K95 Price Issues?

About 3 days ago, I had planned to buy the Corsair K95 MX Red with White LEDs. Just today, Newegg ran out of stock said it was unavailable, and Amazons price shot to $200. While other retailers are selling it for ~$300.

 

Did this get discontinued? Or something similar? Even Corsairs links are to sub $300 keyboards. (Even though the price is $150 on the site) 

 

Is there another keyboard that is similar (In features) with White LEDs and MX reds?

No, just wait for them to come back in Stock.

 

But everywhere, at the same time?

The K95 non-RGB is a different keyboard though.

I feel that the K95 non-RGB may have been shoved out of the way for the RGB ones. Because the MX Brown, and MX Blue non-RGB K95 have been discontinued.

i cant find anything to confirm or deny, i really don't think they would leave that part of the market segment. Ill keep looking and hit you up if i find anything.

What do you need the K95 for? I can promise you that you'll never use the macros no matter how much you think you will (just saying). Logitech G710+ has a more humane amount of macros.

Because it is the only one with White LEDs. Other than the RGB. Which I will not be getting. 

I have a Razer Blackwidow 2013 currently.

Is your Blackwidow doing fine? I seemed to remember you painted it white.

 

Anyways, the Cooler Master Quickfire Rapid-i has white LEDs if that's what you're after :)

I call it a piece of shit daily. Also, I really really really need them reds. And that Corsair volume wheel. I have decided on the K95, or K70 if I can't get the K95 ever.

My daily recommendation of Ducky perhaps?

Ducky Shine 4 does not come in MX Reds. From what I can tell.

And I will be getting a K95 or K70. I have already used the Ducky Mini and K65, K70, K95. I have decided really.

Well, good luck finding one m8. I wish you encouragement on your endeavor.

From what I know, the Ducky 4 comes in Red's. Though, no white LED's. I would take a look at the Ducky Legend, however.
