"never has a mouse fit me so well and I've tried so damn many. ... fit me so well ... they're the only ones that worked for me so I've stuck with them. ... best ergonomics ... The V3 is also fatter, fits a bigger hand so it's perfection for me"

"the process was such a pain in the ass that I quit. ... Razer had me record a video first thing, then kept asking me to perform troubleshooting steps that I already told them I'd tried (since they told me to in the support article), and then a couple times closed out my ticket because I took a few days to reply (and after reopening the ticket, they basically wanted to start from the beginning again), and then they wanted me to ship the defective mouse back to them at my own expense, warning that if the mouse was deemed non-defective I would not be receiving the product back or a replacement. After that I complained and they agreed to provide a shipping label, but at that point I was done. ... I'm pretty sure that's the goal, make the return process such a hassle that people give up and they don't have to honor their warranty, so they won that battle. Still, I'm never buying another Razer product again."
"Hello I overlooked your message that avro will not provide warranty for this? Please let me know why. This mouse cover has a acro import sticker and easyshoppi is supposedly authorised seller too then why"
