Depends where you live but quick questions would be: Do you mind a tenkeyless? ("TKL" = no numpad) size? Must you have Cherry MX switches?

 

A couple options through Amazon:

$67 Razer Blackwidow Tournament Edition (TKL and not cherry MX)

On that same link, you can get the full sized non LED version for $10 more and stealth means the more quieter key switch.

If you spent a bit more there will be more options that include cherry MX or full sized

 

You can also find a couple of TKL mechanical keyboards under $70 on massdrop, but you'll have to sign up for a free acc if you haven't been there before.

Massdrop.com is good, they always have decent Mechanicals on for cheap. Right now they have a really neat Keycool Mechanical with Kailh switches https://www.massdrop.com/buy/keycool-87-backlit-mechanical-keyboard

I just got a Tt esports Posideon ZX Blue, its a great keyboard and wound up being $85 with shipping and tax (Canada). Really nice and sturdy and has Kailh Blue switches (Cherry MX blues but cheaper). The selling point on the keyboard was the 5 year warranty on the switches. http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16823162032&cm_re=tt_esports-_-23-162-032-_-Product

Also CM Storm keyboards can for for really cheap and those have actual Cherry MX is that is really important to you (I have tried a keyboard with MX Blues and it felt almost identical to mine but was 120$ more.
