Hi Pexon,
Thank you for making this group buy.
I just filled the form with 120 switches.
I like linear switches

Oh I didn't tell you they came a few days ago but I have not had time to do anything other that take a quick look at them. I really like them, those keychain bases are awesome and that sparkle keycap is nice also. I will try to get some pics over the weekend.

I was going to tell you the shipping envelope had a very large hole in it, just an fyi in case that starts becoming an issue with your other orders.

Nope, looks like other peoples posts have slowed the orders right down to the point that I doubt this GB will now run  :(

Do a tactile MX white buy and I think you would reach 4000 quickly.

White's are clicky? What is this magic you speak of??

But yes .....white switches FTW!

correct, those MX1A-A1NN are whites (milk) which are clicky and are 80g (i have them)

there are a few places with MX1A-C1NW (Clears with the PCB pins) but if the shipping is cheap for this then this may be the way to go, not sure what Sager or Allied shipping costs are.

Maybe I'm blind but I couldn't find the USA as a shipping option when trying to checkout....I think I do want some white switches to try.....

It is and I wanted some plate mount clears so I can save my pcb mount clears for another project in the future....but I'd also like to find whites and someone else asked about whites above and it just kind of went downhill from there.....

Also pexon says this GB may not make it after all....
