Pretty good deal for a mechanical gaming keyboard from JB.
Aus wide shipping for $2.50
EXPIRED: Was probably a pricing error, the Apex [Raw], a much lesser keyboard, was exactly the same price

Click is a matter of personal preference
Mechanical keyboards don't have to click to be mechanical. There's different types of cherry mech switches. Some click loud and some don't click at all. Basically the switch that don't click are better for gaming. This keyboard has cherry black switch which is as silent as they get. That key switch is great for gaming.
Is this durable? Would you recommend this above other models of similar pricing?
well that is very subjective, i prefer playing with blue.
I assume you mean they as in relative to the other mechanical switches, My keyboard is cherry black and I wouldn't call it silent by any stretch of the imagination.
they seem to be around this price from quite a few places on staticice? but good if you shop exclusively at jb i guess?
Shipping for other places usually starts at $12+ depending on where you're located, this is flat rate oz (Don't forget this is a 1.2KG keyboard)
Expired? It's $129 now.
So it expired 40 minutes after being posted!
I have one of these, it's a good keyboard, but I found that some keys come off if you hit it hard and quick.
You can still bash the keys if you're a gamer, but if you move your finger away too quickly, esp with the pg dn key, it comes off pretty easily…
Easily put back on tho, so for 80 bucks its pretty sweet
No click, but still makes a nice sound when you push keys
I've got one too but my pg dn key doesn't come off, nor any others no matter what punishment I've given them… How old is yours? Or perhaps you have a faulty model.
BTW the sound only happens when you 'bottom out' the key, which admittedly is pretty easy to do. They're almost silent otherwise which is great for when you're on the phone.
Mines a year old, still loving it
expired. damn i kinda wanted this…. my cherry blue keyboard is delicious for typing but just isn't that good for games
I have the 7G for my home use and I think I will get one for my office use too. If the 6G is anything like the 7G (minus the wristpad which I think is invaluable), then I highly recommend it. Solid feel, etching stays on and has never missed a beat. Criticism, USB-1 connectors.
The 6G ditches the USB hub to save money anyway
it says black in the ad.
and no click? no deal.
