Should I buy the K60 or the K70? I'm in Portugal so buying the K60 would cost me 130(~166$) euros and the K70 would cost me 200(~255$) euros, which one should i get?
 
Solution
If you don't mind a few keys feeling different. Yea K60 , the vendor being Newegg? Yea if they charged me 60USD for shipping I would lose my mind.
I looked them up, it just depends. Do you want the one with all the bells and whistles for an extra $70 or would you rather save that and get K60 which probably performs pretty close to K70 just without some features.
Honestly $130 for a keyboard that thing should be QUALITY.
You could spend that $70 on a SSD for OS if you dont already have one.
or use that $70 to buy a sweet mouse to compliment the K70
 


Is there no difference to the way the two keyboard work?
 
Googled K60 vs K70
All I really noticed was that K70 every key has same mechanical switches.
K60 some keys had different switches than others. This gave the different keys a different feel when clicking them which is what I read most people were happy about K70 upgrade switches.
 


Everything is cheaper in the US, and here it would normally be 160 euros, but shipping raises it 40 euros
 
Thats insane. 40 euro for shipping? Any particular reason for such high shipping? Shipping for something so light here would cost around 2-4 USD for 4-7 business days if not FREE. Wtf is going in the UK? Is it hard to access your area?
 


It's because it'snot amazon shipping it's a vendor that just sells stuff through there, I should get the k60 right? Because of the price.
 
Try to find it somewhere else first. Your local stores, spending 30 euros in gas and having it the same day is better than gettin effed in the aye week long shipping. Then again how much gas does 30 euro buy? Do I even want to know?
