Help me choose my second MKB. Ducky shine 2 or 3 and Corsair K70.


Hi guys I'm in need of your inputs as to choose my next MKB, I have the Cm storm Trigger Z with brown switches which I use. First of all I live here in the Philippines so the cost of peripherals is quite high. (The exchange rate is $1 = 45) There are little to no sellers of DAS and Filco's here, so I opted to choose corsair and ducky as they have many stocks. My question is what do I buy in terms of build quality and known issues from both keyboards.

Here are the prices for reference 
Ducky shine 3 - $145
Ducky shine 2 - $120
Corsair K70 - $130

 

Thanks in advance.  :)

 

PS: Shipping is not an option as the cost is too high.

Personally I'd go for the K70, which I have done, not sure when I'll order it though, the dedicated media buttons and the volume roller were a big selling point for me.

I've read that the shine 3 has LED issues. They go out after 2-3 months.Do I have to be worried about this?

So maybe its a batch that was sold here in the Philippines. Some guys at the local forum are having problems with it.

I would get the Ducky. Great quality, and the missing media keys can be made with Autohotkey.

That's pleasant news. Can you give me a link for reference? That would be great, I'm quite busy so that would be a lot of help. Thanks man.
