Should anything happen Amazon will take care of you. With Steelseries that might not be the case and if they do it's going to take a while.

Wait OP is not taking advantage of discount?  Hope they don't run out of what you want come payday for you.

I actually grabbed the 6GV2 when I saw ripster forward this thread @OCN

I was really suppose to get the 6GV2 atAmazon today, but thanks to ripster forwarding this I saved even more.  I had to share the love so I posted this @ Slickdeals.net

Well that's just absurd, I mean you atleast deserve the credit by sharing this in a different community.  I would have never knew about this deal if it weren't for you or for the OP.

Hmm....7G out of stock again.  I still think they must be getting ready for the 7GV2.
7G back in stock.

Although after dragging my feet about it all night, I headed over to order a Kinzu and now those are out of stock.

The Ikari seems good, never tried one myself but I see lots of people using it.
Though I'd say the 6G is worth it, not too expensive and from what I've seen it's a solid keyboard.

for 99.99, it is not worthy it. But for 75 bucks, it's not a bad deal.
Ikari seems pretty popular among my friends. Pretty good for gaming.

For a Danish company they really screwed that Enter key up.


Keep giving me REP POINTS AT OCN!  I'm almost at 100.  It think that would make me UnBannable and I could start giving my opinion in the OCN Mechanical Keyboard Guide thread.


I will give you a rep point if you admit that the BIG european/asian is superior to the american enter key. Everyone else in the world use the BIG enter and love it

I am fine with any kind of enter key.
Just like I am OK with the use of either foot or meter, gallon or liter, pound or kilogram, and Fahrenheit or Celsius/Kelvin.

US layout keyboards are a lot more aesthetically pleasing in my opinion, with all keys being the same height. All the mechanical keyboards I own (except for the ss6g) are US layout, and I much prefer it (except for the lack of a £ - but I guess I could remap it).

They only had the 6gv2 Medal of Honor version in stock when I just checked, not the standard 6v2 or 7.  I wanted to try blacks, but it looks like their website is messed up.  It won't let me enter my state (the field isn't even showing up, and I tried tabbing through every field), so I can't place my order.

Maybe that's a cosmic power telling me I shouldn't spend more money.

EDIT: There it goes.  The internet flaked out in the middle of the checkout page load, so even though my browser said the page load was complete it really wasn't.

Well, I am impressed with the size of these Asian enter keys more than the size of the playahs.  I wouldn't be surprised if the enter key is bigger than this guy's ****.

Are you sure that's not a 14 year old girl with short hair? I think I see something that resembles breasts.

Ripster, can you please remove the image of the small girl with a large enter key who is being viewed by many men who do not know her? I am uncomfortable about her situation.

Or at least an OCN Ducky?
