Only £1 cheaper than competitors makes me a sad panda!

Nice price on the mobo though - wonder if it's plagued by the issues affecting its bigger brothers?
 
Still, gives you no excuse to not get a bloody good mouse, had mine for nearly a year now and I still love it.

The price is good, probably the cheapest or very close on the web. I'm sure the mouse used to be about £18 for ages though. I'm surprised Logitech haven't replaced this model with something newer though. If they used it's reliable and accurate performance and wrapped it into a more comfy shape, with a nicer design, they may well sell even more than they do already. Just a thought as it seems a little stale after all these years. Sure if it ain't broke, don't fix it, but PC peripherals is a dynamic market, I'm surprised how this mouse persists in it's current form. The best choice for the ~£20 mice, no doubt.
 
well that will be this months additions to my new build :D

just got to keep telling myself its got to be done bit by bit and not all at once haha
 
Any point in upgrading it from an A4Tech X7-48 (5UB, you should have heard of it if you're as good at and knowledgeable around CS/:S as you seem :p)?

I personally would, maybe because I am bias and I have an MX518 personally. I purchased mine many years ago and it is still going. - Not used the A4Tech X7-48 myself, however from the feedback and responses on every forum I have visited the Logitech MX518 must be the most recommended mouse ever made.

The price and the quality, the performance and the reliability. The mouse is absolutely fantastic and I am sure there are many people that agree too. :)
 
Have to agree had my MX518 about 4 years now never missed a beat apart from when I spilt coke on it, I just took it apart cleaned it and its good as new excellent mouse.

If in 6 weeks from now you have a price drop to oh, say £16-7 I hereby swear to buy one!

(Exams for next 6 weeks, and don't want to do anything that may lure me back to gaming until they're over :p)
