Looking for joystick(s) for C64

Is there any shop that still sells C64 joysticks (preferably with paypal payment option). I'm looking for some small joystick that fits in small hands and is not hard to control for child.

thanx for help.

I think this is the only option for brand new stuff:

Old stuff - ebay, allegro, etc.

Not sure if Jens sells directly, nor whether he accepts PayPal, but it's also available here, payable through PayPal:

I used double-sided tape to attach a TAC-2 to the table - "arcade style". Worked well for a 4-year old :-)

Thanx guys.

Both sites seem to sell only Competition PRO. It is a bit hard to handle (I have one for PC). I need something smaller, ideally with contacts that don't click. Any other ideas?

Bepp> TAC-2 seems to be cute. Any idea where I can buy it?

Man... Nothing beats the old Atari 2600 controllers!!!!

I had an Atari 2600 controller, then went to one of those Epyx joysticks (clicked too loudly in early hours), then one of those IconTrollers (by suncom), Which I may still have somewhere(which rocked).

You can find the Atari Sticks by clicking the link and you can find them as low as $1.00 (us).

Nice Raf!

Found another place, but really not sure of the pricing structure.

Industrial Joysticks!! Seriously! The also sell trackballs for those of us that still use them.

http://www.chproducts.com/

EDIT... Man.. Looking through most of these, I doubt they suit your needs, but who knows right? Some look like replacements for that old coin-op machine, but some look really, really serious. The trackballs are sweet though. I doubt you get anything from this place as they don't show prices, and we all know what that means...

EDIT AGAIN... I never think of "local" places... sigh...

Dig the $499.99 thrustmaster, mwuahahaha. Paypal, credit card.. Only issue I see is it's in the States (USA). Not sure if overseas is available, but don't see why not.

The Phanthom, are you sure you are still talking about simple digital 8-bit joysticks?
