Prime exclusive: Logitech K120 keyboard for $8.50 [limit 5]

Amazon may be dealing with a double edged sword here, they have began offering exclusive offers for Prime members which are not available if you are not a member. This is a plus for members obviously, but they definitely risk alienating a lot of people who are not Prime members. The idea behind this is obviously to nudge more people into trying a Prime membership, but it could backfire. I don’t know. I am a Prime member so it doesn’t bother so, but I don’t know how I would feel if I wasn’t – especially if it was an item I needed or wanted at a good price…

Regardless, that mini essay was to introduce this Prime-exclusive offer, the basic Logitech K120 wired USB keyboard is on sale for $8.50 with free 2-day Prime shipping with a limit of five per customer. Depending on your order and/or location, the shopping cart may also offer you a $5 Prime Pantry credit if you select slow shipping instead. This keyboard, for its price, is doing quite well in reviews, 4.4 out of 5 based on 2200+ of them. Just keep in mind, this is a single figure keyboard, don’t expect miracles 🙂

PS: if you are not a Prime member and/or need a mouse as well as keyboard, you can get the Logitech MK120 keyboard-mouse combo for $14.50 (averages 4.4/5 on 800+ customer reviews).

This has all kinds of features and controls, from faux-mice buttons, to media controls, and such. Keep in mind though, as with most mobile keyboards, space is at a premium, so it’s a matter of convenience over a full size keyboard.

CM Storm Devastator Keyboard and Mouse Combo for $30

On the other hand, if you want to pay even less, there’s the EagleTec K005 combo that goes for $24 instead. Again, this is not a mechanical keyboard.
