To everyone that was mentioning the age of the device, that is exactly what I was thinking. It's a great mouse, but I stopped using mine a year ago due to the rechargeable battery not lasting long. I would avoid this deal unless you are okay with charging a mouse every couple of days or so.
It's still a 100% fantastic mouse. I use it at work- the battery lasts about 3 months, you can use it while charging (charging cable attaches like a corded mouse), it's incredibly comfortable, and I love how the side thumb mount actually has a button built into it.
If mine suddenly broke I'd absolutely buy another one.
This is the old Gen 2 model. Fairly normal price for this model, the gen 3 is much higher still
Is it really a Gen 2? It look like OG; I have two of them on my desk. One has lousy battery life (~2 weeks), one is more normal (3-6 weeks depending on usage). I wouldn't part with them.

I don't think this is an accurate statement. I've had the gen 1 MX Master mouse for years and use it daily for work. I charge it every 2 to 3 weeks when it gets low. This Gen 2 is totally worth the price of 50 bucks if you're in the market for a new mouse.

This listing is for the MX Master 1. The MX Master 2S is frequently this price and is a better mouse.
This is a great mouse but need to charge from time to time or I can feel the sluggishness and recharge seems to be able to fix it.
Mine just stopped working yesterday to due to water damage.
I am considering buying 2s or 3.
Regarding the battery life comments, I'm still using an MX master (gen 1) for about 5 years, the battery lasts at least a month. (I turn it off when I'm done with the work day). One thing is that the micro USB is starting to get weaker, but still usable.
But I don't see a reason to get Gen1 over Gen2 since the Gen2 is usually $50-55.

No issue with my Logitech Anywhere 2S mice of ~5 years - I imagine the battery is even smaller than this full-sized Logitech. I've used my Anywhere 2S for my full-time job for the past 4-5 years and it still lasts something like 2-3 weeks per charge.
Regarding this device - I also have this, but never use it. I'd like to think my hands are of average size, but it just feels too big. The Anywhere series is much more comfortable and light to use.
