Where can one buy Razer products in Cape Town? ( Keyboards, Mouses ) etc..
 
JUST DONT BUY A RAZOR LYCOSA keyboard. Took mine back, keys stopped working. There are MANY complaints on the web, read up
 
Any Razer Keyboard/Mouse that you guys think is good?

I currently have the Razer Diamondback.. have this mouse for some time now, looking for something new + razer keyboard.

Maybe that's because you bought a fake? The real ones say Razer not Razor. :D

But yes, even the real Lycosa sucks big time. It breaks like a mofo.

@OP: In general Razer products are not well made, I find. They feel cheap, flimsy and plasticky. The Lycosa keyboard being probably one of the worst. There are some exceptions however:

The Blackwidow (and Blackwidow Ultimate) mechanical keyboards are well made and a pleasure to type on. Beware if you don't like the clicking sound though because it uses Cherry MX Blue keyswitches. They are amazing to type with but some people get irritated by the noise.

The Mamba mouse seems to be a return to quality from what I've seen in reviews etc. I don't actually own one but it does look decently made at least.

So basically their highest-end, most expensive stuff is good, the rest looks pretty but isn't good quality. The mouses usually feel way too light and many suffer from sensor issues, drivers messing up something etc. The keyboards, as mentioned (other than the Blackwidow), just stop working, the black parts on the keys come off leaving them transparent, etc. The headphones sound very very cheap despite looking like they might be quality, open-backed and all. This has been my experience at least.
 
goto esquire, look at the Cyborg range, i bought the keyb and mouse, VERY impressed
