Never question Razer! They are all knowing pros who never get anything wrong. Only the best.

What switches are these?
Tempting.

I believe they are Blues. Stealth would be Browns.

For an intro into mechanical boards, $40 ain't too bad. (Still hate that bottom row though).
You could do a lot worse:

What in the hell is that monstrosity?

Just an FYI, this looks to be US only. It's asking me for my State when I try to add an address.

Would buy if they were blacks. I'm honestly complexed by Razer, they try to go with the gamer stereotypes so much, but put blue/brown switches in their kbs over black/reds?

I think there was a thermaletake board on sale recently with blacks that was only around $40.

Yep. Sold out before I could grab :( If I can justify the ergodox price I'll be getting it in blacks.

To mention ergodox on a thread discussing the blackwidow is a travesty! ;D ;D ;D
No one talks about Bentleys on a thread discussing Honda Civics!
Can I interest you in swapping your ergodox for a 2010 Razer Blackwidow? ;D ;D ;D Be happy to pay shipping both ways!

So do they actually replace the stock springs?? or I wonder if they bought enough to get cherry to do it?
-
Blues have 50g actuation force normally. Browns and reds: 45g. I don't think they've changed anything--just marketing words to make their stuff seem special.

Oh ok. I thought they were trying to say there blue's were different.

WTF out of stock?

Someone said (different thread) another Razer model was quoted to have 45g actuation force but had Blues. I hadn't checked it myself, but Razer does love putting Blues everywhere ;)

Compared to anything Razer has put out.. the ERgodox is an Ffffing Deathstar...
the Razer is a tricycle with a dildo for a seat. I can't argue that it appeals to certain crowds.

Tends to happen with a crazy good deal ;)

Bummer, tried to order last night on my phone and was having to go through like 12 steps just to order...said I'd do it today, and now its gone.
Oh well.

I dunno mate, my Razer was my introduction to the mechanical keyboard world. I'm not one for any of that garbage, gamer branding with LEDs everywhere. I ended up painting the case of my Blackwidow purple because that gloss finish they put on it was disgustingly tacky... and then harvested it's switches when I decided it's existence in my home was a little below me. But let's be real here, the whole tricycle with a dildo analogy kind of falls over when you stop and think that most of the people buying these Blackwidows have never owned a mechanical keyboard before. To upgrade from a disgusting, spongy, generic board to a low end mech board is kind of a miracle to those experiencing it. If you can go ahead and link us all to a higher quality board being sold at $40 then you'll be my personal messiah.
