Thanks @Lolzious @Dimwitted @CapricaBuccaneers @Tonylu1595 your respective feedback is very enlightening. In summary: Lowest price $129. (Canada Computers) Average price $150; but, very pricey given the quality control issues with the LED lighting. Refurb Corsair quality is very good and set at a reasonable price. I need to reevaluate my decision based on the legitimate LED concerns.

Hi, After doing extensive research, I've decided I want to buy the following keyboard: Corsair Vengeance K70 Cherry MX Brown Switches Backlit Mechanical Gaming Keyboard http://www.ncix.com/detail/corsair-vengeance-k70-cherry-mx-cb-94946.htm Questions (1) Is $149.99 CAD (+ HST) a fair purchase price? => Lowest price is at NCIX => Note: Don't care about the Sail vs tramp stamp gaming logo (2) Has anyone ever seen this keyboard go on sale? => I haven't in the past 4 months (3) Is there any new product coming down the pipeline from Corsair that would cause this keyboard's price to drop in the next month? (4) Should I shell out the extra ~ $50 bucks for the RGB version? => Don't need the RGB lighting capability => But the RGB LED lights appear to be more reliable (e.g. don't burn out) Any feedback / advice is appreciated. Thanks in advance.
