Chinese Keyboard Switches
« on: Wed, 06 March 2013, 12:34:44 »
Hi guys, by any chance any of you already used these switches?

http://www.alibaba.com/product-gs/332307190/key_board_switch.html

The price is really attractive, 5 cents per switch I think, however the minimum order is about 1000 pieces (50 bucks + shipping) so I'm wondering if it's good or not ...

Looks like fake ALPS to me.

Could be wrong though.
