owned a few of these back in the day (about 8 years ago). feels great in the hand, but went through about 4 of them due to the double click issue (each lasted about 6mo-1yr, but i did play a lot of cs:go). every brand will have mice with questionable switches in terms of longevity, but my experience was that with razer, it was pretty common. i now have a basilisk that had the same issue, but had the switches replaced.

speaking of, if you're good with soldering, you should be able to swap out the switch and should be good as new. at $20, it's worth getting one or two as a budget gaming mouse and/or as backup.

same price as it was during prime day, i believe.

I bought the white one about six months ago. I immediately put it to use on my gaming machine and it has never failed me. It fits my large hand very well and looks good too. I'm sure I paid more than this for one and I'm deciding whether to get another at this price.

The only down side of the white one is that it does get a little dirty so requires some occasional cleaning, but operational it is an excellent mouse.

After a year they start double clicking and gets real annoying if you are working, not so much while doing fps games.

Same. They feel great but I went through 2 of them that had the exact same issue after not that much use. Really disappointing in what was an expensive, ostensibly "premium" mouse. This is a great deal so it's tempting, but I've been so happy with the Logitech G502 (and it's lasted with no issues), that I don't need this.
