Default New Joystick

Sadly, it is time to retire my worn out Saitek290 Pro,
Anyway I am looking for a new joystick to use for PR/Simulators.

Any suggestions?

I'm looking for one thats from 20 to 50 dollars. (Don't have much cash because Im upgrading my graphics card)

I just thought I would ask you guys instead of searching the net for one.

How about $7? Dual Shock USB PC Controller Game pad Joypad Joystick - eBay (item 370271547828 end time Jan-05-10 11:06:04 PST)

Works only on Vista/XP/2000/ME/98

It looks very good and seems to be a good joystick if I would want to buy a joystick I would buy this one...

I have a Logitech Extreme 3D Pro, one of the joysticks he suggested, and I would certainly recommend it.
It's cheap, simple, and has some useful features like rotation, where you can twist the stick itself left and right, which is very useful if you're flying a chopper and want to make some small adjustments.
It's capabilities have saved my Huey or A-10 many times.
