Looking for a keyboard around $50 to $60 at most with blues or browns for my girlfriend. Just let me know what you have.

lol, i read the title as " WTB a girlfriend" :-X

You can get a nice mechanical brand new for $50, easy. Try a QFR at Newegg.
Also, unless she specifically asked for one, she doesn't want a keyboard.

QFRs are $90 on Newegg and blues are out of stock.

Yeah with those you have to wait for the deals.

try monoprice i saw yesterday they have blues for less than 60

Don't buy her one with blues. Clicking fingernails on keys are already annoying enough... believe me, you don't want even more noise with blues. Save some more money and buy her a HHKB Type-S.

Idk most girls tend to like LEDs and pink stuff, maybe some flocked or glittered keycaps? Or a white poker 2 (modded by you with pink LEDs) and that nyan cat key set would put you In good standing for about $130. Plus I'm sure she would appreciate the fact that you modded it for her. Blues might be wierd and too loud for most people. She may not appreciate the fact that a keyboard cost as much as designer bag... Without the designer bag

This is an incredible over-generalization, FWIW.

Don't want to thread crap so this will be my last comment. After rereading this it did sound a tad misogynistic and stereotypical of a modern woman. However I went down this road in February with my girlfriend of 4 years whom wanted a keyboard for school. After hours of searching through different boards we found a cute ducky mini and a set of pink shine caps. After seeing the price she told me she doesn't need a keyboard that expensive. Everything I posted above is my personal experience with dabbling with OPs question, and I understand not all woman are like this, and I wasn't trying to stereotype females in a negative "tv sitcom" way. Just don't expect her to be completely over joyed that you bought her a $300 keyboard if she's not really into keyboards as much as we are.

Thanks for the clarification :).

She likes the blues because shes used my qfr. She actually hates pink and doesnt grow her nails out. Just gonna end up getting her a QFR unless i get a better offer. Were redoing her whole gaming pc so she does care about hardware.
