Title: WTB: CMStorm QFR
Post by: BoxWithADot on Mon, 04 February 2013, 21:55:22
Like the title says! I'd like either MX Blue or brown, but red is okay as well. Would also like it without all the branding. Lemme know!

I just got a QFR with Blues for $55 a little over a week ago. Now they have it for $64, I doubt it you will get it much cheaper from a private seller. From what I was reading, they are coming without the branding from Amazon.

Did yours come with branding? That's the main reason I'm trying the classifieds, I would rather be sure it didn't have branding.

I only bought for the Phantom project so I sent it to TheProfosist so I don't know.

I recently got one from Newegg which came unbranded.  If you are willing to pay a couple bucks more then you can get one guaranteed to be unbranded from mechanicalkeyboards.com:

As far as I know, all Rapids from Amazon now come unbranded. I ordered one with Blues back when they were $55.

Ahh, okay. I may just pick one up off Amazon and cross my fingers unless someone comes along in the next few days  :) thanks for all the information!

The $55 one I got off amazon WAS branded. FWIW

Regardless of branding, I plan on sanding it and re painting it red when my phantom is ready to be built :)

PM Caaaarrrt, he has a CM painted red with Blues. Shipping to Texas would suck though.. .but worth a thought.

I plan on painting it another color as well once I get it back. I didn't like the rubber coating that much on the case.

How do you paint these cases? I have one coming in the mail and would really love it to be red!

ZING!

I think there are some painting guides around the site.

CM Storms come in anything but Cherry Blue?  That's an exciting tidbit!

I just received my discounted and rebate CM Storm from Newegg today.  I know my cow-orkers would prefer those Browns.

Yeah they come in Brown, Red, Blue, Black, and Green as far as I know. Although they all won't be the same price.
