Here's a UK outlet for mechboards: http://www.kustompcs.co.uk/acatalog/Ducky_Mechanical_Keyboard.html http://www.kustompcs.co.uk/acatalog/Cherry_MX_Brown.html
And some ducky boards that are in your price range.
Using browns myself after changing from a Razer BWU board with Blues.

If the OP can wait for about 8 or 9 months for the 7 series. As again the rumour at the moment is the last quarter of 2013 for the 7 series release.
