I was going to post this anyway, before my inbox showed today's email from Massdrop.
A while ago I ordered the Cherry MX demo keypad from the CM Store, liking the idea that the $15 would be credited towards a purchase. The keypad required $1.90 for shipping. I knew I wanted MX-brown, but since the cost would be applied I to a purchase I thought I would be safe and ordered it anyway.
Last week I ordered the Stealth model from them and the shipping was another $12+. Together, the total spent on the CM Store was $104.23
Then I noticed that on Amazon the same keyboard is $95 including shipping.
Forgetting about the demo board completely that is still about $5 less via Amazon.
Now I get this email from Massdrop and it's $74 with shipping?

I will say that it is a good solid/stable keyboard and I like the clean look. I type with the keyboard way out in front of me so I can support my forearms on my desk. In that mode I have a full view of the lettering on the front sides of the keys. I didn't want complete stealth anyway -- I just didn't want to see all of that other stuff they print on the QFR.
Also, I never game -- just typing and coding for me -- and it's working out well. The red LED on the caps lock key is easier to spot than an LED up in the corner so that's good. And overall I like the feel and the sound. One concern is mat-rubber finish. I sometime I rest my fingers around the arrow cluster and now after 2 days there is enough skin oil on the rubbery finish to make it shine in that area. Maybe after a while all of the rubbery areas will look the same.
