I'll check it out. Sadly, 90 USD would be over $100 CAD

I'm in Saskatchewan actually and I managed to pick mine up on black friday a year or two ago for 90. So don't worry

That's good to know, thanks. Every time I see a keyboard I want for a reasonable price, turns out to be US price

if you wanted something cheap, a magicforce68 with outemu browns would be like 40 bucks

 

Yeah I didn't word that correctly. I'm not really looking for something cheap, just something more affordable I guess. I'm willing to spend over $100 CAD, but a lot of the keyboards I've seen seem to be hitting the $150 - $200 mark which is a bit much

The Ducky One 2 Mini might be a good choice for you if you're willing to spend $100 on it. It comes in a Cherry Browns variant.

I personally have a k95 with brown switches, was a lot considering... But I've had it for a couple of years and has treated me well. Really enjoy it.

Unfortunately, it's really expensive. More than I'm willing to spend. Looks great though

dont limit yourself to mx browns please

after i left them

i realized i'd rather have many others like purple pro, halo,

why I went hot swap also

I like the brown switches, it's a good mixture of gaming and typing. Not as loud as the blue, and needs more force than the reds. A good middle ground

there are many more switches  than just mx cherry

like I said i was a mx brown user

id rather have many other switches than cherry mx color variants

gateron, kailh, halo, etc

 

i'm just saying dont limit yourself to just mx cherry browns

there are many other switches out there with great quality

 

but if you limited on funds than i can understand but other brand switches can be had though too

Yeah I get that. But I am somewhat limited with my funds, the cherry mx fits my needs and is generally cheaper than the others. I myself am not too familiar with the others though, so if you know of a switch that is good for both typing and gaming at a similar price range I would love to hear it.

 It is very sturdy and does not feel crappy like some of the other keyboards of similar price.

Thanks, will add to the list. It's $130 CAD though, which sucks
