Why I am always buying from SteelSeries from now on...
36 replies, posted
Hopefully this is the right place to post, as it is hardware related.
So yesterday, I was browsing around SteelSeries' website, and I noticed that their Dota 2 surface was back in stock. ([url]http://shop.steelseries.com/us/surfaces/steelseries-qck-dota2-edition.html[/url]) So I was going around and getting ready to purchase that plus a Sensei, and for some reason my purchase was declined and was told to contact customer service. Being that I thought I maybe let the purchase time out, I ignored it and put off the purchase until later.
So 12 AM today (12/24/2012), I checked my PayPal to see if I got any money from anyone (I was waiting for a refund), and sure enough I had money, but it wasn't from the person I wanted, it was from SteelSeries.

No where on there does it mention me buying anything from SteelSeries, and it says within the transaction they sent me that it was a refund towards a failed purchase. Being legal age in Canada plus the fact my PayPal had every inch of information about me, I couldn't hold on to the money or blow it on something else, I was psyched to fuck. I instantly got communication with Steelseries support, told them this error, and simply enough all I had to do was click a "refund" link, and send them the money back.
So they own the money, and my PayPal balance is 0$ again; thank god. I went ahead and got a proper purchase of my Mouse Surface + Mouse. Right after I checked my e-mail and my PayPal to make sure the purchase went through properly well because it's scary holding on to a huge corporations money. Instead I found this in my inbox.

Sometimes doing good things can reward you.
Now I already purchased my things from them, what else should I get? If I should get anything... Or should I decline the offer?
Get a 6Gv2 or 7G keyboard. Also yea, that's awesome, SteelSeries is really good to their costumers in my experience.
The most expensive thing they sell :v:
You could get yourself one of their mechanical keyboards, probably the best thing they sell.

I can't decide whether to dumb you, or disagree

He was joking...
6Gv2 or 7G.
just get the 7g
you can take the palm rest off and it becomes a slightly better 6gv2 if you find the 7g too big
[QUOTE=meppers;34855389]just get the 7g

I did get the 7G, well hopefully I will. Other wise I will get a 6gv2.
i got a steel series siberia headband for free
pretty much one of the worst microphones and headphones i've ever used and it costs $100
Oh god, Inbox 3275 unread.
I bought a Siberia V2 a few weeks ago, and it's the best headset I've had so far. Mic is crystal clear (unlike my last headset, which sounded like somebody rubbing a balloon against their hair), so I'm happy.
Get a mechanical keyboard and be glad they rewarded you for doing the right thing, others wouldn't even offer you a coupon that they poop out to people who like their FP page.

Or you could get some HTF600's and a Modmic and save some money AND get (much) better sound quality AND have a mic which you can attach to any headphones you might get in the future.

To be honest, I've tried a few headsets with better sound quality, and I've not noticed a difference while playing vidya and listening to my music (which is pretty low quality so...)
Nah, I'm happy with this headset, plus I got it for cheap.
That's so sweet.

just wait until you try some quality cans half the price of those

If those are the best headphones you've ever owned I feel sorry for you.
Steelseries makes some pretty amazing products but they aren't really recognizable as being the best in audio, which makes sense because it isn't their focus.
Get a 7g keyboard, they're amazing. I'd love to have one myself

Confirmation of getting the keyboard.
I'm not sure if my body is ready.

If your body isn't ready I'll be happy to take it off your hands.
I tried to buy something from Antec, they took four dollars and didn't let me buy the item. I emailed them, no response.

I'm typing with it right now, and HOLY SHIT it feels so nice, but it is so different too compared to the HP shit stain I used to have.

:D
Take the wrist rest off. It feels much nicer without... It's not even an ergonomic one, it's just a square made of plastic to make the keyboard cost 60$ more
Thanks for the address I'm going to go over there and steal it now, nick
