    Here is the link

    Showing out of stock at the moment. I only just ordered one of these from Amazon a few days ago for a lot more than this.

    Still out of stock get the feeling some guys getting his P45 for putting this one up. Currys UK are charging £150 and its £120 in Amazon. Lucky people who got that deal tbh.

    god damn I want this

    the price is a steal

    also if you add the quantity you want and take it away the add to cart button appears

    but it doesn't actually adds it to the cart :(

    I had this method working before with a set of Eclipse speaker they had on listing but saying it's out of stock

    edit again, http://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B00CJUM3NQ/ref=olp_product_details?ie=UTF8&me=

    Amazon has the price lowered, it's at 89.99 POUNDS atm, good price

    but curry's price is better, if they ever have it in stock......

    Should I just go for Amazon?

    I recently bought a k70 with blue switches from overclockers.co.uk. I had been keeping an eye on Amazon for the longest time, and spotted it there for £90 + Delivery, worked out at £102 altogether, which was a good bit less than Amazon had them listed.

    You seem to want red switches, can be gotten for the same price in both black and grey:

    https://www.overclockers.co.uk/showproduct.php?prodid=KB-025-CS

    its a far cry from €69.99 on currys, but it was the best value i spotted for a k70, and i had been looking for a while! So i'd say have a look at these before you go for Amazon.

    Overclockers doesn't include shipping though and Amazon does.

    I'm actually looking for a brown, but reds would do I guess.

    http://www.overclockers.co.uk/showproduct.php?prodid=KB-024-CS&groupid=702&catid=2705&subcat=2709

    they have it in brown too for the same price, seems like a good deal, how much was shipping for you?


    Also I rang up currys and asked about the keyboard, apparently they are not in-stock anywhere, but the man said that they will be back in stock in a week or ten days time:p

    expect the price to shoot back up to its original price then, hate Currys/Pcworld pricing strategy.

    They have Browns, Reds and Blues there for the same price, delivery was £7.25 (not sure if before or after VAT). Total charged to my card was €128 and pennies, so it wasnt too bad!

    Wherever you might decide to buy it from you won't be disappointed, stunning keyboard imo. I got the K70 black version with brown switches (wanted it for work and gaming) and absolutely love it. Got mine from dabs.ie at the time.

    The page on Currys is gone, but you can still find it if you searched for it, the price is the same.

    I went into the shop in Airside to take a look at it, they have one in-stock on the shelf, but the price is 149.99.

    I even asked one of the guys there to check it for me, after he scanned it it's still 149.99

    Seems like Currys is no go for me, Overclockers seems like the best choice!

    Saw it was gone from the website yesterday evening. Probably one the best deals you'll ever see from Currys Ireland i think. Gonna buy it from Amazon myself .£109 for the Red as off now. If you want more a typing/gaming hybrid the brown switch is now £90 which aint bad €112.
