Roccat Pyra Wireless Gaming Mouse; Where to buy!?

I've set my sights on the Roccat Pyra Wireless gaming mouse. Though, since I'm located in the US, I haven't been able to find anywhere that sells Roccat products. Not even Amazon or Newegg carries Roccats.

Can anyone suggest me a reliable retailer that sells the Roccat Pyra Wireless mouse and can ship it to the US? I'd like eBay to be my last resort if I really can't find the mouse anywhere else.

Thanks in advance!

 

I'll save you some time and money - don't buy that mouse. It's uncomfortable to use (even with my small hands), expensive, and the battery life isn't all that great. The only nice thing about it is the little carrying pouch that came in the package.

While it's not a gaming mouse, per se, the Logitech Anywhere Mouse MX is a vasty superior product if you're looking for something small and wireless. If size is less of an issue, get the Logitech G700 or Razer Mamba.

 

Don't buy Roccat in the US.

The problem isn't availability - if you look hard enough, you can find someone that will import one and sell it to you. The problem is going to be support. If Roccat does not distribute to the US, then you will have problems getting warranty / support for the device. Stay away from Roccat for that reason.

If you want a high-performance wireless gaming mouse, check out the Logitech G700. If you want a small gaming mouse, check out the Razer Orochi.

 

The Orochi is nice, but I wouldn't get it if you intend to game wirelessly; Bluetooth is inherently laggy.

 

Agree. You should think of the Razer Orochi as a portable wired gaming mouse, that coincidentally happens to have a non-gaming wireless (Bluetooth) mode.

 

I bought mine of eBay (In the UK) and its quite nice. No issues with comfort, my main mouse is a Roccat Kone which is much larger, I use the Pyra with my laptop.
To note there is no lag what so ever with the wireless, the dongle is tiny and you can charge/play at the same time with the included wireless batteries.

 

The major flaw is that you need to have both the USB dongle and cable plugged in at the same time in order to use this feature. This is not necessary with the Mamba or G700.

 

I dont see this as an issue as the receiver is tiny, but agree it wasnt expected

 

I just ordered a Pyra because it's the mouse I've been looking for for a while.

Medusa-USA : Online Store

Not the prettiest site, but if they get me my mouse, I'm happy.

 

While I don't know your budget have you looked at the Black Mamba wireless? I heard amazing things about it. Also the g9x (I think thats the wireless version).

I have the Naga (Wired) for gaming and the logitech Performance MX (wireless) for work.

 

lol, I should mention that I already own the G700 (too little battery life, silver paint on middle mouse button rubs off in less than 6 months). I've owned the Razer Mamba for 2 weeks, and it's a gigantic dust magnet; not to mention there's a required dock that you need to carry around everywhere. I've also owned the G9x for a year, but gave it away to my brother since it doesn't have that many customizable buttons + it's wireless and has useless changeable grip and weights.

If the G700 fixed the silver paint issue and had a bit more battery life, I'd buy the revised version in a heartbeat. The Roccat Pyra Wireless was the closest to the G700 in terms of having enough customizable buttons, and not having paint/battery issues.

I really wish that Logitech would update their G700 to fix those 2 issues. It's honestly a great mouse that could be "perfect" with a little more revision.

 

I believe Pyra's battery life is worse than G700, and Mamba.

I always recommend extra rechargeable batteries for wireless freaks. easy/fast to replace and you stay wireless 100% of the time

and this is the first time and only issue I've heard with the paint . why dont you call logitech and see if they can send you a replacement ?

 

I would so buy it if Roccat was in the US! Warranty is crucial, especially when i'm bringing the mouse around with me wherever I go :/
Probably getting G700 dented box or something.

 

ebay might be ur best bet in the states, or u could try a wired one off of amazon, for about $30
