NES Connector

[leatherrebel5150]

I know this has been asked before but it was not really answered in the thread I found.

Where can I get a good 72 pin replacement from? The last thread just said go to ebay but I mean specifically which seller or which site have some of you got them from and they actually work?

Thanks

Yeah, you do have to be careful. The one time I tried it I bought one off eBay, and it was junk. A week after installing it I was having the same problems as before.

I get mine from http://nintendorepairshop.com/

I agree with above, nintendorepairshop.com is the way to go. Alot of ebayers will buy a bulk amount of busted 72-pin connectors and "fix them" themselves. This means they bend the pins back down to make a good contact, problem being the pins are weak to begin with so as Rev.link said, alot of them turn out to be junk.
