100 and you get 20$ gift card... essentially making it 80bucks... VERY highly doubt you won't be able to find something you want on newegg in the near future.

WASD, Filco, etc.

A small number of controller issues are out there. It doesn't appear to be a problem with a majority of the boards, but it's worth mentioning so that yr friend can test his for the reported issues and RMA if needed before time runs out. (some are key combo oddness that one might not stumble across until the RMA period has passed).

All that aside, they're damn fine boards, and for the money, only WASD is comparable. ;)

idk about rosewill keyboard quality, oddly enough they make shredders?! and this 30$ so far is the only shredder that can take a beating, and i've bought at least 1 50$ shredder from staples every 6months, they all break down (the plastic gears melt) staples/fellows whatever brand (i can't bring myself to buy a 200$ shredder), but this rosewill shredder awesome!

Rosewill is just a newegg in-brand.  These keyboards are produced for them by Filco as evidenced by the branding on the controller boards.  Though there seems to be a few shoddy controller boards in the bunch, I can say from personal experience that they are high quality keyboards.
