I don't really recommend it but this will fit your budget. http://www.amazon.com/Rosewill-RK-6000-Mechanical-Programmable-Anti-Ghosting/dp/B00G505M4S

Careful, those don't even use Cherry MX switches. I would recommend OP getting a Quickfire TK instead, it's $80 but it's the cheapest mech I would pick up.

Yeah. To be honest, if $55 is all you can spend you should just go with a quality membrane keyboard. Otherwise, save up.

g710+ is often around the 70 dollar mark and uses real cherry. It's slightly lesser quality but the features are much much better.
