And if it includes free replacements, you can bet that most of what you pay for, beside the usury, is some fat fuck regularly spilling goyslop over it so that it breaks. I never had a mouse break, they're too simple by design and just works.

Mice break all the time, usually the wheel or a button. Even expensive ones.

Usually because of dust and years of filth from your hands. You have to clean your mouse and wash your hands after visiting the shitter. A more common problem is driver related issues, unplug and plug it in again or reinstall the broken driver. Also don't use wireless, their battery will only last for ~5-10 years on average.

I've been using mice since when you needed a special mouse mat, to trackballs, to ball mice, to optical.

But thanks for the advice

I have a box of trackball mice, none of them are broken, they're just not as accurate as laser mouse. Mousemats are still a good thing to have for better accuracy, keep that one clean as well.

I'm talking about the sort of mousemat which has a special foil grid and the mouse didn't work without it
