Does anyone know where to purchase replacement plastic buttons that's not mpcstuff.com? I'm not trying to pay their ridiculous prices for pieces of plastic which they probably get off some Taiwanese vendor for 25 cents a pop.

Thanks in advance.

They don't. The OEM buttons are directly from as they are an authorized vendor, the newer stronger buttons they make are a project they undertook themselves.

The buttons are not off the shelf designs. Even when Akai had OEM stock to sell the public it was cheaper than MPCStuff, VST Service and Renato Rizoli when he was in business, the price was still high.
