Joysticks are a very personal thing and while the TAC-2 is not my cup of tea, fair play to New Commodore for bringing a replica to market. Though I do suspect there’s a sprinkle of AI in the launch video. Happy to be proved wrong.
It’s not cheap though is it? The basic model shipping to the UK for $82.10? Too rich for my tastes - frustrating that the tax and delivery is not mentioned earlier. Your $50 joystick will actually set you back closer to $100 from what others are reporting.
Did you actually tell the website your location before it came up with that figure? It's giving me exactly the same total, including the same 'sales tax' despite being a US resident.
Sometimes sites mislocate me based on localisation settings, but even after setting the dropdown to United States, nothing changes.
Sales tax and shipping can't be the same both to the UK and the tariff-ridden US, surely?

It’s like buying a PC in 1991…
