Any good deals on fight sticks ? (Xb360)

Looking to play SSF4AE, the only problem is I have little knowledge on fight sticks. Are the MadcatTE sticks any good ? Everyone throws out the name Hori, should I be looking into that ?

Any replies or knowledge is greatly appreciated, thanks.

The standard tournament stick is currently the MadCatz TE. Its a great stick with high quality parts. You can catch them on sale or try and pick up a used one on ebay or shoryuken.com forums. Hori is another great stick maker, the Hori real arcade pro is a fantastic stick the Hori VLX is a huge top of the line stick.(it also cost 300 bucks)

If your just getting into fighting games I say get a MadCatz TE, if you find down the line that your not really into fighting games the stick has a very high resale value.

shoryuken.com trade section if you're looking for it used or from someone. otherwise your only choice is pretty much http://store.gameshark.com/?utm_source=MC_BuyNow&utm_medium=website
I don't think there's going to be a sale anytime soon since Evo was just like a week ago.
If you want a Hori, I think the cheapest one that's worth getting is this one. http://stores.shophoriusa.com/-strse-103/Xbox-360-Real-Arcade/Detail.bok
You can also try looking around Amazon or eBay.
