This is the Cherry MX Brown version. Browns are the middle-ground between Red and Blue - some tactile feedback but without the loud clickyness of the blues.
Lowest I've seen - previous best on here was £69.99 at Scan.

Mine arrived. I had to call them via Skype to confirm the order as per the email and previous comments. Keyboard arrived and is as new. The only flaw over new I can see is its got a tiny scratch above the cursor keys that is hardly noticable. Great keyboard for the price and recommend the MX Brown for daily use + gaming.

Just ordered. In fact there are loads of models (from K40 to K95 RGB and other switches such as red/blue in stock) if you searched for the term 'refurbished' on the website under Shop.

Deal still valid - just ordered. The cheapest Cherry MX Brown keyboard. Hopefully the refurb is "as new". Not a gamer but pro keyboards are so expensive.

Did you actually have to give them a call to confirm the order?
Ive just ordered from Corsair website and got an email asking me the exact same thing...

Just got one, amazing condition. Packaged well, you even get a new set of the wasd and number keys with the key removing tool. Thanks to OP. (I know this is an old deal but still best I could see.)

Call the US?
LOL.
No I placed the order, exactly like I would order from say Amazon.
Waited 2-3 days. Then it arrived at my door.
Online orders don't require phone calls...to my knowledge.

I think mine took about 2 days. Maybe 3 days.
I have had the keyboard for a few weeks now and its performed flawlessly; very well built.
I'd have preferred it to be a little bit heavier, but this is a minor quibble.
9/10 from me.
The only problem is macro keys - there are none.
To get around this, I use a program called AUTOHOTKEY.

Nope, it comes from the Netherlands... although you may want to order within the next 2 years :wink:

ordered mine. all good.
is there any sort of import tax to pay on this?
No, I think the LED is gone on my down arrow key as all the other keys light up regardless of the mode.
On a seperate note, there's a hidden feature if you press CTRL and the Mode button, it lights the keys up as you press them....quite cool!

Are you sure it's not just in the mode where individual keys can but turned off and on?

Absolutely love it.

Received mine this morning, looks and feels brand new. It's amazing to type on and I can't believe I didn't get a mechanical keyboard sooner. Thanks OP!

Hi, i got an e mail conformation, but i had to order twice, as the first time failed. when i went back to site my item was still in the basket...might be worth checking?

How did you find this link OP? I can't seem to find any other corsair refurbs, including this one(apart from this link)
mtj111 to metalnigel
12 Jun 161#18
I originally found it by pasting the product number into Google just before I was about to buy from Scan. You can find other refurbs by searching "refurbished" in the store.
I'm sure a few days ago these were listed in the product catalogue sections too, but I can't see them there now.
Another thing to mention is that the 1-6 and WASD keys are completely normal by default, but the keyboard comes with those curved replacements too if you want to swap them out for a gaming session.

Thanks OP. Been waiting for a few years now to pull the trigger on buying a mechanical keyboard. Always been a gamepad person on the PC so I'm hoping a mechanical will encourage me to start using a keyboard for games.

Hot for the price, just a word of warning though - if you look at the laybout they've moved the \ key to under the Backspace.

Absolute steal at this price. I would imagine a refurb ought to come in a very good condition given they can replace the key caps easily and should look good as new.
I have the k70 with Brown switches and for me it is the perfect keyboard. Has the slight tactile feedback which is great for typing but also has smoothness for gaming. As for the noise, it's not super loud but it does have a very premium sounding click, it's not over the top but it is not a silent keyboard.
Absolutely love my K70.

What's the warranty on refurbs?

One year I think.
Going to take the plunge with this one, I think it's a great price coming from Corsair themselves. My first mechanical keyboard too.
