Why would you spend roughly $60 on a mousepad?

I have a personal bias against Razer. I believe they use deceptive market on their website, and I personally don't want to buy products that resort to deceptive marketing.
It's a personal bias on my part. There are several people here that have bought Razer products for years, and love those products. So you have to consider both viewpoints.
But let me ask you a quick question: What does a $60 mousepad do that a $10 mousepad cannot? Maybe you have a particular preference for aluminum for some reason. I am a mouse snob, and use a $6 OCZ Behemoth cloth/rubber mousepad. It works, and I'd buy one again in a heartbeat.

I have the Ironclad, I got it last week. So far it is awesome. Easily the best mouse pad I've ever used. I'm using it with my R.A.T. 9 and it is a great combination. I've tried my Orochi on it and that works great too. It is kinda weird first using it after a long time since I like to keep my room temp cool and the mouse pad is cold to the touch, but warms up quickly.
This is better than the Megasoma, Destructor, my previous mouse pad was Qck and I found the cloth material not a little rougher pretty quickly. I only used it for a few months, it is still usable but tracking isn't as fast as I like. That was my first cloth mouse in quite sometime. Before that I was using a GameRigs Battlemat with hard plasticly surface, before that I was using a SteelSeries FragMat with hard plasticly surface.
I've used a lot of different mouse pads over the years, so far this is my favorite. It is very similar to the SteelSeries SX but I like the IronClad color better and it just feels nice. Well worth $50 street price.
Here's a quick shot.

I feel the same way about Razer as Kent said. However, I do have the Razer vespula which is a hard gaming pad as well. It is pretty good and half the price of the iron clad. I don't think that price is worth it. I am not a fan of cloth ones and the vespula is two sided. The best mouse pad I think is the Razer exactmat. But, they discontinued that one and the vespula replaced it. It's the only Razer product I will ever buy, because they admittedly do probably make the best mouse pads. In my opinion.
Edit: I use my G700 on this pad, btw...works really well.

I use this cheap mouse pad I got at Target or somewhere about 8 years ago, all it says on it is optical, it's awesome.

You know, that $8 mousepad looks like it would do the job just fine.
I am not a fan of hard mousepads. I am not even a fan of mousepads in general. I used to mouse on my bare desk surface, but was forced to get a mousepad because of a mouse I used to own (Cyborg R.A.T.7). That mouse was incredibly comfortable, but had an absolutely garbage imaging sensor. Would not track reliably on less-than-perfect mousing surface like a bare desk... and even on a mousepad, it would have problems.

I do not think a hard mousepad would work well for me no matter what the brand. But yeah $60 is a total rip off no matter how you look at it.
They probably get those things mass produced at less than $5.00 each.

This thread had made me think of replacing my QcK Mini with a QcK+ but they are sold out everywhere 
Kinda want a huge mouse pad to put my keyboard ontop of it, I also like how its so thin so that its not like I have a raised surface for the mouse its just a part of the desk.
Edit: nvm I want one of these now - http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16826991001
