I know what you mean. This is the best mouse I've ever used, and I can't believe how expensive and scarce it is now. Have they stopped making this model? I don't like most of the other Logitech mice compared to this one, for one reason or another.

I think initially this mouse came with a wireless keyboard as well. The packaged deal was pretty spendy. I don't think Microsoft makes this particular mouse anymore, and that could be why the price is so high as well. Good luck!

It is a larger mouse and probably not the most comfortable fit for a small hand. It is however a very good mouse for the price. I prefer the MX 518 I use on my primary computer but it does cost 3 times as much.

Its both a great mouse for the money and a fantastic overall mouse. You will be hard pressed to find anything that compares to what you get in this mouse at double or even triple its price.

amazon was the best deal when I looked for it. I think you can get it on the logitech website too but it was all most the same price as buying a new wireless mouse.

I smell a class action lawsuit building up here... anyone. Spend 150 bucks on a mouse with no support whatsoever from the manufacturer...

I checked around for prices on Amazon and other places. I have one that I got 6 years ago. Doesn't seem to be available at regular office supply stores. I was a teacher at the time...There is no way I paid that kind of price. It had to have been on sale and well under $100 when I bought it or it wouldn't have been purchased by me. They were not available on Logitech's website except for support. Sorry, It looks to me like scarcity on a good product has driven the price up, but I did find it on ebay for under $300. I know probably not a lot of help. Contact Logitech, maybe they can help.

When I saw the price, I thought it was for a box of half a dozen of these. The mouse has not yet been created that's worth this kind of money. This price is just silly. I have two of its predecessors, the 5000 model, and paid around $30 for each on sale.

A better TWO HUNDRED DOLLAR MOUSE!!!??? The MK550 is 60, this thing is almost 5...FIVE times that!

This isn't the greatest choice to game on. Its a decent mouse for a laptop I still use it on my other laptop. A better choice would be E-Blue Mazer II 2500 DPI Wireless Gaming Mouse (EMS601BKAA-NF) . But don't get me wrong its a good mouse if your on a budget.

To be completely honest. The mouse fits my hand perfectly. That's why I went with it. But everyone's hands are different so what may be a perfect fit for me may not be for you. I love the mouse and it is still working as amazing as when it came out of the box. I hope you give it a try because it is a great mouse.

The real reason, I think, is found in another one of the questions. The mouse in this set has two scroll wheels and there are NO other mice available that have a thumb scroll wheel like it. I use mine for volume control and while it's just a convenience thing, I am dreading the day when my mouse dies. People that use this set don't want to give it up and I'm guessing that 100% of the demand that drives the price is from people who have one that finally stopped working on them...

I grabbed it for that price. Had it in the cart, looked back a the specs and the price went up! But as it was in the cart, I got it for $649. Merry Christmas Mom!

BTW, I just checked the price. It's now 169.00. I paid 159.00. Some other people that left reviews paid less than I did.

I got a mouse that says 1600 dpi? It too only has 3 clicks for DPI? It also came in a clear plastic bag and not a nice box like the ones on youtube?

This sucks so big time. What on earth is Logitech thinking? I just spent hours scouring user reviews and finally settled on the Logitech Optical Marble Mouse as ultimate mousing heaven. I have two XP Pro machines, sure, but I wanted it for my new Vista w PVR. How hard can it be for them to update it? Or is this another one of those plots by Microsoft to try to kill the competition? Ugh, if so. Or, more hopefully but ugh as well, do they simply want to issue a new version for Vista to create obsolescence and thereby increase sales ? Anybody know?

I bought my first of these mice in on August 20, 2013 and I use it a lot for gaming (online and offline) as well as browsing the net. It gets a ton of clicking with the gaming and I do a lot of scrolling on the Internet. So far, my oldest mouse has held up wonderfully. To be honest, so far I like the performance of this mouse over others I have purchased in the past that cost a lot more. The other two mice I have I use with my laptops (again, a lot of gaming with both) and they are performing great so far as well. I won't make any 100% guarantees it will last you years and I won't say it will die on you a week after you get it. Even the most expensive of mice can fail quickly.
