What's your budget anyway? Not that I'd sell mine in thousand years, but it seems there are so many people making you offers and all get declined, I think you should give them a better idea on what you're willing to spend and what items you offer to trade.
This would save you from offers you're not willing to accept, and thus would also eliminate the need for thread bumps.
Otherwise, just put a few dollars every month into the savings box for your Hori controller fund.
