i was looking at the Razer Deathstalker ( yes, its a chiclet keyboard. i had a blackwidow, but i am not a fan of mechanical one... maybe i am just used to the apple keyboards.) so anyways, i saw one for $25 cheaper on amazon.com. Its been used for 1 year and the pictures looks pretty good condition. seller is reputable and says it works fine. Any suggestions if i should get that? Main concern is if the keyboard is gonna last few more years since its already been used for a year.

As someone who used the Deathstalker heavily for two years I think it might still work for a couple more years. Over the time the keys that were used most got a bit squeaky if you press them hard, but it still works and looks new. Also it's worth mentioning that it's a bit hard to clean. I never tried to pull out the key caps so there was nothing that could be done if some particles get stuck underneath (other then shaking it up side down and hoping they will just fall out).
Getting a new and cheap chiclet style keyboard might be a better option. I used to have a Genius Slim Star i222 and it was great.
