[quote name='ultramanJ'] Further still, all of these sticks you see being sold as "new" at Gamestop are actually used sticks that were returned. [/quote]
So true, I bought an vf edition ex2 for the 360, and the usb cord was gnarled, there was no sticker sheet, and the whole pad was filthy, so I dragged it back in and made the fool get me another one out of the stock room (rest room), which looked new, at least to me. GS will sell you anything, jeez.
Oh, and I use this stick often on my ps3. I'd recommend it.
