Anyone know where I can get high end PC peripherals?

I would really love a Razr Mamba(around 100USD) but I have no idea where to look here.

I checked out the computer malls but all they have a low-mid end shit that only attracts the noobs.

Have you checked out Yongsan? I believe that I saw some Razr products there. Not 100% sure, because they have never been on my purchase list. But give there a glance.

Just out of curiosity, why would you pay that much for a mouse? I use a cheapo thing from Emart, and I kick ass at Call of Duty 4!

Some people just enjoy using high-quality stuff. I totally understand that. Even if the functionality isn't much different, the look and feel is sometimes worth the extra money.

If I wasn't married I'd be spending twice as much as I need to on electrical stuff.....


OP, unfortunately Korea does not have a good market for high-end stuff. Here is the land of mid-range........the guy in my local computer store thinks an Nvidia 8800GT is a high-end graphics card!!

You can find high-end stuff when you look hard or can shop online, but you'll never get a good deal on high-end in Korea.

I know what you mean. My other half prevents me from wasting money on loads of shit I don't really need!

Its odd, but I still find a number of electronic items cheaper online than in Korea. For example, I saw a Logitech MX518 for 52,000W and I ended up buying it on Ebay for $39 with free shipping.
The mouse has been working perfectly for over a year.

By the way, I saw a Razor Mamba for 178.000W at Yonsan. Incredibly overpriced

Functionality is different, but the difference only matters to a small group of people. The Mamba is the best mouse out now.
