Looking For a Budget Mouse

So After one and a half years I have finally decided to stop being crazy and cease using my Microsoft Wireless Mouse 3500. :P
I don't have much money to spend so I am considering the Logitech G300s. It's $30 from walmart and the main complaints I've heard is small size and weight (which I don't mind, my current mouse is smaller and lighter). Is this a good choice for someone on a small budget or are there better mice at a similar price and small size?

This is only 22.50 if you have Amazon Prime, I really liked it but the mouse feet wore off quick and I lost the replacement ones. Should last you two years if you don't do that tho

Logitech G100s for $12, free shipping

I bought my current G100s from this seller and it's perfect. The mouse feet were a bit roughed up but the glide isn't affected significantly, if at all.

Wmo because you can overclock the polling rate without test mode and theyre $20 on newegg. A g100s would also be a good choice.

Anyone have any thoughts or more info on the g300s? I'm wondering this because it seems to have a more similar shape to what I'm used to, so if these mice are equal for the most part I would rather avoid shipping costs and get a better shape. If it's significantly worse I'll look into these suggestions (that I do appreciate).

Check out the Sentey Revolution Pro, has adjustable weights, nice grip and doesn't feel cheap at all.

I've owned this mouse for five years and still works. Would definitely recommend if on a budget.

Uhhhhhhhhh do some research on this mouse before you buy it. A whole host of complains about build quality, terrible quality control, mushy buttons, no customer service, terrible software that completely bricks the mouse. Buying this mouse is apparently a gamble, and winning in this case is getting a mouse that is actually functional. If you don't use side buttons (MOUSE4 MOUSE5), then the Logitech 100s for $11 seems like a ridiculously good deal, considering it has a sensor that is considered flawless. Someone said that the 100s is perfect for CSGO, but terrible for other games. Not really sure what that means, or how it's terrible for other games, but the more you know.

in my opinion $30 for the G300s is too much, considering what else is available for the same amount.

Ninox Aurora is good for the price if you get one with no build quality issues.

G100s is good but no side buttons.

Rival 100 has excellent build quality but only really good to use on 500cpi

I got my SteelSeries Sensei Raw at bestbuy for only 40 bucks, as to the usual 60, its a total steal and not worth too much.

Can recommend rival 100 (300 definitely if you're willing to fork out a little more)

OwenLogitech G402 50% off, I have one and it's great, solid sensor/shape. There's this stupid gimmicky "sniper" button for DPI changing, but it's rebindable.

Dang... might get this to replace my Logitech G500... Can't even rocket jump with the G500 the deceleration is fucking AWFUL on my soft mat. How long have you been using it for? I've had my G500 for 5 yrs, and it's still going strong, does the G402 feel like it will last a while? I don't wanna buy something and have it break in a year.

I, myself, wouldn't buy a G100s, but if you are on a budget and you don't want to spend upwards of $60-$80 for a nice mouse, this is a good alternative.
