trap the site is notorious for.
Onto the post itself:
I found myself blindly ordering stuff due to my impatience and clearly wasn't thinking straight. The seller from China had listed all sorts of the same products with different pictures, prices and descriptions it threw me off. One set of white parts had a start/select silicon piece, whereas there was another listing that described the parts to be "pure white" which from the sound of it described a less murkier shade of white than the previous listing, except it didn't have the start/select buttons. Ended up getting both. Other than that, I only wanted yellow thumbsticks, except it cost but a fraction more for a whole set (again without start/select buttons) so I got that instead in case I wanted to alter the mix of white and yellow buttons in the future.
Those rainbow gel pads you see were an incentive - which wasn't tempting in the slightest - for one of the listings on the white buttons. It's a silicon cover for your thumbsticks. Feels cute, though tacky. Will hand this off to someone if they want it.
