Looking to buy new mouse. Any recommendations?

It's a 40 minute drive to the closest one and I don't have my licenses yet (overprotective parents because I'm blind in one eye) so I'll have to see if a friend can drive me.

And they won't have the Sentinel, at least not this one, because it was just released a few days ago.

Second the Logitech G500. Before that I had the G5.

Before you go about the 40 minute drive, call ahead to see what they have on display.

... for $180. These are old stock.

I'm not going to feed that beast.

But you're right. You can buy them on Amazon.

I have a CM Storm. It was, to begin with, VERY picky about the surface it was on. It never felt RIGHT... I'd stay away from it.

It did seem to settle down a bit after some use in regard to the surface, but I went ahead and replaced it after about a month anyway.

Went back to Logitech. Got a G700. I don't think I'll be getting any other brand of mouse for the foreseeable future.

On the flipside... if anyone wants a CM Storm... I'll sell it for 25 bux plus shipping.

Honestly, I started with an Intellimouse Optical, went to a Deathadder, and now have a Logitech G9x. Out of all the mice i've played with so far, the G9x wins hands down

Then again, i'm a hybrid claw/palm grip player, so the best way to actually determine comfort is to put your hand on one.
That being said, the G500 has the same laser as the G9x, if i'm not mistaken. Can't go wrong with it
