@Ruby_Witch That's my favorite price. :)

I have a Logitech gaming mouse and a Logitech trackball. They were cheap and both work OK for my needs.
The best addition to my setup was a giant "gaming" mousepad (has a hard, slick surface) which made a huge difference in accuracy and ease of movement. It was very inexpensive and I wish I had picked one up long ago considering it should last forever.
For work I use an Apple "magic" touchpad placed strategically between the two halves of a split keyboard.
For gaming I'm fine with any cheap mouse, I remember before optical mice and they were oh so much more annoying when they would get jammed up with fluff that you had to clean out :) even if it was strangely satisfying...
My go-to mouse was the Logitech M500. It fit well in my have large hands and I enjoy the dual-mode scroll wheel. Nowadays I use the Kensington Expert Mouse, which is a trackball. I enjoy its button layout and scroll wheel thing.

like @addison I also use a Kensington expert trackball. It took a couple days to get used to, but i like it more than a traditional mouse now. I use a standing desk and recently added an under-the-desk treadmill to it and find the trackball easier to use while walking

I'm using a (wireless) Logitech MX nano since 2011 and it still works perfect. The newer models aren't cool compared with this early model
the mouse i am in love with is a ps/2 mouse, and i use it via adapter with atari st.
see photos in my blog post. not available via gemini yet, but i have to think about it and do something.
Favorite computer mice? — Sadly, many of my favorites aren't made anymore. I'm daily driving a Logitech G600, but my other machines have a Contour Perfit and an old HP 3-button optical mouse.
