After my other deal on the Impact 600, I thought I'd post this one too.
The price is slightly higher and unfortunately there is no backlight, however, I still think this is a great price for what looks like a good quality mechanical keyboard!

Nobody has bought more than one single unit of either deal so far
that's what happens to hotter deals... they go fast .... for that reason...

Great that they're Cherry MX Blue switches too - would be tempted if I didn't just buy a lighty-uppy Outemu switch one recently.

Haha same. Got myself an RGB Outemu Blue keyboard. Pretty loud but I absolutely love it

But you meant it about this deal, which is a lie.

Cherry MX Blue is a terrible choice for gaming. Good price if you need a keyboard for work and find the annoying click somehow soothing.

It's a massive exaggeration. They are by no means terrible for gaming, but they are not as ideal as some other switches, I.e. cherry red and blacks.
Bit hazy on the facts now, so sorry if it's incorrect. The blue switches disengage at a higher point than reds or blacks, which means if you're spamming a button repeatedly, your finger has to do more work.
In practice, they are fine for gaming and if you do a lot of typing, the small compromise is worth it.
