Best place to pick up a Drummania Controller?

[devilman]

After playing Guitar Freaks and 2nd Mix a hell of a lot lately, I though I'd have a dabble with the drum games next. Now the stumbling block here is the cost of shipping the drum controller to the UK. Lik-sang sell a Topway controller for £23 ($39) but shipping is a further £34 ($57).

I just wondered if anyone knew of somewhere that could beat that in terms of price?

Topways are crap controllers...they only last a couple months.....

I know, I know, you still want to try the game out anyway. ^_^ Topway controllers are the cheapest you'll find.

Also, just so you know, you can only get Drummania on the PS2.

Weird! I bought a Topway from Red Octane this summer, and it's held up just fine ever since. It's working just as well as the day I got it. Well, the controller is, anyway. I can't say quite as much for the stand. ;-) I have replaced the pedal, though. I didn't like the feel of the one that was included.

I've heard reports of some Topways not responding to simultaneous snare and low tom hits, but mine doesn't exhibit this problem. I suspect there might be more than one hardware revision.
