Check out this guy.

It looks funky and that thumb nob thing is a little goofy but it is a seriously nice mouse. I found it to be really comfortable and it feels super solid.

Amazon still has a few.

If you like fat mice, Corsair has the M65.

I'd go with the M65 over a mouse from a dead company.

Mechanical keyboards are expensive for a reason. They are infinitely superior in just about every way (other than cost an weight, and noise.) I have the TKL version of this keyboard and I love it so far. Bar none, that's probably the cheapest RGB keyboard there is and it's actually pretty good. It can't be customized like the much more expensive Corsair K70, but it's still fun. The Z-77 has MX Blue-style switches so they are clicky, which means they are very loud. Anything short of the Matis Quiet switches, you'll find just about every mechanical keyboard is very loud even when it is advertised as 'quiet.'

Personally I use a trackball because I'm not all that competatives, but when it comes to a mouse I like the Mad Catz RAT mouses since they just look so crazy.

I use a Wacom and generic mouse at work, but at home I use a R.A.T. 5 laser mouse which has since been acquired by MadCatz and has received model upgrades. I had originally bought it for gaming for something comfortable than the junk mouse I was using before, and yes I'm aware it looks breathtakingly stupid, but both the physical and digital customization options actually make it nice for photo editing too. It has adjustable weight, adjustable length, programmable sensitivities, and programmable buttons. The funny one is the "Precision Aim" button which lowers the sensitivity of the mouse for better sniping in FPS games, but it's actually really nice when you need to make precision edits and you want to drop the DPI for a little bit.

You should look into the world of online shopping, these days all you need is a bank account. Thousands of options available for any product you desire, and usually for quite a bit less than in store shopping.

Edit - To show off a perfect example, want a mouse that's the closest in function to your dearly departed R.A.T 5? Why not another one for only $60 with free shipping. http://www.amazon.com/Mad-Catz-T-5-Gaming-Mouse/dp/B0098W4ZD4/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1426449536&sr=8-1&keywords=r.a.t+5

I used to have a mouse like that that had two wheels. Not that exact one though. It was great in Excel. one wheel scrolled up and down and the other scrolled left and right.

My current mouse is a Rat 5 and it has the standard scroll wheel and a second thumb wheel that I have set for page up and page down. Works great for quickly moving around documents.

cyborg r.a.t. 5 by madcatz

doesn't look comfortable AT ALL but it really is. And it's adjustable. I really love mine. There's different tiers at different prices/features/quality. rat 3,5,7,9 and mmo. (rat 9 is just a wireless rat 7). I'd recommend looking into them.
