Replacement PS3 controller recommendations.

[chip75]

Does anyone have a recommendation for a replacement PS3 controller? I still have my original pad, but it's not going to last forever. I bought a secondhand pad, but unfortunately it shattered in my hands. I have a third-party pad, which looks identical, but the analogue sticks are horrible, I thought they might need breaking-in, but they just don't have any feel to them*.

The was an eBay seller in the UK that sold original pads for 2s and 3s, but I can't find it.

I'd be tempted with a PS4 pad either an official model or a wired one.

I'm tempted to try and replace the analogue sticks from the shattered pad and try and solder them into the third-party pad, but at the moment I'm running out of controllers. I've broken 3 pads in the last week and don't want to dismantle a working one.
