These are returned boards to amazon, probably someone tried it and returned it. I'd say a great price for a starting board, but that's just because I love me some blues.

Got mine today, exactly as I expected, still smells like a fresh keyboard. Obviously YMMV.

Where do you live that newegg shipping is bad? I usually get things next day with the free shipping option. Also, if someone is so strapped they can't wait on $15 for a few months, they might not want to be spending so much on a keyboard. That being said, I have a that same board with a black case and I'm glad to know I can (hopefully) get at least a somewhat reasonable price for it.

good price for a 104 Costar quality board, shame OP you missed out while a go, there were Rosewills NIB at new egg with mx reds for $23 shipped. I believe New Egg made a horrible mistake, probably thousands of boards got sold in matter of few hours

newegg shipping is always 5 days to get to me, Amazon Prime is 2 :P

Not worth the $80 or w/e a year with Prime being $40 for students.

I had the 2-week free trial, they wouldn't let me cancel and charged me $80 for the year I had it :/ I'm not a fan of shoprunner.
