Wow.  Crazy good deal there!

EDIT:  Was this the beginning of the Wootoff?  If so, it's no more.

It's refurbished, that's why they can offer it at such a price.

I think I'll hang and get the QuickFire for $30 more. IIRC, refurb doesn't have warranty and the BW doesn't have NKRO.

it was about 5-6 in: good deal for those who got it.

Me, I just want one to finally try blues, or to harvest switches from.

Where would one acquire a CM Storm QuickFire for $70USD?

Woot-Offs suck rocks.  I can't be bothered.
But I do buy lots of things from Woot! but I hate Woot-offs.
