Posted May 4, 2014 Just look at the prices, especially below: http://www.amazon.com/gp/offer-listing/B000YDIA78/ref=dp_olp_new?ie=UTF8&condition=new $736.09+ $34.47 shipping for crappy keyboard. rofl I own that keyboard & it's horrible. While gaming random keys will just stop working and the only way to fix it is to unplug the keyboard, not talking about how bad is the feeling of touch & some scratches keys already have. lol the funny thing is, used ones also ain't below 100$. 105$ with minor cosmetic damage including scrapes and scratches & another deal with 125$ with "The backspace key and the number key 4,5,6 do not work." I wouldn't even spend 10$ on this junk. It's the worse product I ever had. And Razer tech support is very difficult to work with, and they told me they will not replace my product. | CPU: i7 3770k | MOTHERBOARD: MSI Z77A-G45 Gaming | GPU: GTX 770 | RAM: 16GB G.Skill Trident X | PSU: XFX PRO 1050w | STORAGE: SSD 120GB PQI + 6TB HDD | COOLER: Thermaltake: Water 2.0 | CASE: Cooler Master: HAF 912 Plus | Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Posted May 4, 2014 Author It says $300 for me... if you click "5 new from $298.00" & scroll down you will see "$736.09" & still 300$ is way to expansive for that thing, which is factory faulty. | CPU: i7 3770k | MOTHERBOARD: MSI Z77A-G45 Gaming | GPU: GTX 770 | RAM: 16GB G.Skill Trident X | PSU: XFX PRO 1050w | STORAGE: SSD 120GB PQI + 6TB HDD | COOLER: Thermaltake: Water 2.0 | CASE: Cooler Master: HAF 912 Plus | Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Posted May 4, 2014 Author yeah I know also people who worship Razer. Just look at the ratings of this keyboard & still such expansive. It's even not funny by the way, I had their mouse too "Lachesis" died after an year. | CPU: i7 3770k | MOTHERBOARD: MSI Z77A-G45 Gaming | GPU: GTX 770 | RAM: 16GB G.Skill Trident X | PSU: XFX PRO 1050w | STORAGE: SSD 120GB PQI + 6TB HDD | COOLER: Thermaltake: Water 2.0 | CASE: Cooler Master: HAF 912 Plus | Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Posted May 4, 2014 usually ships within 1-3 weeks LOL. That's nothing special on amazon though, sometimes you find ridiculous prices like that, especially on discontinued items. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Posted May 4, 2014 Good job. You're all bashing Razer because of a discontinued product that's overpriced on an online retailer. Since you guys don't like Razer (seems like it's one of the edgy things to hate on), what do you recommend? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Posted May 5, 2014 I really don't understand all this Razer hype. To be honest Apple and Razer are so alike, they both sell overpriced, mostly low quality technology. Apple put fancy packaging on their products and Razer put fancy packaging on their products and market it to 13 year olds. Sadly there are probably some Razer fans who would spend $500 on crappy keyboard. What ever happened to the days where everyone had a Logitech gaming keyboard and they were all the hype.

I just don't understand why people buy Razer products, they are more expensive, they aren't great quality, they love to make up fancy new technologies that are supposed to help you game better (Razer game booster) and they spend all their money on packaging and not actually on the product.

TT eSports, QPad, Feenix, Gigabyte, Roccat, Steelseries, Gamdias, Tesoro, Mad Catz, Genius, Sharkoon, Zalman... Can you tell me how Razer's mark-up compares to any of those companies? Can you tell me how Razer's failure rate compares to any of those companies? Can you tell me how Razer's packaging-to-product cost ratio compares to any of those companies? I also wonder whether you've ever pondered why people buy products from any of those companies? If not, then why not? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can you tell me how Razer's packaging-to-product cost ratio compares to any of those companies? I also wonder whether you've ever pondered why people buy products from any of those companies? If not, then why not? Lets do a quick keyboard comparison... Say we have under $100 to spend on a gaming keyboard. CM Storm QuickFire XT - $89 Genuine Cherry MX Red switches N key roll-over Removable cable Extra key caps USB and PS/2 Steel backplate Razer Blackwidow 2014 Edition - $99 No Cherry switches just Razer made ones 10 key roll-over No removable cable No extra key caps USB only As you can clearly see by avoiding Razer we can pay less and actually get more. Also a while ago I got a Razer mouse as a gift and it only took 2 weeks before it broke, so I had to pay shipping to send it back to Razer and they took ages to send me a new one. Anyway when I got it back it broke again and I just gave up a bought a Logitech G700s which is just an amazing mouse. And my keyboard is an IBM model M from 1988 and it still works great today and its well over 20 years old. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And what if I want the additional macro keys, USB pass-through and audio pass-through that you conveniently deleted from the Blackwidow's feature list? Meanwhile, we have the Das with a smaller feature list than either of them, coming in at $139, or even better, the Feenix Autore for $169, whose marketing spiel makes Razer look positively modest about their products. Again, Razer are no worse than many of the companies I mentioned above. Why is it Razer specifically that seems to upset you so much? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
