Where does everyone find these PCBs??
« on: Tue, 13 February 2018, 13:48:04 »
Hi All, just wondering, where does everyone find all these specialized PCBs??  I know where to find a GH60, a GoN PCB, Winkeyless PCB, Zeal60 PCB, 1UP specialized PCB, KBDFans PCB... but where do I find things like "Exclusive" PCB, Spirit PCBs, etc?  Is it only here on GeekHack?  And how does someone like 1UPkeyboards get their logo printed on a GoN PCB anyways?

Places like 1UP Keyboards can get their logo imprinted on a PCB, such as the JD40 mk.II, just by asking the creator to change the silkscreen artwork and produce a custom run of the PCB just for them.




You can get SPRiT PCBs on eBay: https://www.ebay.com/itm/222709667335

Thanks for the update.  Now, where do I find other PCBs though, that are featured on channels like TopClack or 001Anthony?

Yes, if you mean builds like the E6-V2, those are usually offered in group buys here (often linked to other forums, like r/MK). It's just a matter of timing, and finding out what you like and want to buy in a GB

For what it’s worth, if you can figure out via Google Translate and guides how to order from it, Taobao often ends up with a much wider selection than anywhere else as far as stores go.

Timing AND having money.  LOL.   :))

Can confirm what Meyvn said, Taobao has the largest selection of keeb PCBs. There are all sorts of cool things there the rest of the world doesn't get. The KBDFans store (kbdfans.cn) has some cool PCBs too, same for the KPRepublic one.
