Might be a pricing error, not sure. But I can't get it because they dont ship these boards to NY :( definitely cheap though and worth trying even if it ends in a cancellation

Just ordered one. This is legit.

Also, I had a $20 Newegg Promo card, so I got it for $5. Free two-day shipping with ShopRunner. :D

It is a broken bundle I assume but I stumbled across it yesterday and bought 5 to make sure it worked. They shipped out today so I assume all is well.

This is kind of an insane deal. Even if you only need MX Red Switches it is worth it to buy and desolder them for another board. I got one for myself and several more for other friends late Christmas presents. I'll be giving the CPUs away here for people that can actually use them.

I wish I could've bought one - I've been looking for cheap keyboards to gift to my little brother. I'm a little sad that people would buy these simply to resell at profit, but such is the world.

You know what's interesting - I've never seen "SOLD OUT" on Newegg before.

Several other boards are also sold out but do not have the price removed.

Perhaps this model is discontinued?

The Brown version now says both Sold Out and Discontinued.

If it said refurbished then they are probably just giving u old Rosewills that ppl returned as defective.  Of which there is a constant, large supply.

My Rosewill started dying at less than 30 days old and is completely freaking out now.

But I need some $5.00 keycaps for conducting experiments so I would get some just for the caps.

NewEgg constantlys bombs my email address with ads.  I have been reading every one very carefully looking for cheap keycaps.  I never saw this ad in my mailbox.  Someone posted it to GH 5 mins after I went to bed so I missed it.

Only the CPU was listed as refurbished, the board was listed as new.

Personally, I got one to test out reds on a full board, and I plan on harvesting them for future builds. So quality of the PCB is irrelevant to me.

NewEgg does bombard in-boxes with all kinds of stupid deals, however I don't think this one was advertised, I'm thinking someone was just browsing the newegg combo deals and stumbled upon it.

Depends how much you shop on newegg. I do qutie a bit and the ads seem to get more 'tailored' to the type of stuff I have bought in the past. Though I do still get some of the generic ones for the 48hr sales on rice cookers and so on.
Really wish I would have seen this deal while it was still available. Defineatly could have done with such a good price on red switch for some projects.

These boards have a spotty history of PCB failure, and there are plenty of custom keyboards PCBs that are soon to be sold (Phantom, GH60, Korean customs) that require you to buy switches from somewhere. Which is a bit tricky in that most places don't sell cherry switches, or if they do, they're $.80/each and not necessarily the switch color you want.

So getting a 104 switch board for $27 means you paid $.26 a switch and you got some free keycaps to destroy :P

I hate that I didn't see this in time. Hey if anybody bought these just to harvest the switches, I would be interested in some or all of the leftovers parts (case, board, plate, etc). Just hit me up and let me know what you want for it.

If anyone wants to sell me a couple of sets of Rosewill keycaps really cheap then I am always interested.  In fact I will probably continue to be interested until I have around 10 sets.  I need them for devious Keyboard Science experimentations (outlawed in 23 countries).  :p

So if u ever have any keycaps u want to sell, send me a msg.

I have no need of the switches, case, cables, or RED plate.

We'll probably have to wait until Monday before newegg will process any order further than charging. Lets all hope they don't cancel orders.

It's probably not being shipped because everyone ordered Friday evening and with UPS holiday schedule, they aren't doing ground shipping until 1/02. FedEx probably has something similar.

Yup. I hadn't either until I checked up on it since I've got 2 other keyboards besides this on their way to me.

yep shipping confirmation, if the keyboard itself after few months turns out not to have any problems with the cable connection I might order DS keycaps from SP in white on black to match the Rosewill logo.

I hate that I didn't see this in time. Hey if anybody bought these just to harvest the switches, I would be interested in some or all of the leftovers parts (case, board, plate, etc). Just hit me up and let me know what you want for it.

I got my shipping confirmation around 3:30pm yesterday.
I didn't do rush processing, but I did do shoprunner. I don't know if I am queued differently because of that.


Scheduled For Early Delivery On:
    Friday, 01/04/2013, By End of Day

Looks like I'll get mine tomorrow.

EDIT: newegg also ships things out from different places based on region... maybe this has to do with the timing as well.
I'm from the midwest, so mine came from TN, but per the slickdeals thread, people are getting confirmations from cali.

They actually cancelled your order?! I called customer service this morning to find out why mine hadn't shipped, and she sent an email to the warehouse to rt it out today. Just got a shipping notification a little while ago. I wonder if mine would have been cancelled had I not called.

Normally most of my orders from Newegg for these Rosewills come from TN, but this one is coming from CA. I bet their TN warehouse ran out of them.

It just pisses me off that I was one of the earlier orders, yet mine gets packed and shipped after others.

sheesh guys. Give newegg a break. They gave everyone a great deal over the holiday. It's expected there will be a few hiccups.
Now, I would probably be contacting newegg just the same to see if I can get a different rosewill keyboard or something.

However, there is no need to get so angry at them. I doubt it's personal.

They had some problems with my paypal account address not matching, which is total BS. I talked with both parties over the phone but when I called newegg after they canceled they agreed to honor the price when they restock.

yeah last LaserShip guy i saw was a month back, i ordered something on amazon and some guy with a rusted up early 90's minivan (i think chevy astro) shows up at my door, he has a magnetic sign on the back of his van "LaserShip", normal van, windows, no tinted windows and no extra locks, you could see the back was filled with packages ready to be stolen, just smash the window take and run.

Somebody should build a massively multi-processor system with all of these refurb Celerons.

Or, we could use them as keyboard controllers!

I'm both sad and happy I didn't get this deal. I would've used the switches on my Phantom in the future!

I'm glad that some people were able to take advantage of this deal!

I appreciate that jd. Just got a desoldering iron about to start pulling some switches off those wyse boards. Is it time intensive? I haven't done much desoldering. I did get an iron with the built in bulb thingy. I don't do enough rework to justify a nice one

I think I read somewhere that you can underclock/undervolt them pretty low though. I think it's got enough IO pins to support switches and RGBLED's on (say) a custom model M flex PCB. Just need to find somenoe who knows how to write some i386 code for it :p

Would anyone who got one of these be willing to part with just the keycaps? I'd be happy to cover the cost of shipping. I need some cheap key caps for my Das Ultimate at work so my company is more ok with me having expensed it. :)

Also if anyone has a few spare reds, let me know. I am intending on replacing the browns in the arrow keys with reds. :)

i finally got my board in and i have to say it is a pretty solid board, i was expecting a cheap crap board but other than the logo i actually like it

This is my first cherry MX board with a plate

i was going to originally harvest this board for springs and switches, but i actually found that to be unnecessary for now

i think instead i am going to de-solder most of the switches, lube them, put them back in and then put these KBC white pbt keys i have on it with o rings, should come out nicely, i can use it for gaming

gotta figure out how to cover the damn logo though......

delivered yesterday, picked it up today.  i have to say, i wasn't sure if i would like reds, but i think i do like them since they make it easier to just touch and go, whereas with browns you're more likely to bottom out since you have to push down a bit more if you want to be certain you actuate the switch.

But at that price, the switches alone are worth more than the cost of the board. Even if someone didn't want the board, they would probably desolder all the switches for other projects.

well i use my redswitches for the gh60 and a poker (have to buy some more or combine some with the blues from my blackwidow)

basically the rosewill will get a bunch of different switches and end up as a test board for all kinds of switches.
