Unfortunately, that sells for about 300usd here. 

 

Coolermaster goes for about 200usd. 

check out Ducky One TKL (non-Backlit) http://www.duckychannel.com.tw/page-en/Ducky-One-TKL-non-backlit/ , It cost roughly 70USD from where I come from (it's Rp890.000 here), it's great considering the price/

Japan makes it much tougher. Do you need a Japanese layout or a US English layout for your keyboard? Are you willing to import and pay the high prices for shipping and import fees? I recently when through the same issues and might be able to lend you some advice but it depends on what you need in a board besides 10KL. 

ah Japanese, why not get Filco? they are superb (I own one), but lacking on the feature, Majestouch 2 line of products doesn't come with any other additional things other than the "basic" (nothing for volume etc), but there's the Camouflage type.. which "fills" it tho https://www.diatec.co.jp/en/det.php?prod_c=810

 

So, I have spent a ton on my rig while skimping on the peripherals. I already bought a mouse (logitech g303) because my old orochi gave out on me, and I think now would be a great time to replace my 10 dollar ish keyboard.

 

Im currently thinking about the about to be released razer blackwidow x tournament edition, though I'd want to opt for the orange switches. 

 

The corsair k65 *was* an option until i realized that the non backlit version only had cherry mx reds. 

 

So I'm turning to you guys, what would be a good buy if I'm searching for a tkl mechanical keyboard that has cherry mx browns/razer orange or similar switches? Price isn't really a matter if performance wise, I'm getting what I pay for. Oh and if it helps, I'm currently in Japan.

Look at the WASD tenkeyless. Expensive, but very customizable and well built. You buy directly from WASD so no local markup and their shipping is "reasonable", all things considered.

That's expensive, because the TK was the cheapest tenkeyless mechanical keyboards I know.

Romer G are pretty similar to that of MX browns

Hell, Romer G is an omron made switch from Japan in cooperation with Logitech. Probably find G410 really easily in Japan.

ah Japanese, why not get Filco? they are superb (I own one), but lacking on the feature, Majestouch 2 line of products doesn't come with any other additional things other than the "basic" (nothing for volume etc), but there's the Camouflage type.. which "fills" it tho https://www.diatec.co.jp/en/det.php?prod_c=810
