they are expensive because there are zero corners cut.

your keyboard is your primary interface with your computer and should be a top consideration for where to spend your money in my opinion.

a quality keyboard and peripheral set makes using your system more enjoyable.

a mechanical keyboard will outlast the period of usefulness of a high end graphics card. This makes it a much more appealing investment.

I personally dont understand computing enthusiasts who dont use high quality peripherals.

Preach brother preach. Nothing like the feel of a solid mechanical keyboard to get you through the day!
 
I would say that its because they only come in the single backlight colour meaning production costs less.

thats just an experienced guess though so dont take it as gospel.

we just put our pricing in line with Ducky's UK msrp as do the other Ducky resellers so I never really questioned or recognised the price difference until you mentioned it actually

Thanks, also I see that the whites mention nothing about being supplied with a second space bar (the one with the duck on it)?

massive apologies from our side here

ducky UK inform me that we have these listed at the wrong price and were actually below our cost.

the price is actually £139.99

anyone who had posted in the thread already and was interested about buying, please post in the product suggestion forum and I will honour the originally advertised price as a one off.

apologies for any confusion.

Comes with the Duck spacebar as well.

No love for the Snake one it seems lets hope the YOTH one will be better.

For me, you've got a cool ducky logo and a cool name, the snake just doesn't work or fit in for me personally, also maybe have a bigger ducky logo on the space bar?

What's YOTH?
 
I thought this one seemed cheap.

I actually quite like the snake. I definitely wanted red leds and couldn't find the Zero in red, so went for the Shine 3 with red back lighting.

Just to confirm - the white keycap set was priced correctly, but I shouldn't expect to receive the Duck spacebar with it? (ie the set only comes with the 'standard' spacebar, not 2)
