The NK87 is fine, but $150 is the price it should normally be. I bought one with the intention of it being my beat-up board-- to test switches on, for my kid and wife to use, and whatnot. That way I wouldn't beat up my nicer keyboards. I don't really use it often but it does look fantastic with the DCX Cyber keycaps (I got the pink boar). The finish is excellent and feels like it could take a beating.
I'm not a fan of plastic keyboards so I wouldn't personally choose the Tiger Lite in this instance, but as others have stated and based on reviews it would probably be the better choice if you don't already own many nice boards. If you're looking into another board maybe consider the QK80. It's around the same price and checks a lot of the boxes many newer keyboard enthusiasts are looking for in a budget board.
