****SOLD****

Hi, I bought a CMStorm Quick Fire Rapid with MX Red switches from PCHome a month ago. This is a tenkeyless board with CoStar stabilizers and has NKRO with PS/2.

Includes original box and all accessories.

I'll selling it for $90 locally around Middlesex, MA or $90 + shipping cost

It's been kept in a clean work environment and looks almost new.

Linear isn't for me unfortunately. I'm going to stick with browns.

I would totally jump on it if it were with browns! I love them as well. How did you enjoy the functionality of this board?

I'm actually typing on it right now. I do enjoy how "solid" it feels. But, I realize that it's going to take me longer than I'm willing to spend to get used to not having any tactile response and not having a numpad. I used it at work for three weeks until I realized that I can't live without a numpad; my case numbers are eight digit numeric. >.< You don't realize what you need it for till it's gone. I miss using my mouse hand's thumb to hit the enter key!

Then bought it home where I ran though MW3, BF3, a few games of SC2, and a dozen hours in Skyrim. For gaming (on a bright monitor), it's great! But for typing, I need something tactile. And unfortunately for me, to qualify as a "gaming" keyboard, I need back-lit keys because I play in the dark. I've been using a XArmor U9BL-S (below). That is, I can't have a lamp on because it washes out the colors from the digital projector.

GL HF!

Browns have become my go-to switch for all purposes. Good luck with selling.

I never realized how much I did this as well until I went to a tenkeyless. I still reach for it on occasion.

^ I used to do this too, but it is mostly because I was used to having the numpad. Typing the numbers without the numpad is just as fast once you get used to it, and tenkeyless is much more comfortable for me. I also like reds more then browns now, I kind of bottom out for the feedback >.< but it feels a lot nicer having a nice smooth travel.

Bump - dropping price a bit.

This is a good deal. Will be an awesome board once the keycaps are replaced IMO

GL!

Is this still for sale?

Hi Steve, unfortunately I'm discussing the details with someone else at the moment, but if it falls though, I'll be sure to send you a PM.
Thank you!

I'm not interested in buying ; aren't these keyboards basically rebadged Filcos?

I remember reading something like that. Costar stabilizers too.

And that Rosewill Reds are rebadged 104 key Filcos.
