For Sale: XE-1 Pro HE Joystick Partially Works Complete with Box

[Vanacloud]

First time seller here.  Got a pretty good condition Stick BUT got some problems with it.

1) The joystick can ONLY move left but has difficulty moving up / right, CANNOT move down.  Perhaps a easy fix? I dont know.

2) Everything else works including the turbo mode and the 2 buttons.  Tested as recently as 7/23/14. 

That being said, this is so rare, not even Japan sellers who specializes in PCE / Super grafx stuff has this stick.  Therefore, the price is Negotiable because I do not know how to price this thing.

Im selling it because Perhaps someoone knows how to fix it or something and I want to give it to true collectors who loves games and would take care of it.   PM me or something if your interested

Ive seen them on YJA for ¥8000 working. Not rare at all possibly uncommon.

Whats a YJA? Got a link or something?

Anyways, like I said, im open to any offers really, but a nice point of reference would be nice.    Yeah, thats my ebay page, you can read my feedbacks and whatnot, im a trusted seller.  I basically tried to sell it on ebay (With a much lower price obviously) but it wasnt going anywhere so... thank god I found this forum who specializes on PC Engine.

I dont see them in YJA.. I saw a similiar looking XE-1 Pro but its not mine.

Thanks, didnt know YJA = Yahoo japan auction.. japanese version of ebay, nice.

As for my original price, it was like... 500 or something? Because I thought rare = high price.  But i can definitely do lower since this partially works.

What are these going for today? Google says ¥8000 = $1200 USD which can't possibly be right.

$100 seems really high, I would guess this model of stick is worth $50.

Listings from Japan, eBay or otherwise, would also title and/or describe this as "Junk".

A thousand bucks for a broken junk stick, the OP is clearly high.

$100 seems really high, I would guess this model of stick is worth $50.

Looks like the ¥ is the symbol for a Chinese Yuan and equal to 16 cents US. Hence the Google conversion error.

Anyway, $50 sounds about right, I paid $45 CIB for mine about 4 years ago. It's a fantastic joystick.
