Update 2017/5/4 :
Silent Red is not enough...
When we packing the switches.
We found too many people order silent red which is much more than IC form...
They're not enough even we packed all the switches we plan to sell for retail on our store.
So some of orders include Silent red will delay :(
The queue is FIFO depends on order date.

The other issues is we made a mistake on mounting type of clear.
We ordered PCB mount but list plate mount T_T
We've send mail to guys who ordered switches :)
Please check your mail, if you didn't receive it, please send us message.

Update 2017/5/1 :
Thank you guys.
This GB has ended and we've started shipping this week.
But just get info from Cherry representative that Linear Gray deliver date will delay.
So orders include Linear Gray has to ship later.
Sorry for that :(

GB link here : https://shopkey.doyustudio.com/005swcgb
FB link of this GB : https://www.facebook.com/douystudio/posts/789562617869841

We're going to order some switches.
And some of them is going to put on this GB, 120 pcs each pack.
Include :
1. RGB Cherry silver ($46, 0.383/pc)
2. Non RGB, plate mounted silence red.($48, 0.4/pc)
3. Non RGB, plate mounted Clear (not sure now, 53, 0.44/pc)
4. Non RGB, plate mounted Linear Gray ($40, 0.333/pc)

We made an IC for this GB.
Most people interested in Silver and Silent Red.
But not many people interested in Clear and Linear Gray.
We'll order them anyway, the quantity might limited.
I guess IC not only reflect trend on Geekhack, but also on the market of all people -0-.
We don't want to stock too many items that might not able to sell out for over 1 year.

This GB will end on 4/30 23:59, 2017 (UTC +8)
And start to ship from May 1, 2017.
Ship by small pack, DGM, air pack or DHL.

Since we've ran another Cherry switches GB around Dec 2016.
So we only provide types that do not show in last one.

If shipping fee is > $10 for single pack, mean there might has some error.
Please contact us, include quantity, country in the message to help us spot what cause the issue :)
If you have any question, leave comment here.
Or send us a mail : sy_yang@doyustudio.com, sales@doyustudio.com, or send message to Facebook page.


We received some feedback about other switches.
Like silent black, PCB mount RGB...etc
But the quantity in too low for us :(
For example, it hard for us to sell 2 cases of plate mounted MX Black each year.(16000 pcs)
But, the quotation we get is ask us for 20000 pcs MoQ.
It's way too far compare to the MoQ if we order those switches(Maybe only less than 10 people ask for each type 0.0).
This also means they're hard to sell on the market, so we have to deal with horrible stock if we run the GB for those switches.
We only order some to sell in our store for higher price, and the price might be too high to run a GB.
Anyway, we might do some IC later for those switches.
But in my opinion, possibility to run the GB is not high :(
Sorry for those who are looking for switches we didn't provide.

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?

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".

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?

They're much faster.. just depends if you need to get your abilities off quicker than people with Red/Blacks..etc.

Travel distance and spring weight interest me.  It's a 45g actuation, but it'll bottom out different than a Cherry MX red.

Just joined for some MX Silent Reds. I'm lucky I got them in my Filco board in time to test them out. Only thing I'd like more is just the black stem for aesthetic reasons as I plan on doing spring and housing swaps anyway.

Trigger distance is short.
Bottom distance is short as well.
So they call it "speed".

I can't guarantee.
We haven't get it now.
I don't think sells will care about this issue and check switches for me...
They mainly deal with huge orders from factories -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!

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.


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, that's a low threshold.

We claim 1/2 of real value for orders under $100.
And 1/3 for orders over 100.
Not sure if that's okay.

For Europe custom, most of they are really bothersome.
They charge tax for a bag of cloth that I send to my girlfriend for daily use...
