The V.S Fightstick comes out to around $180 after tax & shipping in ontario.

Same with the soul calibur stick (which appears to be based on the TE-S rather than the newer design)
Pretty good deal all things considered.

Hi, can you or anyone who knows describe the differences between each of those fight sticks? I have a SF Round 2 TE. These sticks look like they're all made of Sanwa parts so I'm assuming they're all the same with different art.

Is the SFXT V.S. stick the same thing but with additionally compatibility with the Connector Kit?
 
The Soul Calibur stick looks to be the TE-S which is basically a thinner version of the original TE.

The fightstick pro is supposed to be their new line of tournament level stick.
I have one, but I'm not sure how to describe the difference. At the very least, i know that it seems on par with the TE more or less in terms of quality, just a different shape (no rhombus sides, has a better grip imo) Also, personally I think the line design is superior to the cross design.

The VS fightstick is supposed to be madcatz's attempt at a premium fightstick for the people.
From the looks of it, it's bigger, heavier stick that's supposed to be nicer.

(skip to 2:02ish for fightstick pro, skip to 2:43 for the VS fightstick)
 
Wow awesome, great info, thanks telepathy. I've also been looking at the Qanba Q4 because of the handle and the cross compatibility, but that V.S. stick looks crazy.
 
It's up to you whether you go for the Qanba or the VS stick.
I would say it depends on your needs. I have sticks for both platforms so I'm not particularly worried about cross compatibility. Honestly the pictures for the VS stick dont do it justice; only became interested in it when i watched that video.
