I bought Razer Deathadder 2013 ed 1 week ago, and when i first got it mouse was ok, everything working like it should and i really loved it. However, after few days, body of mouse would sometimes squeak like it would pop of the body and when i rest my hand on it it goes back and makes sound like kvrkkkk, also sometimes left click would produce same sound. When i dont touch my mouse for few seconds and i rest my hand on it, i can hear squeak and little pop sound, well also alot of other parts of body is like that.Is it common or is your deathadder good?

Many people have been having this issue. If you wish to lose RMA option and open the mouse, there are DIY options:

1) Open the existing switch and try adjusting the spring inside it. But in order to reduce required actuation force instead of flattening the shown section you should curve it a little bit more (be careful).
2) Try gluing something thin (preferably slick, too) onto a clicker of an upper shell - that should reduce button travel and make it a bit easier to click. Don't use if travel is already too short.

Best regards.

Ty for help, but i wont do that, i really like shape and performance of the mouse itself, but i found that this mouse is quite bad engineered, it is funny when i stick piece of paper under click that the issue is fixed, and that sound is not showing, it is like the part where the bump is is kinda loose and not without proper support, if this mouse shows more issues i wont replace it, i will refund it and keep cash for SSd or something else, had 2 Cm storm Recons, Abyssus and Deathadder 2013 and all of them had deffects and felt cheap. It is sad that gaming stuff is not quality, but only gimmick, i have Logitech g105 keyboard after 6 months and served me extremely well, maybe i wil look for logitech g400s, i was also looking for Steelseries Rival or save some cash for sensei, but i heard bad things about sensei sensor bugs and Rival's coating peeling off anyway thanks for help. Also i found out that Left Click has very low travel distance, while right click feels really loose.

I actually had this problem with my steelseries sensei raw and i fixed it with some tin foil tape, you just take a tiny piece of it and tape over the plastic that hits the click switch. I highly recommend doing it this way.
