I've come to a decision, I'll not likely need the old wheel, so if anybody interested, give me a yell.

It's a Microsoft sidewinder FF usb, fully working, I never had any problems with it, other than it's not as precise as the dfp/A1 combo :D
Used for about 1.5 years.

what sort of price u lookin for?

depends on the buyer.
DUR is the arch-enemy of MPR...do you get my meaning? :D

Seriously, what do you think it worth? For me very little, it servers as a backup - 'just in case'.
So, feel free to contact me and make an offer if you're in need of it.

It'd have to be better than my MS Sidewinder non-ff wheel I've got.. what price?

There's one thing I've just felt, as you can see it on the 3rd image the red rubber is pretty shiny - it has some greasy/sticky quality to it.
It was like this before when I put it aside for a few months, but after a while & a bit of rubbing/cleaning it went away.
Don't ask me what's that :tilt: it wasn't me :)

Smithcorp: I would not mind at all (it was a joke only)


I'm sorry, Ezy said he'd like to have it and as a Temmate he's enjoying a certain priority.

So it is sold, thank you for your interest gentlemen.
