BIN $33.99 + free US shipping

These are light, sturdy, tastefully designed. Deskthority's Romer-G page (https://deskthority.net/wiki/Logitech_Romer-G) describes the switches thus:

Quote from: Deskthority.net

The switch is tested to 70 million keystrokes, which makes it one of the highest rated keyboard switches in production. As a light tactile switch, the Romer-G has been compared in feel to the Cherry MX Brown switch by those who have tried it.

This is the lowest price I've seen on these Logitech-refurbished boards. (A manufacturer-refurbished product is one where a minor defect has been fixed, and the product looks and operates like new. K840s are $80+ new on Amazon.)
