Hi everyone.

I have been visited this forum quite a few times for finding fixes to quite a few of my computer problems and recently reading over reviews and experiences with mechanical keyboards. I never really bothered making an account since i never posted here but after reading up on some very helpful info on mechanical keyboards, i decided to make an account and post.

While just browsing around for interesting things on sale, i stumbled upon N C I X .com selling the Steelseries 6GV2 for $69.99 CAD instead of the standard $99.99 price. If you directly go to N C I X and search up the 6GV2, it will show you its price still as $99 so to get the deal you would have to go into their new years deals and scroll down, you will indeed find it on sale and following that link will give you the reduced price.

I have posted the link below if incase anyone is also interested in purchasing it. Its 1 per customer and only valid till the 12th of January i believe.

Sorry if this this isn't the correct section for posting this as i should have created this thread in the Deals section but being my first post, i was unable to do so. If a moderator would move this thread to that section, it would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks everyone for all the informative stuff on the forums.This was the least i could do as an expression of gratitude. Hopefully people will find this helpful.

Edit*

Was having trouble posting the link so ill post the savings code instead. I believe it can be entered at checkout for the $30.00 instant rebate as well.

Savings Code: 54386-1276
 
Thanks for the heads up. I own two of these keyboards, one on my desktop and one in my living room. I came off of a Filco and I much prefer the SteelSeries, they're excellent.
 
Probably should post this in the Hotdeals section, any word on if it's available on their US site as well? I'd probably jump on it.
 
Can't post it in Hot Deals since this is only my second post and deals requires atleast 50 posts. However it would be nice if a mod could also move this thread there or maybe repost it. And I have no idea if it is in the US site. I'm from Toronto so i can't really tell you whether it would be on sale. You can try going to the US site and then browsing the New Years Deals section and it might be there.

EDIT*

Went to N C I X and switched to their US site which is N C I X U S . com and they do have it for sale under their " New Years Sales " as well for $69.30 USD.
 
Man I was going to wait on buying this but for $69 i don't think I can, is it free shipping? Sick deal.


It's $69.30 + $20 for the cheapest shipping, kills the deal for me, I'd rather order from amazon for $10 more.

Great deal. I had a chance to test a 7G at Fry's (they finally put one on display) and I didn't care for th Cherry MX Black switches at all. If you think you'll like them, I'd pick one up.
 
Well if you live in the GTA you can pick the keyboard up at their store and there is no need to pay for shipping then.
 
The thing that killed the 7G/6Gv2 for me was that they got rid of the left windows key on the keyboard. I find the ability on the Razer Blackwidow Ultimate to turn the key off a much more elegant solution. I use shortcuts that rely on that key pretty often and it would take me forever to learn to use the right one, and then it still wouldn't work as well as it would be impossible to do many of them one handed.
 
I made the mistake of buying a Razer Lycosa after my Logitech Wave (corded) got all messy since i dropped chocolate milk on it. A couple months later i stumbled across the article on mechanical keyboards and have wanted one since as i remember using a couple when i was a kid in computers class.

I was also looking at the Razer Blackwidow but was not too pleased with the noise of the blues. Its nice to hear the click clack but i know ill get annoyed of it after a week or so and hate it. Also the Lycosa didn't really leave a good feel either as it is just poorly built and suffers from ridiculous issues such as media keys acting up on their own, keys getting locked up software wise so i have to physically disconnect the keyboard and reconnect it in order for it to start working.

The missing windows key does suck but i only use it rarely so it shouldn't be too huge of an issue.

@master noran

That's the exact thing im doing since one of their stores is just down the street from my college so ill just go down there once my order is ready and pick it up. So my final price only ended up being $79.54 with taxes.
