Oh, by all means interested in linear greys.
But in an amount of 10 - not 120 pcs!
Damn, no silent blacks :(
Anyone try the MX Speed switches? I am interested in those.
Tempted to order some clears to try ergo clears; have these been made with the new tooling for the smoother feel? Or does that only apply to the linears?
I've noticed MX Silver is really wanted, both here and on Reddit.
Is there anything special with these other than the clear rgb bottom and shorter actuation?

Several guys ask about "new mod".
But in my opinion, I guess it is because of they are made in different factories.
Some factories using old one and some use new one.
Not related with the date they are made.
Some of my switches marks 2014 on the box and it's pretty smooth as the guy post about "new mod".

May I ask about your VA88M 0.0?Of course, it's the modified layout of the 87, the ISO layout. It can't possibly be mistaken because there is "VA88M" written on the box, case, and PCB!
Typing error or modify layout of origin VA87M?

Hello guys,
I tried placing an order on your site earlier but it seems there is a problem with the link to the GB page? It doesn't seem to work for me.Show Image(https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/275655646219730944/307619886828617729/unknown.png)
Could you please try and fix the site? I would quite like to buy some switches before the deadline is over! Thank you very much
Damn I miss the GB because holiday here... Can I still submit one?

Figure since I submitted my order for silent reds in the extend period my shipment will be delayed. No problem, just happy to have snuck my order in past the deadline. Maybe this justifies the demand for PCB mounted silent reds/blacks next time. There is hope!!

BTW I'm tempted to grab some vintage Blacks from ebay and treating myself to some ghetto vintage Silent Blacks.
I also can't wait for these to arrive so I can start to build my PCB mounted board so I can put the Silent Red's stems into different springs and try them out.
I'm glad I was around for this GB.
The silence comes from the stem, so if you swap vintage blacks into the silent red housing, you dont get the same silent black effectBut I won't put black stems into silent housings, I'll put the Silent stems into Black springs. The housing can be random, as long as it's cherry PCB mount.

Yet I don't understand why you need vintage blacks if you only need the springs :-)Because they say that they are extremely smooth.

Since lubing switches is a time-consuming and precision-heavy work, and I need to buy a batch of PCB mounted switches anyway, if I can find some already-buttery-smooth Blacks for the same price of brand new Blacks, I'm going to save myself the time and effort to lube them.
I'm new to mech boards so maybe this is the wrong solution.
I'm planning to put together a keyboard with PCB mounted Cherry switches. They must be: linear, dampened on the downstroke and upstroke, some light and some heavy, and not scratchy in feeling. And what I came up is this. I'm open to suggestions.
The stem is what makes the switch smooth. To prove that, I put a smooth cherry stem (the new ones, made with the new mold), inside an old cherry housing. The result is that the new stems are smooth also in the new housing. So you don't need vintage blacks, just buy the most recent cherry switches, they're already smooth without lubing..I didn't know this. Thanks for the info.

So that's what you were saying in the new mold thread, I was convinced it was because of the spring and didn't see the reason to focus on the stems.
But how do I know that I'm buying the new stem from whatever mkb seller online apart from asking them and trusting their word? Or is there a surer way to buy the new stems that I'm too uninformed to know?
Wow.. got email for shipping notification. Is it for real?
Any idea on the time line for delayed silent reds? I prefer pcb mount and if the delay length is close to the next GB I would be fine switching or refunding and repurchasing at a later date
We ordered too many XD
Are the switches of the new incoming batch PCB or plate mount?
It base on representative's order.
We can't decide now.
PCB mounted will be rarer.
DIY community is tiny compare to whole mech keyboard market.
Representative of Cherry here is mainly supply those factories.
Normally has only few PCB orders, and the leading time will be much longer than plate mounted.
Can someone point me to the service used to track the number I got please? I googled, but to no avail.
It takes 2-3 days for tracking to go online usually. Say that the package has been in the courier's office for the weekend, it should be on the road in the next few days depending on priority and THEN the code would start registering movement.Can someone point me to the service used to track the number I got please?

Wow orders have shipped out already? That's quicker than I expected!
Tragedy!!!
Just contacted sales.
Plated mounted silence might not enough.
We have to order RGB ver instead.
SHe'll send me more info in next few days.
And we'll send mail to guys ordered but not yet shipped after confirm.

Pretty safe assumption to make. If you haven't gotten a tracking number it's probably delayed.
how did you guys receive tracking? I ordered a few sets of silent reds, but I don't think I have received tracking yet.
I didn't. I logged in Doyustudio's website and my order had a tracking number.how did you guys receive tracking? I ordered a few sets of silent reds, but I don't think I have received tracking yet.

Got my MX silent's today and at least as far as I can tell they feel like they're the "new" cherry switches since they feel smoother than some blacks I bought new a few years ago.
Any chance if there are extra mx cherry silver switches ? :D

I bought a filco with silent reds a few months ago and they are definitely the scratchiest switches I've ever tried. I like them, but smooth is the last term that comes to mind. Maybe mine were somehow old stock?

My guess is that sometime after silents came out they updated the molds because these have the same glass feeling that I get with gaterons, minus the wobble. Feeling wise, wobble itself has never bothered me but sometimes, with GMK or DSA, I'll feel the switch "catch" halfway down.Got my MX silent's today and at least as far as I can tell they feel like they're the "new" cherry switches since they feel smoother than some blacks I bought new a few years ago.I find this odd.

I remember reading a long debate about switch lubing and coming away with the idea that there is some benefit, but that the lube eventually all wears off down into the switch leaving you with the same scratchiness.
I've never lubed my switches, but did once lube my cherry stabilizers. It was quite a revolutionary experience and I have now gone back and lubed all of the stabilizers on all of my boards. Perhaps I need to try switch lubing.
If you're going for looks go ahead. They can look pretty nice with some clear switch tops. As far as affecting switch feel, they don't do anything.I'm planning to.

Hi,
There's a issue for silent red.
Silent black is deliver earlier.
But representative inform us silent red will has another week delay.
Which means the rest of orders will ship around late June.
And they made a mistake for RGB silver as well.
Seems Cherry shipped 51NN instead of 51NA.
So there's another week delay for silver as well.
But for most order contains silver only should already sent.

Does anyone have enough extra silver switches to cover a 60% board that they would be willing to sell me? Or know where to buy them?
