If you want good quality, you pay good money I'm afraid. If you want to buy locally, here are 2 UK sites:

http://www.ultimarc.com

http://www.arcadeworlduk.com/

Ultimarc is a UK company, despite the website defaulting to dollars for some reason. They sell rgb buttons (Ultralux) and a combined i/o board like the Howler (I-PAC Ultimate I/O), plus a variety of joysticks.

Arcade World sell Ultimarc products, plus some additional stuff like t-molding and a range of coin doors for example.

I don't know if you already made your purchase or not, but I would recommend Ultimarc stuff as well. They are pricier though which it seems like you want to keep costs down...

I just bought from their site and it arrived at my house in just 5 days, and I am in the US. I personally chose them because their ultrlaux buttons looked the best imo. There was a thread comparing the 3 popular buttons, and their plastics looked the most crisp (less opaque and more vibrant). I can't find the thread though...However, I am talking about single color buttons, so I can't say much about their RGB stuff.

While I only started my build last week, I have to say that everything seems to be in nice quality. I was a bit worried about the analog u360, but it feels solid like an arcade stick minus the clicking. Their 4/8 sticks are probably near perfect if that is what you are aiming for.
