I've been able to pickup some good cheap mice off ebay...

just goto ebay (http://www.ebay.com.au) homepage and search for mx500 and mx518

Today I picked up a MX518 (1600dpi) gaming mouse for like $39 and a trusty old MX500 for $20... Both those prices incl delivery...

I mostly get my mice off Just Deals, a mob that sell heaps of refurb gear... sold as new... They are good ebayers and only payment method is bank deposit... so those without credit cards need not cry... Delivery is from HK so takes a week, but worth it...

Anyhoo, thought I'd let you guys know, as I think more of you would buy good mice if you didn't have to pay $50+ for them...

:D

At those prices I may as well put my mx310 on my server not really worth selling

I have previously bought a Logitech cordless and an MX500 off Just Deals and have now bought a spare MX500 (purely because I've had em for sooo long and for $20, why not have a spare) and an MX518 on the way...

I am keen to test out the MX518 in CS:S as some have theorised 1600dpi to smooth out some minor choppiness in sauce...

Never really liked the idea of buying a mouse second hand... Even if it is refurbo'd.

Not after what mine goes through.. I'm suprised I can still hold a grip on it without it slipping and smelling.

Usually if I'm just finishing off the deed, and a clan needs a 5th.. No clean up for me..

Well the cordless I bought off em about 9mths ago and the mx500 are still in primo order... The cordless was new and the mx was refurbed, but as new...
