The steelseries 6gv2 (which i own and love) and Blackwidow from Razer are both carried. They are all that bby carries in part because they do have the steelseries and razer names attached. The steelseries is easy to unpack and pack back up so you can definitely try it out easily. The balckwidow also has a small plastic window where you can try the arrow keys. I know the arrow keys arent much but they are something. I tried both and personally I love the 6gv2 with black switches since they have a really nice feel and better than the blackwidow. The keys are taller and also bounce back more easily and is in all a better more tactile experience. | ||

Yah i've realized the steelseries is probably a good one that i can actually get my hands on easily. Guess i should hope i get a guy in a good mood that actually lets me take one out of the box haha, doesn't seem like there are many stores that have display models. Thanks for the advice guys. | ||

I know the biggest issue is that you can't actually test the keyboard if you are buying it online; however, most of the ones that I dealt with actually had some great return policies. It might be better just to purchase a few, and then return them if you dont like it. | ||
