Hey everyone!
The IC
https://geekhack.org/index.php?topic=90760.50 went fantastically, really overwhelmed by the responses.
A total of nearly 70,000 switches were asked for in the IC.
The GB link is here:
https://opticboards.com/group-buys/mx-silent-black. These will be £26 for a pack of 120 plus shipping.
The US Proxy will be
https://www.novelkeys.xyz/product/group-buy-cherry-mx-silent-black-switches/I'll add in a direct link once I have it. These will be $39 for a pack of 120 plus shipping.
These are PCB mount, non RGB switches.
The lead time for these switches are 10-12 weeks since they are being bought direct from a the Cherry Distributor here in Europe.
Let me know if you have any questions.
Thanks
George

LATEST UPDATEI've just had an email back from the distributor. They have given me an estimated delivery date of 23rd November 2017! Which is way ahead of the expected schedule. It is worth noting that this date is when the distributor expects to have them. There will be some time after that for the switches to ship to me, and then on to you guys. It's looking like you should definitely have your switches before Christmas!
