This came my way via some coworkers, but $32.99 for a new Pro controller is a steal.

Ty for the link. I bought one because that's a great price for it. Hopefully it comes through, I don't see why it wouldn't, just a little too good to be true.

It was noted on Reddit that the seller is questionable and has a switch up for $150 on Groupon.

I'll pass. Sketchy sellers and too good to be true prices don't end well with me. Let me know if he honours his product.

That's an excellent value. Are these from the production run with the poor D-pad though?

Are you referring to the D-Pad prior to the Xenoblade 2 pro controller? If so, I don't get what people are saying about the quality. My brother has the launch pro controller and I have the xenoblade one, and I really can't feel much of a difference if any at all.

Thanks. I picked one up. I assume Groupon would offer a full refund if this doesn't actually shop or if this is somehow a scam.

If anyone is on the fence about this controller, it's without doubt my favourite of all time.

Incredibly comfortable and well made.

I'd be on board 100% if the seller wasn't sketchy. Anyone know Groupons refund policy for this type of stuff? Don't want to get my cc info stolen...

This was posted to /r/gamedeals and almost everyone in the thread edited their comment to say the buyer seems fraudulent and that they canceled their order. If it's too good to be true it probably is. Be cautious!

It's supposed to have a longer knob on the bottom of the d-pad, making it impossible to hit up and down or left and right at the same time.

Puyopuyo Tetris is pretty much unplayable for me because of it. Most people won't have an issue with it, but on certain games it really stands out.

I'm regretting jumping on one so quickly now after seeing how shady this seller is. Gonna wait and see what transpires, but what's the worst that can happen? I'm out $33?

Hm.... so what's the call. I paid with PayPal. Do I cancel or wait till some shit happens then ask for a refund from PayPal or Groupon? Are either responsible?

Weren't these also being clearanced at certain Walmart stores?

Strange considering how popular the Switch is.

If I'm paying via PayPal, I would like to think it will be easy to get a refund if seller does not follow through.

Bought and cancelled. I trusted the Groupon name enough to buy quick, but the seller is too shady.
