Cherry Brown/Red Keyboard for $70

[DoubleB]

So I'm looking to buy my first mechanical keyboard and after doing my research I think I've decided I would like either Red or Brown switches. My budget is fairly tight so I would like to spend $70 or less. Does anyone know of any keyboards that are in this price price range? I'm fine with either full size or ten-keyless.

QuickFire Rapid is a great first MechKeyboard, same build quality as some more expensive stuff, with a great price

I got my first QFR Blue on Amazon for $64. I haven't seen anything cheaper in its quality range.

Keep your eyes open, they routinely go for $65 new.  I think I actually picked mine up for less than that.

Blues go for $65 new, but browns and reds don't. At least not routinely. Just check Amazon price history.

EDIT: But if you were talking about something other than a QFR, like a Rosewill, then that's a different story.

I got my Blacks for less than $65.  Browns seem to stay high and I've seen Reds go down quite a few times, but Blues and Blacks are the most common on sale.

I got my Rosewill with Reds for $35.

Off of Reddit.  Now it's in the middle of a switch swap and paint job.
