If you notice the Mamba, DeathAdder, and G5/G7, they're all made specifically for right handers. The ergonomics just won't fit a lefty comfortably. There are ambidextrous mice like the Salmosa/Diamondback/Diamondback 3G.

well, you have 3 categories based to right/left hand orientation:
1-ergonomically based mouses for right/left hand
before, there was enough mouses that had right and lefty versions, but today you'll have trouble to find something like that
2-ergonomically ambidextrous mouses with symmetrical buttons
3-ergonomically ambidextrous mouses with right hand based buttons

in example, deathadder is almost simetrical mouse, but you have back/forward buttons (buttons 4 and 5) only on left side.
if you like razer, than for a lefty it's best to choose one of ambidextrous mouses kantastic mentioned. (krait, copperhead, lachesis & boomslang are also in this category)
if you don't care for back/forward buttons, than maybe even mouses like deathadder, trust gm4600 or a4tech oscar XL-730/740/705K could be good choice. (although deathadder is slightly right handed)
if you don't need gaming mouse, you could look at logitech mx610:

beside mx610 i think you won't find ergonomic mouse that isn't ambidextrous.
NZXT avatar is very good symmetrical mouse if you would give some more money:

mamba modz

yes but at least it is out there for people who search it. Mods like this is a hobby for me so it is more about the satisfaction of knowing I am not the only person that likes things a little diffrent than factory more so than the money.

Reminds me of the custom lighting G15's that came out before the G19.
