I am very weary of this. 3rd party controllers have never been very good to me, especially if they are straight to the point knock offs.

I received my white PS3 DualShock3 Wireless Controller a few days ago ordered from Dinodirect. They are not original but my friend wouldn't know the difference

-Battery does not last that long with vibrations on.( This is my first Dualshock Controller so I don't really know the average time)
- Analog stick feel a bit stiff* but hopefully loosens up with playing.
- Various colours available.
- Delivery time was 2 Weeks (was delivered to my closest post office)

*Your first indication of it not being a genuine controller...

Stiff* The weight that re-positions the analog stick to the center feels slightly heavier (If that makes sense, I have no idea what the controller looks like inside).

Personally I dont think that there are any better controllers out there than the DS3 and the Xbox controllers - even the better third party brands,which are in the same sort of price range,such as Razer and Mad Catz have their down sides.

The important thing to remember here though is that according to @Mouks and some of the comments on the retailers site these are not 3rd party/generic controllers but fakes - good looking ones but still fake.

Is it possible to get PS3 controllers fixed? My old controller goes haywire when I press in the left analogue stick (seems to have happened to quite a few people actually). Want to buy a new controller but they're rather expensive and I don't wanna buy a knock-off that will barely last.

It might work out a few rands less to fix it than buying a new one which you are guaranteed to work properly.

Indeed. Fakes, they are.
