Still new here. Is there any benefit to gold plated springs or do they just look cool?

Alright. I might grab a bag for $11. I've been meaning to try something heavier then a blue anyway.Still new here. Is there any benefit to gold plated springs or do they just look cool?
Hello! No proven benefits, Just look cool. IMHO :)
Okay, reasoning behind why I choose flat rate over first class.
1. Boxes are free
2. Shipping is faster
3. Shipping has tracking
4. Invoicing MUCH MUCH easier. Sprit is going to be charging the flat rate for shipping so all I have to do is get the boxes and ship them out. Otherwise I would need to invoice for shipping.
ETC
Price wouldn't be more than a dollar or so less if I chose first class in the first place.
Sorry if this is a bit confusing, I am plaing titanfall and it is 12 at night, I will elaborate later if you need to, but I think I am clear enough :P

So people in USA use this order form. Then they will be sent to you, and you will mail them out to the people that ordered. Correct?

I'd be willing to proxy for Canada, but we don't have flat rates. :( Expedited parcel shipping these springs would range from $6-11 CAD, depending on region.

Sprit, I don't know if you can answer this, but would you say that your 62g springs are heavier then Originative's ?
Also how long will this GB run for?

I don't have the latest infos on what is exactly that 62g in USA currently.
But I have had those springs so far, my 62g is definitely slightly heavier than MX Blue. :)
Any recommendations out there for these springs on linears? I'm using 55g (force between browns and blacks) lubed MX reds, and I quite like them. I feel like getting one of each set, from 62g to 100g just to try them out. I wish there was a spring tester bag :(Hi! remdel :)
Sprit, as I'd mentioned in a PM, GH community considers stock Red/Brown/Blue springs to be 60g--maybe 58g but not 55g. It might be confusing to others to refer to stock light springs as 55g.

What do you mean by you added an initial soft touch? Is this Sprit exclusive :0? I'm assuming other springs don't have this.
Question @ Canadians that are interested in purchasing springs.
How many bags are you expecting to purchase? I'm shipping these in cardboard boxes so the springs don't get crushed/deformed in transit, so I'll need to find the optimal box size!
can it be shipped by first class instead of priority?
You'd need to buy boxes to ship them. Since people will be buying all kinds of order sizes, it likely won't be much more economical to buy a slew of random sized boxes and packing material (tape, peanuts/bubblewrap/foam) than it would to use the Flat Rate boxes. In the long run, it's just easier to go the Flat Rate route since all the needed boxes can be dropped at home.Still new here. Is there any benefit to gold plated springs or do they just look cool?

You should be fine with padded envelopes. It'll cost a stamp to ship vs $8-$13. :)
Hey Sprit,
thanks for the GB!
Can you also offer this for Europe? I could be your proxy for EU.
I could ship the springs in a padded envelope with tracking for ~ 8,50$ to all countries in Europe (worldwide actually).

Stamped envelope: I sent a few springs as samples to someone in a letter envelope, and at least two got deformed/flattened. I'd not send springs as anything but small package after that experience, in a bubble mailer, with extra bubble wrap. Normal letter mail gets squished between a lot of flat letters.

I just talked with Sprit about that. He proposed to use little plastic containers to protect the springs.
The max size of the envelope can be 35cm x 25cm x 5cm and 500g.
I guess we could put the springs in those plastic containers and put that container into the envelope and still be under 5cm height. We'll check what options there are :thumb:

We don't know yet. If we don't find a reasonable solution I'll have to use real boxes, but this will be ~25$ for max 2kg.
I don't think it's worth it to ship 10$ springs in a 25$ box just to avoid some broken springs. It would be cheaper to order 2x the springs you need and sort out the broken ones ;)
We will make a decision on that matter after we have checked all the alternatives.

Padded envelope is absolutely fine. Also, I think DE>UK shipping is probably cheaper than UK>UK shipping :))

I'm thinking this exact same thing! EDIT: ordered!
Yeah, I will cover EU.
The 25$ is the quote for shipping in a box, because people were concerned that the springs might get damaged in a padded envelope.
As I posted earlier this is not reasonable for a set of 11$ springs in my opinion, but that's for you to decide.
The prices for shipping the switches you were talking about are for shipping without tracking.
If you don't need tracking it would be cheaper, but I don't take responsibility for lost shipments.
Gold plated springs sound ridiculous, which is exactly the right thing when you plan on stickers and lube anyway.
Now, I could go for sightly stronger or weaker Reds, but I don't even know which direction I want :s
No 62g option for US orders?Yeah, that's weird..it's still showing up on CAN/EUR order forms.

No 62g option for US orders?
62g - Sorry! Out of stock. :(
I have Produced 100 sets for the PCB GB, but run out in this GB on AST 15:30 Sat.
If many Members want, I need to produce more from the factory.
(MOQ = 50 sets. It will take some 10 days.)
(For EU and Canadian Orders,under 10 sets of 62g are still available.)Edit : run out AST 22:30 Sat.

Alright. I put in an order for 3 sets of 62g springs. Let's see whether it will hit MOQ.
Sprit, I just made an order for 3 sets of 62g springs - will these be shipped to the proxy at a later time? I'm asking because I understand it's now out of stock D:.

From the spreadsheet I received (excluding you), only 3 packs have been claimed so far.
Sprit crossed it out. Guess he ran out.
can you see them through the clear switch top on a blue switch? i can't remember if the stem covers the spring completely
Apparently you can from the front, a little bit, unless you block that part with an LED.
Was my order 65g-100g? [1 of each inbetween, as well]
Sorry, I buy too many things on the internet. I need a better system of keeping track. [I have one; I need to use it. :confused:]
@Canadians
We've broke the 20+ order mark. Expect invoices soon!
I'll be providing 2~5 springs for each weight as testers to all Canadian orders for free!
(Will only be receiving 20x 100g and 120g for testers since they sold out)
Orders Invoiced for Canada, USA.
Invoice will sent soon for EU and Worldwide. ;)

Paypal invoices automatically place your verified address on the page. :p
Restock on 62g pls :(
If you add this box, do we have to do another order ?Hello! Sayso ! ;)
I did not remember which shipping formula I chose, ordered a few days ago ::)
People that have ordered cables from me know that I package everything with care. I already had 500ft of antistatic bubble wrap (literally 1 metre in diameter) and shipping boxes :)
I can get everything packaged up and ready to post within a day. :thumb:
Paid as well.
Bought 8 different kinds of spring sets - one has got to be the perfect one for me :p
Gold springs make me want to get clear switch tops.....
Restock on 62g pls :(
Restock on 62g pls :(
Decided to produce more 62g springs, it will take 10 days. ;)
The Order Form will be open for 62g.
For possible Damages during Long distance Shipping, or by User, ;)
Usually 100sets are enough for a custom Keyboard, but I am trying to offer extra 8-10pcs for damages.
I posted 1set as 110pcs ± 2 pcs, but to prevent some misunderstand,
I have edited , 1set = 100pcs + extra 8~10pcs as my intension in my other GB.
I am doing inspection each set again, seems no problem, but there might always be human errors.
If you got some bad sets, Send me PM, I will fix the problem! ;)
Ordered 62g :D
Ordered 62g :D
the second i saw this buy i knew sifo was going to purchase some.
Yay! Happy these are marked to be shipped soon. I'm sure I've got a big day or two of stickering, lubing, and spring swapping clears in my near future. Can't wait!A labor of love. :)

Looking at the forms, it appears to be cheaper to ship springs to me from Europe than it is to ship from the Canada proxy. I seriously hate Canada Post :/
I may pick some up just for the hell of it, particularly if I decide to go ergo clear.

It's unfortunate that CP's shipping prices are high, but you have to factor in delivery time, exchange rates, 2.5%CC fees, and 3.9% + €0.35 Int'l PP fees. Once you factor in all those fees, it's actually more expensive. Expedited shipping is also not available for off the counter pricing. It already costs less, and ships faster than Tracked Package.
@Canadian orders
Spirt will send our shipment by next week as there was a lack of 62g springs, and we had a couple last minute orders that will all be shipped together.

Spring swapping is tedious, but spring swapping, lubing and stickering is even harder XD
I guess having a beast tool would help a lot, but I don't have one and don't do enough switch modding to actively seek one out.
Everyone should have their tracking # by now, I sent them to your paypal emails. If you didn't get one and want it, just PM me and I will send it to you. Most of these are 2 day shipping, with just a couple are 3 day shipping due to distance. So expect them Wednesday and Thursday.

Yeah, I wish I had a set of beast tools, but I found the parts of a binder clip to suffice. Bent them and after taking apart 20 switches, they were still in perfect condition, so I'll take that. As for stickering, that takes two seconds, it's lubing that I'm gonna hate haha. I have some nice krytox all ready to go on everything, and once I get my plate back, I'll have the Race 2 of my dreams.

Yeah, I wish I had a set of beast tools, but I found the parts of a binder clip to suffice. Bent them and after taking apart 20 switches, they were still in perfect condition, so I'll take that. As for stickering, that takes two seconds, it's lubing that I'm gonna hate haha. I have some nice krytox all ready to go on everything, and once I get my plate back, I'll have the Race 2 of my dreams.
tried the binder clip mod. Couldn't bend them the correct way. Ended up just getting beast tools
Is it too late to get in on this round? I've been toying with picking up a few sets of springs for some potential projects coming up.
Good to know. How would blues with 65g springs from this GB compare to stock blues and stock greens? I'm in the Massdrop GB for an Ergodox kit and still torn on switch choice. I was down to greens, blues, and clears. Now I'm debating getting blues and swapping to the 65g springs.
Hey zeal, any idea on how many springs per weight we're getting per sample pack for the Canadians?
Hopefully there's at least 4 springs for each weight, so I can lighten up my arrow keys with <60g springs :S

Last day to place your order and pay by midnight. :o
Do we part another invoice after it reaches the proxy?Nope, your shipping is all paid and everything. :thumb:
Hey guys,
just a little update for the EU / WORLDWIDE orders.
Although the springs are already in Germany, I didn't get a notification yet. I assume the package is still in Customs. Let's hope it won't take ages until they process the shipment.
As soon as I get them, I will post pictures and start sending out envelopes :)
@Canadian Update
Sprit will be sending out the remaining orders on Friday. I should receive it by next week. :)
Just got my springs! Thanks sprit and HPE1000! Everyone who comes in my office today is going to be confused by all the little baggies of gold springs on my desk :) I love it.
HPE1000, let me know if I had one of the orders with undercharged shipping, no reason you should have to cover that. Not sure if 11 sets qualifies as one of the massive orders or not :)
got mine

obviously will have to do a full keyboard but these 68g feel to be exactly what i was looking for. i wish i had proper measurement tools but the 62g and 55g seem very similar to the korean 55g and 62g springs you get from originative.
Thanks Sprit and HPE for this painless group buy
EMS is much more reliable and better value as compared to other postal services. Much better than Canada Post.
Thanks again Sprit for doing this!

EMS is only a service that every postal service in the world agreed upon coordinating/accepting tracking #'s :)
Canada's "EMS" is just renamed to XPRESSPOST.
Maybe it's just the Ontario Canada Post. :p My local letter/parcel mailmen knows me pretty well now and I have never had a problem with them. :p
I haven't gotten mine yet, is there any tracking number I can use to check where it is?
Haha I thought they were sent already because other people in the thread had gotten theirs, didn't occur to me that it was the other regions. I just got confused because I'm so excited. ^^
Hello! zeroni ! :)
EU 1st Round EMS seems arrived at Proxy Host LechnerDE yesterday. ;) http://geekhack.org/index.php?topic=55888.msg1279167#msg1279167 (http://geekhack.org/index.php?topic=55888.msg1279167#msg1279167)
(I sent international EMS Tracking No. to everybody last week.)
I packed all orders in each Zip bag, but Re-packing and checking addresses, preparing to ship will be an huge job.
He will update soon! ;)
Great! I just hope they don't fly too high, maybe they can't get down. That would be really sad. 8D
I wish Your springs Fly high soon to the beautiful Oslo !
I am new to this GB, but, is it gonna be a 3rd round?
I am new to this GB, but, is it gonna be a 3rd round?
What springs did you need?
Got my springs and everything looks good. Now to decide what to use 120g springs on :eek:
For those who received their springs, any evaluations of the springs itself? :DI have springs, but no switches. Some day I'll have a different keyboard and will be willing to consider disassembling my monoprice -- but for now, that's my only mechanical so ... yeah.
I thought I could receive my springs this week so that I could start my project this weekend. But that's ok, cuz I know HPE1000 and Sprit ship them really fast. :thumb:The Shared EMS Taxi was too busy to start at the very last minute!
Alright guys, I picked up the springs from the customs office today. I am preparing the orders as I write this and will hopefully send out all the springs tomorrow :)Show Image(http://i.imgur.com/izUutxB.jpg)

Thank you!
Yours is one of the orders that didn't go out today by the way. Your have two orders that contradict each other (at least in the spreadsheet).
Sprit sent me these springs for you:
1x 50g
1x 55g
1x 60g
1x 65g
1x 68g
But another entry says you also want 62g springs, but no 68g springs.
What were you invoiced for?
Do we get a tracking number on the package sent from you LechnerDE? Did my springs even ship today?

How did I miss this?! Any chance to get any leftovers?
update for EU / WORLDWIDE orders
Ok guys, I was at the post office today and sent out the majority of the orders. The ones that didn't go out today were not 100% correct so I have to speak with Sprit. For example I have 1x 85g springs for someone who isn't on my list and some other minor errors, but I suppose these were just mislabeled. I will clarify this with Sprit over the weekend and ship them on Monday :thumb:
It should take max. 10 days for these shipments to be delivered. If you don't receive your springs within the next 2 weeks please contact me and I will check the tracking manually.

Canada post, please move the package out of the airport. Many thanks. :-*

It didn't leave Vancouver. Look at Sprit's screenshot of it arriving/flying to Vancouver. "Departure from Airport" time is KR time (16 hours ahead of PST), and arrival is local time. Flying from Asia to Canada takes ~12-13 hours, so that's why it looks like it left Vancouver again. :p
It looks like US orders re-opened for a day. Is it possible to get the heavier springs 100g or 120g springs? Even just a handful to try or use for spacebars would be fine.

He's in Richmond, but he's not quite right with where I live (I'm in Van) :p
My shipping address is my office where I make my cables :)
also a vancouver guy, close to langara college lol
you don't even realize how surprised I am I wasn't in lol.
i think i got confused about how to keep different weights from being mixed up and it seemed like a bad idea to let that have a chance of happening.
Hey Sprit,Hello! Latin00032 ! ;)
What did I order for the second round? I forgot already. :/

60g and 65g. 62g was out when You ordered, Do You want extra 62g? ;)
Hi guys,
I got 55g, 2*62g, and 65g from Sprit. 1 set of 62g are for ergo clears on my 60%.
I can't decide between 55g or 62g for my TKL. I'm putting vintage blacks in. I know it's all down to personal preference but does anyone have any strong opinions on one over the other?
Just trying to avoid desoldering my Keyboard twice! :)
I will use it 50% for typing and 50% for gaming...MOBA and FPS.
(Also, just wanted to mention, really exceptional packing of the springs by Sprit!)

You could do what I'm doing --> mount the switches but not solder them, and use it as a bit of a test bed. That way you avoid the second round of soldering
All packages were just dropped off!
BC ppl should receive their orders tomorrow, and the other provinces should receive their springs next week!

It was dropped off friday afternoon in korea and made it all this way and is out for delivery. :p
So If I want to try Ergo Clear Switch, can I just buy a keyboard with Clear Switch and switch the springs with one of these? If so, which version is the best for ergo clear mod?

62g is the most "common" weight I hear thrown around, but it's all up to personal preference. I believe the origin of the mod was using springs from a MX blue/brown/red, which are around the same 62g weight.

Hi,
Thank you very much for this GB :thumb:
After received the springs from this GB, I tried to do a quick compare with other Cherry MX light spring (60g), here are the results :
*Note: My measurement method is not precise, I don't have professional equipment so I rather use sticks and stones instead. ;D
From the left to right :
Cherry MX 60g , Sprit 62g, Sprit 65gShow Image(http://i.imgur.com/rH6Ykfc.jpg)
I used Singapore Dollar coins to weightShow Image(http://i.imgur.com/hC1gvxE.jpg)
The lightest one is Cherry MX light spring 60g
(7 coins of $1 + 3 coins of 5 cent)Show Image(http://i.imgur.com/Mcq5drm.jpg)
Sprit 62g is a bit heavier than Cherry MX light (~3g)
(8 coins of $1)Show Image(http://i.imgur.com/CgDSFse.jpg)
Sprit 65g is a bit heavier than Sprit 62g (~2.5g)
(8 coins of $1 + 3 coins of 5 cent)Show Image(http://i.imgur.com/v49GTVV.jpg)
In conclusion, Sprit 62g and 65g are obvious heavier than Cherry MX light spring from 2.5-6g, so it should be very useful for modding ergo Clear or Vintage black.
;)
update for EU / WORLDWIDE
Hey guys,
Sprit will ship Round 2 orders to me tomorrow. It should take ~2 weeks until I get them and just like last time I will ship them as soon as I get them :thumb:
Status for Round 1 orders
100% = Shipped
42% = Delivered
42% = Confirmed Complete
Will there be a 3rd set of orders? I need some gold springs in my life.
Received today and loving the springs
And loving you sprit and HPE1000!
Thanks Sprit, yes I did mean to type Krytox 104! I've corrected that now. With regards to some people mentioning ping...I've noticed that a few (very few 3-4 out of 87 I used so far) 62g springs creak a tiny bit on the upstroke. It doesn't bother me at all and it really isn't that much. Still fantastic springs IMO. I have 55g and 65g to test in the coming weeks. I also would say that I use a "minimal" lubing method.
Okay, well it is all done for US orders. On Friday or Saturday I am going to message everyone who didn't respond in this thread saying they got their stuff to be sure everything is alright.
In the end, it looks like my shipping costs were pretty spot on, no refunding is needed, I broke even, maybe lost 10-15 dollars on this, but that is all good :))

please do! 65g is what I'm planning for. That is the lowest weight that can be used for NEW clear stems without lube?
62g and 65g please!
Probably should have stocked up on some extra 62, 65, and 68g springs for Canadians... :-[

I may or may not be speaking for every Torontonistaian but I don't really witness people here making fun of Vancouver. If anything I've heard more about the scenic landscape Vancouver has to offer. I'd like to visit at some point.
awwww. *grizzly bear group hug*

Just submitted the form for 62 and 65! Will we be getting a sampler pack with the order as well? Should I PM sprit if I need to make a change to the order?Hello! Heliosphere ! ;)
Hi sprit,Hello! ;) You are right! :thumb:
I am going to place a order tomorrow, but I have a suggestion for you. Since a full size keyboard is like around 104~108 keys, will that be possible to have your 1 set spring from 100 to like around 105~110? (maybe you can add $.5 or 1 to cover the cost if its too expensive to do it this way?)
Hi Sprit, any chance for normal springs with cheaper price instead of gold-plated?Sure! I will include that!! :thumb:
Does anybody know what is the different between the 18k one and the normal one? different feelings or just look different?
Does anybody know what is the different between the 18k one and the normal one? different feelings or just look different?
The gold plated ones tend to have a ~0.5g-1.5g variance.
And DAMN IT SPRIT IM SPENDING SO MUCH ON SPRINGS :confused:
:-*
Hi Sprit, can i make a proxy for Vietnam ? Can you ship direct to me ?Sure! pmh1410! ;) It will save the Shipping cost a lot! Big Thanks for You! :thumb:

Also, is the general consensus for Ergo-Clear's to use 62g springs?i've seen both 62 & 65 mentioned quite a bit when searching the internet for tips on ergoclears. both are well clear of the 85g that Spirit mentioned as a comparison point for mx clears, but have a little more strength than the springs of reds/browns to ensure that it can get the key back up over the bump. a few people have talked about 62 still being likely to stick occasionally, so i opted for the 65s myself.

Basically I try to follow the Cherry original specs and GeekHack standard.
I have seen lots of different versions of Korean 62g from 2-3 sources for several years.
Some 62g of them are well known to be close to 60g, some 62g are close to 62g.
These variations come from the design concept, length, coil turns, materials, heat treatment of the springs, etc, as we know.
Sure! I tried to add some softness in my 50g - 75g springs, especially when start touching (press).
This comes from the design for the length, coil turns, materials, heat treatment, etc, too.
My 62g is definitely heavier than MX Blue, Brown 60g springs, I love to use them daily on my keyboards.
(Actually I type Mixture of MX Blue + my 60g + 62g + 65g + 68g on my keyboards)
I have been enjoying MX Blue original 60g springs for a couple of years, Now come to love my 65g, and 68g.
and Always loving vintage MX black springs on old cherry boards. (G80-1000, NCR 0528, Wyse, 1501, etc)
How would 65g blues compare to stock blues and stock greens?
If I have understood well the S&H will cost more (7.5 euros) than a set of SS springs (4.5 euros)? Non-sense.

Shipping has always been expensive everywhere...That's why people shouldn't only purchase a single pack. ;)
I ordered a couple sets of springs using your other group buy form (http://geekhack.org/index.php?topic=50580). Can you cancel that order so I can join this group buy instead?
Regarding the sample packs, do we simply add a comment that we want one? How many of each spring will come in the sample pack? Will the samples be normal or gold?
Thanks sprit! We are lucky to have you as part of the community!

Because 3-4 pieces each will be 30-40pcs in 10 small bags, it will increase the EMS weight, and the packing will be a extra job for me, or for the proxy helpers.
Last time Zeal did it for Canadians with his extras.
Glad this is back up! A little bit of advice needed... I really like my stock Clears because it is hard to bottom out thus making them pretty silent (I bottom out on Blues/Browns easily), but want to lighten them up a little bit because of finger fatigue over long sessions.
I see that Vintage Black springs (68-72g), and Black springs (75-80) are available. If Clears are 85g should I be looking at mid-70's to still prevent bottoming out, but make slightly softer than Clears? Is the difference (in terms of fatigue reduction) between Clear and Black springs noticeable enough to warrant the effort, or is Vintage Black perhaps the sweet spot that I am looking for? Just get both and test? Thanks!!
Has a US proxy come forth yet?
Just wondering if I should wait until then to place my order?

I don't mind handling US orders if you guys want...¯(°_o)/¯
I'm not sure if I can pass "springs" as "Documents" via DHL express... in a padded envelope with bubble wrap & with all the springs laying flat.
It would cost $10-13USD(depends on cardboard envelope size) for 1 day overnight "document" delivery. I might just print a couple sheets of "packing slips" ;)
If it gets mailed as a parcel, it'll have to be $15 for the same 1 day overnight delivery. :(
Thanks!! Myster!! :thumb: Please check the costs! 1set bag (100pcs) is ~10g.
I can also take over proxy duty for the US for this round. I'll need to do some research into shipping rates and how to get mailers/boxes at a good price, but I'd be happy to help out. :thumb:

Just put down an order of 2 sets of 62g gold for these delicious springs! When do you think they're able to arrive? :cool:
Anyway we can view the moq?
Anyway we can view the moq?
Good question - I prefer normal springs but I'd definitely change my order to equivalent gold springs if the latter made MOQ but the former didn't.
GB might have been extended til July 15 to gather some more last minute orders in.
Hi Sprit, move all my 100-120g orders to #Gold to push MOQ, I recommend offering the same to any others ordering that weight so we have a chance of gettingOK! I got it ! ;)myour springs.
Also if you could please recount my order to me, I might increase it to help my darling springs. ::) :-*
edit: Nevermind, Zeal did it for me. :)
Am I supposed to receive some sort of confirmation that my order went through?

Your questions answered and PMed.
I will post the MOQ status and start invoicing Tomorrow! ;)
Hi! Guys! :thumb:

Hi sprit,
If you don't mind, please post the MOQ status first so all of us can adjust the order immediately.
I'm pretty sure a lot of people will shift from the non-MOQ to the one has MOQ.
For my case, if 78g light and 100g don't meet the MOQ, I will shift them equally to 62g and 68g.
OK! I will post the MOQ Status in a couple of hrs. ;)Great! Thanks, sprit. I will update my order accordingly.
Can you check my order? I may have chosen 55g, I forget, but if it's not 60g can I change my order to that since the 55g normal didn't reach MOQ?
Sprit, I believe I ordered 85g standard. Since this hasn't made, can I change it to the 78g standard?
I 've Started Invoicing ;)Paid, thanks again for helping me with the little request :p.
How does the invoice come? Am I just billed, or do I get a request for money in an email or something?You get an invoice email through paypal. You can literally click a link in the email to log into paypal and pay it.
Still open for orders for US this round?Hi! ;) Yes!
I didn't receive an invoice yet. Hope i get it before the 20th July so i can pay it in time ;)Hello! Sure! :thumb:
Hey Sprit,
I believe it may be because I resubmitted my original invoice to increase the number of springs, so I assume that invoice 1680 is the correct one.
Shame about the larger springs. Oh well.Hi! ;) 100g and 120g ?
I've paid the invoice, can't wait to get these springs. Thanks for putting this together.

Joined GH for this - should be one day left right?Hello Oz Mate! :)
Ordered a set of 65g!
I wondered why Sprit didn't send me an invoice or even answer to my sending him PMs ....Hello ! I got Orders need to invoice soon. Please be patient for a day or so. ;)
I am going to try Ergo Clear, which weight should I go for? I would want something that is similar to 55G topre.No MX switch is going to feel similar to Topre, regardless of stem type or spring force curve.
Thanks!

Well thats really sad to hear because I love my HHKB but you cant really customize it like MX. I guess im out of luck :/I am going to try Ergo Clear, which weight should I go for?

That being said, for ergo clears, 62g spring = god spring.
I will go ahead and try 62g first and see how that is. Thanks for your advice!I am going to try Ergo Clear, which weight should I go for? I would want something that is similar to 55G topre.
Thanks!
Ergo-clears are usually outfitted with 62g, 65g, or 68g springs. Since it sounds like you're looking for a somewhat heavier key press you might want to try the 68g. I think the consensus, though, is that tactility decreases as spring weight increases. Meaning a 62g clear has a more noticeable bump than a 68g clear so you might want to factor that into your decision. Or you could just order all 3, test them, and keep whichever you like and sell the rest in the classifieds.
Might as well go ahead and order more than 1 spring type since you're already paying shipping.Well thats really sad to hear because I love my HHKB but you cant really customize it like MX.

+1 to this. At least in my experience, the 62g springs are great. Gives a nice "pop" to the switch and reduces the force to just the right amount.
I messaged you several times but I never heard anything back from you. Did you get my messages?
No worries Sprit, I just wanted to make sure that's all. Thanks for everything and I hope you enjoyed your weekend with your familyI messaged you several times but I never heard anything back from you. Did you get my messages?

Shout out to Epzy for amazing shipping!
I'm very happy with the quality of the springs. I can't wait for my new switches to arrive.
Thanks again!
Any update on when the next wave is going to hit EU?
I know the title says orders are still open, but just to clarify, if I order now would I still be able to get them shipped via proxy or is it too late for that? Would probably save a fair chunk of change since epzy and I are in the same country.
Any update on when the next wave is going to hit EU?
Still on schedule as the rest of the world, around Aug 18 onwards.
Which of the springs would be closest to a stock MX green, for reference?
Which of the springs would be closest to a stock MX green, for reference?
I believe "ghetto" greens are made using black springs with blue stems. With that logic, the info on the OP says he thinks 75g springs are closest to current mx blacks.
I highly doubt 3000 hours of a game did anything to the switches.
Considering that Cherry switches are rated for 50M keypresses, I think this is the McRip effect if anything.

Thats what I thought too, but I can definitely notice a difference in my WASD keys vs the other lesser used keys (like Pause and keys like that). Who knows, maybe it's just in my head too lol. Either way it'll be nice to have heavier springs :3
Is this still open? Also, I would like to ask if how much is shipping to philippines?Sure, because extra qty will be produced. ;)
Thanks

Hey guys, is it still possible to order 62g and 65g springs? Is it possible to order the normal ones or are there only gold ones left?
If I just order a sampler kit, is it still possible to order again, after they arrive here in germany? How long will this take approx. ?
You'll receive a PayPal invoice shortly.
Springs are being gold plated. You can expect the springs to ship this month.

I just paid off my invoice that was sent to me earlier today by Sprit. When do you think my gold plated springs will be shipped to me?
I put a request in! Hopefully I'm still in time
They'll make their way to the proxies soon (they haven't been shipped by sprit yet), and then it should be a quick turnaround to you guys. I'll be the person shipping your springs out. ;)

Is it still possible to get in on this order?
Are orders for samplers still open? If not, what sets are still available?
Samplers don't appear to be an option anymore. I was going to put in an order for some 78g gold and a sampler set, but I don't see the sampler available and it's not really worth it to me to only get the one set, what with shipping costs.
It's a shame shipping within Canada is this expensive, and that our tracked options are extremely limited. However, packing springs in a paper envelope would be irresponsible, and if this could happen to keycaps (http://geekhack.org/index.php?topic=62089.0), you can only imagine how springs would look after processing. I ship all my items in corrugated cardboard boxes (https://i.imgur.com/9lZYhVX.jpg) and secure everything in multiple layers of bubble wrap (Picture of R1 Proxy for Gold Springs). Besides, maximum thickness for oversized envelopes is 2cm, and any form of padding would push it over the limit & there still wouldn't be any form of tracking, other than registered mail which requires signature and isn't much cheaper for oversized mail.

Um.. I have ordered 2 sets of 'Standard' 120g springs and I got a invoice saying '18K Gold Springs'.
I have to sent the orders again to make this correct, right?
all of the normal 100/120g springs were changed to gold to meet MOQ
at least, that's what sprit said
all of the normal 100/120g springs were changed to gold to meet MOQ

Yes! Right! ;)
Because of the Cost for small quantity, MOQ for the Gold-plating,
I had to change all the 100/120g to be Gold-plated.
It's added last Friday, and under production this week.
The Price per set had to be changed, really sorry for that, :(
(but the price for the orders by last week will not be changed)
Update August 31th
Standard Springs : under Inspection, Sorting, Packing
Gold Springs : Still under Gold-plating Factory, due to additional 62g, 78g, 100g, 120g added lately. Waiting for finalizing.
* Shipping to Each Proxy Host will be Next week. Sorry for the additional Delay!! ;)

Any idea for the ETA please Sprit ?
At this point I'm going to assume my order was canceled. Never got a response to PM and no invoice.I haven't received a response but i did get the invoice. I think he is just busy but he should eventually get around to sending payment method.

My order was for sample packs unfortunately. Those were removed as an option after I had already placed the order. Its gotten to the point my project is being held up just waiting for a response. I don't know if I should get springs elsewhere, or if I'm supposed to keep waiting for my order to be filled.
First, thanks for putting this together!!!If you don't want the extra springs, i've seen a few people who still want in on this group buy but haven't gotten an invoice :) maybe you could work something out with them ;)
Second, sorry i messed up the first order and put another one through. I haven't gotten an invoice for the 2nd order yet, so I've decided I'll just pay for the first one since it was kind of my fault and I guess 100 extra springs is not actually that bad :)
Cheers! ...and any idea about when we would get these?
thanks again!
Edit: The invoice I paid for is #1969.

Hi Sprit,
I see that it still says “Extra Orders OPEN”.
I just wanted to know if it was only some models, or if all models are still available. I looked on the first post and a few pages back and didn't see the info.

Hello sprite i just bougth a 8 switch tester and i would like like to know what springs do you have ? i would like 8 springs of each weight. I don't need them to be gold plated normal is fine theses are just for testing and want to know the perfect switch in the perfect weight for me.
Made an order :cool:
Any chance of 55gs coming back?
I'm also interested in what you guys think would make the best ergo clear...

In Korea 62g springs are most popular - not just for ergo clears. Some people like 65g and some like 60g. It doesn't seem much but it does make a difference and in the end it's all down to personal preference :)
Haha I ordered a set of 62g and then I came back and ordered 2 sets of 60g one of gold and the other standard. I'm planning on using the 60g for future red or brown switch builds and I have an upcoming ergo clear gon to build :))Made an order :cool:

After using some 62g springs, wouldn't a light breeze in the room cause errant keystrokes with 55 springs? You would never be able to turn a fan on :P
Do you plan to produce lighter springs than 50g?
I'd be interested if yes :)
im gonna put the 100g in my browns, 120g in blues ^^ Not sure what to do with the 85 g.. but i figure something out, maybe put em in the blues, because 120g would probably not hold up in the long run :)

I wouldn't be able to handle that...
I feel like I'd be typing on air :eek:
Hello Sprit,WOW THAT LOOKS SICK! I'm still waiting on mine :(
Today I tried to assemble a keyboard with your Gold 68g for Ergo Clear and Gold 120g for the space bar Cherry MX Black. It's amazing, sprit. Thank you. :thumb:

Hi.Uhh gonna need some clarification on that. I don't understand what you're trying to say :/
Just to be sure before I order...
Is it OK to submit a brand new order as an "Extra Order", or can you only add stuff to an already existing order?

Ahh yes in that case of course :) i've made a few separate orders myself ;D so it should be fine. If you don't add a comment saying 'add to previous order' or whatnot it will be treated as a new one :)Hi.Uhh gonna need some clarification on that. I don't understand what you're trying to say :/

He's saying that he's new to the buy and if it's okay for him to join.
Since people can add to "existing" orders, the would he be able to join the GB with a fresh new order since others can add to theirs.

Is it OK to submit a brand new order as an "Extra Order", or can you only add stuff to an already existing order?
He's saying that he's new to the buy and if it's okay for him to join.
Since people can add to "existing" orders, the would he be able to join the GB with a fresh new order since others can add to theirs.
Also it doesn't hurt to try either way since you either get the invoice or you don't
Great! Thanks for the quick reply
I was told I was to receive my order of springs this week but for some reason it changed and now the date of my package arrival has changed (I just found out that it hasn't even been shipped yet) would you e able to find out some info on my order?
It kept changing. It was originally going to be through you then it changed as zeal was going to send it to me since I also have a 60% case order then it changed to sprit shipping it to me directly and now I'm just really confused. I also originally ordered a model 2 case but I was later informed after asking an update concerning my order that production was not yet completed. I feel that I should have my springs at least since I paid for all my orders and individual shipping separately. I really don't mind waiting but it would really help if it was a bit more organized and i got a straight answer instead of making me feel like I'm being passed around.
Sorrybif it feels like I'm ranting even if you had nothing to do with it
Hello ;)
EMS to China, Vietnam, USA, Canada, Australia, EU shipped.

Synjin,
Please understand that you requested to have your acrylic case combined with your springs order, so we pulled your springs shipment out of Hoff's. It also wasn't until the last day when sprit was shipping the huge box to me, that you told me you ordered a Model 2 instead of 3. I've been accommodating all of your requests, however PMing both sprit and me with different requests will end up confusing both of us. Please try to understand that making last minute changes weren't possible (especially with time zone differences), and when you asked for a Model 3 instead, the box had already been picked up by DHL. Also asking to combine shipments one day, then split shipments the other is really screwing with us.
I also never guaranteed that your package would arrive by a certain date. I can only guarantee a delivery time once it has been shipped from me (which is 1 business day). Now that we've settled with your order, my next import with Sprit is mid-October as I've already said in the other case GB thread.
Hello Guys! ;)
EMS to China, Vietnam, USA, Canada, Australia, EU shipped.
Packing for additional Sampler Kit made some more delay.
I am going to ship some left the independent Orders for Malaysia, Thailand, NZ. Please Give me time.
The PCB, Case combined Orders will ship soon, after collecting shipping cost. ;)
I don't know if I can post this here but I was elected by someone to be the Australian Shipper for all Australian Orders relating to SPRiT's Round 2 Group Buy, hence I'm the one that will be sorting and shipping everyone's orders here in Convict Country 8) .
I've sent off all emails asking for your addresses so relax I'm not some kind of Nigerian Scammer, looking to get anything off you. I have all the orders in my possession and am eager to send them off to their respective owners as soon possible.
Yep, all the shipments sent to me has been sent off around Australia. Have done my part to help make SPRiT's Round 2 a success here in Convict Town :thumb: .

Don't think so, they're pretty much all shipped out at this point

Alright, if anyone has any extra 62g or 100g that they want to sell to me, shoot me a pm :)
Did the springs arrive in Germany yet?
Just a quick update for the US folks in here. I'm returning home after a few days away and will tend to any PMs at that time. I've responded to a few of you saying essentially this same thing, but just wanted to give a global update. :)
Also, the springs have arrived in Wisconsin and have attempted delivery. I will have to stop by the post office tomorrow to pick them up. Then we will get started with distribution. :thumb:

This sounds pretty sweet.
Are you still taking orders?Well.. it says that worldwide order is still open, so I'd guess so. I just put in an order hoping so
Any idea when people in the US should be expecting springs to come in the mail?
Yep! I started packing and shipping last night when I returned home from a trip, but I think I jumped the gun. There were some pre-packaged bags with a selection of springs for individual users, and then some loose bags to be packed up for users. I assumed that the bags with usernames on them were complete and finished, but I think they were missing one spring type each. Due to this, I need to cancel the shipping I've already paid for, open the boxes, repack, and repurchase shipping tonight. I'm really sorry for the delay, everyone. Should be back on track this evening. :thumb:

Thanks Hoff for taking care of everything!
Will we getting a message from you or is there somewhere we can see if our order has been shipped out?
If not, no worries.
Hate to have to ask this again, but if I want to order some springs now am I too late?

I'll be stocking extras on my site. (mostly 60-68gs, very few 50-55g). Will need to get everything out first though.
Last we talked, I believe the "Extra orders open" part was for orders outside of NA that sprit will be fulfilling.Hate to have to ask this again, but if I want to order some springs now am I too late?

Ok. I just placed an order though... Can I consider that void? Also, if you aren't taking orders, should you maybe take down the big form that says orders are open? I don't really like not knowing whether I'm going to be charged. If you can fulfill it though that would be ideal

I dunno if you guys want to see pictures of this in-progress, but here's a little teaser. I got all the small orders packed and ready to ship. I'll be printing labels and getting a bunch of them sent out tonight.

It looks like you already have some on your site... are they really in stock? it looks like I can get all the way to checkout.
Also, is there a reason I can only get next day delivery? 15$ shipping is a drag for springs.

No 78/80? ;_;
Well, im outside NA, lets hope sprit still accept my order. Althou im not even sure if he does ship to south america.
Still a sample, so there's some tuning required. :P;)Show Image(http://puu.sh/cfjtT/c96cb02456.JPG)

Got the email for tracking for my springs today. I originally got some to try out some ergo clears but now I am really wishing I would have bought some super stiff springs instead. MX Clears and MX Blacks are just becoming too light for me. Is there any extra 100/120g+ springs available for NA people?

Hoff, PM me with your address. I'll send you your two missing packs of 62g gold springs on Monday via DHL, and you'll receive it on Tuesday. Shipping costs on me (I'll handle the springs w/ Sprit). I'll also need you to proxy ship a box of springs for a US member, if that's not too much to ask for :P.

Great to see these reaching their destinations! Makes all the time worth it. :)
As for those who have not received their springs yet (US), I paid for another 24 orders tonight and am taking them to the post office tomorrow. I've got about 13 more to do tomorrow, plus the six larger orders. I should be finished up within the next few days if all goes according to plan.

Sorry if this has been asked already, but I have an order for some Sprit keyboards waiting, is that going to hold up delivery of the springs or is it completely separate? I just seem to remember something about them being consolidated but hopefully I'm wrong!

Just went through again, seems like I don't have your order.
Update for the US:
- All small orders but one troublemaker that wanted a dinosaur drawing have been sent out
- Zeal is being a huge help and sending me some packs that I was missing, so I should have the proper spring packs very soon (for below)
- I still have 9 orders to ship out, all of them being the larger boxed ones - I expect to be able to ship most of these tomorrow

Any chance you can confirm if mine were in there?
I just got all of my sprit stuff from Zeal (aside from my pcb)
I have to say that the 100g springs feel kind of great on clears instead of the ergo treatment it had earlier. No idea how 78g feels however. Maybe something slightly lighter would feel better.

Hmm. Unfortunately, as a proxy in this, I don't have all the details associated with the GB and some information is only known by Sprit (I only have the information relevant to my portion of the duties). I can tell you what I know though. I do not have your name in my spreadsheet, and I therefore do not have your order in my house. It's possible that you paid after some cut off and Sprit will be shipping your order direct.
I would recommend PMing Sprit to ask about your order. I don't think there's too much reason to be alarmed and start worrying, but I understand that you'd like to know, so that's what I would do. He should get back to you within a couple days. :thumb:

Just PM'ed, but I sent the money on July 18th, so it should have been part of the Round 1 orders.
Both my experience on this, and Sprit's keyboard buy has not been good. Probably the last Sprit GB I will take part of.
Europe springs will get sent tomorrow! Sorry for the delay.
What I learnt from proxying them:
-finnish towns have fantastic names
-there's a surprising low of mechanical keyboard enthusiasts in southern Europe
-triple checking is better than double checking (TheSoulhunter, who had the biggest order, almost would have gotten only a sampler kit)
All packages get tracking, however sorting the tracking numbers might take longer than the springs to arrive :D
Shipping should take 2-5 days. If you want your tracking number, send me a PM.

I got some springs in the mail today, managed to make around 60 ergo clears for my viper.
I used 55g springs with clears and it seems like ~25-30% of them were sticking at the bottom. I had to switch up the springs till I found ones that were strong enough.
Is this normal? I lubed the stems/springs btw.

That's why the recommended spring weight for ergoclears are 62g and above. ;)
Will the 62g be better for an ergo clear or will the 65 be better? I have heard that it does feels significantly different compared to each other.

I used 50g and 55g on two of my Cherry MX Brown keyboards. The tactile feeling is more obvious on them. I don't use something less than 65g on ergo Clear because I want to avoid the sticky issue that I faced in the past when I used the stock spring 60g.

The brown switches have a different stem than clears, which is what causes the difference in tactile feel, regardless of the spring. You can see it if you scroll down here in Ripsters switch teardown: http://imgur.com/a/RJqM4
Yes, you're right, we shouldn't put anything heavier than the stock on Browns. But what I really mean is lighter because as I said, I used 50g and 55g Korean style while the stock spring of Brown is 60g. When we use something lighter on Brown, it will make the tactile more obvious. This is similar to some Korean use the rare 59g on their Clear because they want to impose on the tactile.I used 50g and 55g on two of my Cherry MX Brown keyboards. The tactile feeling is more obvious on them. I don't use something less than 65g on ergo Clear because I want to avoid the sticky issue that I faced in the past when I used the stock spring 60g.I never tried putting a heavier spring in Browns. Think I read someone on here say that it doesn't make it more tactile.
I use 62g springs for my ergo clears, and only ever had one switch slightly stick. Spamming the key a few times fixed it, and I have never had the problem again.
Wish I would have ordered some 65g springs this last round though.
Light as possible with a slight tactile bump sounds like 50g springs in Browns to me. Lightest springs increase the tactility of the Brown bump.
I love 62g springs in my ErgoClears. No sticking and really great tactility. Just the perfect strength, IMHO. 60g work with lubed stems, 55g... may have issues even with lube, as you seem to have discovered.
Apparently my springs arrived today but I wasn't home. And instead of leaving the package at my back door (which they have a special approval for) they took it with them and I can pick it up on monday. Kinda sad but what can you do.
(could've also been the LEDs I've ordered, but I'm sure those were my springs)
Springs arrived today, thank you blubär and spirit for making this possible :) bist der beste Flo :)
Sprit, can I please get some form of shipping schedule?
I was told over PM that you would be shipping mine soon, but since about a week ago, no word again.
Invoice was paid well in the R1 period (July 18th), and now that both US and Europe have received their springs, I have not even heard so much as a shipping estimate.

I think those that got them already were German. They're on their way, I have your tracking number in front of me, however the tracking system on the website seems broken right now. I can still send you the tracking number via PM if you want.
I have already established that my springs order are not with mr. BlueBar, but waiting with Sprit for my keyboards I have also ordered from him to be built etc. - but if I order some in this 'extra orders' will they also be held up the same way, or will they dispatch quicker?

Also got my *golden* springs, 100g and 120g. Planning a 120g finger breaker 60% keyboard :) I put the springs in some test switches, and so far i like the feeling.

You know, I just realized it might be easier if you just forgo the drawing and send 'em to Last. He's building my Viper, anyways. :)) You can owe me the dino drawing on another package. I'm sure I'll get something from you sooner rather than later.
Due to my indecisiveness, I can't choose whether or not I want these springs. Just wondering when the orders close.
No no no, you're getting a dino drawing, damnit. Last can cut it up and ship it to you with the board. :)) :p
How does shipping work exactly? They are being sent to a proxy, then we need to pay them to ship it to us?

The 62g feels so sublime.
I usually prefer a heavier spring (loved stock Clears) but 62g ErgoClears are orgasmic.
Did you lube them too? If so what type of lube?

100g browns? Is there even a tactile bump anymore?
I put the 100g springs in MX Clears, and already worked a little bit with the board. The tactile bump is definitely there, but it feels somehow wrong. I don't know if scratchy is the right term for it. But definitely interesting as a test and i was interested to do so! I thought it would be great for work when you are angry and have to write mails :)

ofc!
What are people doing for backspace, enter and other switches with stabs?
I figure there will be some extra friction so I put together some 78g swtiches. But I think that's overkill especially when I wanna reduce strain from hitting enter. Just wanna make sure say 68g is enough.
I also found one switch that lost all tactile bump after greasing. Will try a 55g spring in that one...
hi,
is it still possible to order 62g gold springs?
Thanks. Order submitted for 1 set of 62g goldhi,
is it still possible to order 62g gold springs?
I believe so. He still has the order form up for gold springs only.
Has anyone here happend to have contacted Sprit recently? I and several others in another GB of his haven't heard from him in months and are starting to wonder if we should start issuing charge backs on our orders.

Yes, last contact I had with him was on 06 Nov 2014, 10:24. It was related to me proxying, he was making sure everything was fine. Also somebody else from DT recently got springs directly from him, so don't worry you'll get your stuff.
Tell that to the people that have been waiting for a year for their stuff with no updates or anything.

I’m a little late to the party, but I guess late is better than never.
Just to make sure I understand correctly, if I wanted to turn some reds into ghetto blacks, I’d be looking for something like the 72g or the 75g springs?
when will be available the Standard Edition again? I'm interested on 55/60g
Still haven't gotten my springs yet, I believe I'm the only person from the R1 who hasn't.Guys gone radio silent, he is on here mostly every day ( check his profile ) but will not reply to any PM's, emails, etc.
Got an email from Sprit last time I posted here (October 29) saying I haven't received the springs yet. He wrote that he was shipping both my springs+keyboard in 1 week. He further mentioned the reason I haven't gotten my springs is because I have a keyboard order with him. He invoiced me a further $30 for shipping the keyboard.
Fast forward to today, and still no shipping confirmation of both springs or keyboard. I suggested that he ship the springs separately, but total radio silence on that.
Now I'm not sure what to do. I need springs for several projects I'm working on, and not sure if I should just order springs from Taobao, or continue waiting. I'm a pretty patient person, but Sprit's inaction, as well as the fact that he's still taking orders on his 60%, R2, and R3 GB's are really make me think...
That's a nice display :D

Ahh I can't decide if I want to do 62g or 65g for my ergo clear build :(
Sprit, what's going on?
Placed a order last week, and still haven't heard anything. Are the standard 62g & 65g springs still available?

Haven't been following this thread, so pardon my ignorance, but are sampler sets available, and if not, when will they be, if at all?He hasn't been on in over a month and hasn't been invoicing anyone.
Placed an order for the 62g and a set of 65g. I used the order form, hopefully he is still taking orders.
Anywhere else to order these sorts of springs from? (Outside of a group buy, lol?)
I'm not actually looking for golden bling. Especially since it's buried under keycaps and keyswitch plastics.
But I am attracted to the special tempering and weights.
Why does no one read previous posts?

MX Springs Compared
I follow the Cherry Original Specs and GeekHack Standard.
For my 50g ~78g, I have tried to add some softer touch. They start slightly softer and mellow than stock ones.
- My 50g is a little bit softer and lighter than MX Red (55g)
- My 55g is slightly softer and lighter than MX Brown, MX Blue (58g-60g)
- My 60g is similar to MX Blue, but a little bit tighter and stable
- My 62g is slightly heavier than MX Blue
- My 65g is soft but quite heavier than MX Blue
- My 68g-72g is similar to Vintage MX Blacks (soft & cushiony)
- My 78g is a Soft MX Clear Edition, softer & lighter than MX Clear, but same cushiony too.
- My 85g is similar to MX Clear. v1.0 starts little bit solid, v1.1 starts softer

That's very disappointing. The brown springs are too light
....so?
MX Light = red/brown = 55/58-60g korean
note that Originative's graph can also lead to misinterpretations as we don't know which spring they are testing as "MX Light"... is it red or brown? :/

Are the stabs just the wires, or the plastic fixings too?Usually both, but he's out of the plastic mounts at the moment so just the wires.
Is that come with 7.00x Unit wires, or just only 6.25 ?

Have a reference for it?
Well, after almost half a year of using 50g and 55g gold plated springs I can share some feedback.
First the plating, it looks good but that is less important, the gold plating makes the surface smooth. Compared to non plated springs there is no squeaking or scratchy sound when you press the switch and this is whithout lube. I have compared SPRiT springs with springs from GON (55g) and Originative (50g) and the gold plated feel much smoother.
Also there is a difference in the compression curve, I use only linear switches, in particular MX Black Old or Vintage, the springs from Originative and from GON feel linear, SPRiT springs feel more like topre there is a small resistance at the beginning inthe middle the travel is linear and in the end you feel some resistance making the landing soft. This feel is more accentuated with the 55g springs. As a HHKB user I could say that 55g feel almost as 45g Topre.
All of this is based on my daily usage I don't have any tools to measure this, only my fingers.
For me 55g springs make MX Black feel exactly how MX Red should feel.
50g are bit too light, but I think if your are a floating typing or whatever it is called and don't bottom out these are perfect.
Because I like only light and linear switches I can't provide info on other weights except 68g on the spacebar which is great.
SPRiT has done a great job with the design of these springs :thumb:
As a side note, forget the graphs for spring weights published in the past, these don't apply to SPRiT springs at least from what I could notice.
Your report is very interesting, thank you very much for sharing it. It informs our decision to explore this springs. I already got some but I have not had the chance to test them yet.I have only 60% boards, 2 GON NerD60 and one SPRiT 60%, all of them have either Old or Vintage MX Blacks, 2 of the boards use 55g SPRiT springs and one 55g GON springs. I use only Cherry or GMK caps, so maybe with thinner caps the feeling will differ, didn't test that. The boards are rotated depending of the mood I have.
What board and key caps did you use when trying the springs?

What board and key caps did you use when trying the springs?
One the boards with SPRiT 55g has Vintage Blacks plate mounted. The plate doesn't change the feeling too much.
All the switches are stock that means no lube and no stickers, made some tests with lubing and stickers only to realize that for me it was a waste of time, the switches feel nice and smooth without lube, the springs make the switch feel very smooth so for me the lube doesn't add an extra benefit.
Stickers are for me just waste of time, don't understand why people use them, but that's me :p
Anyway, the conclusion is "Use the springs, don't just keep them in a bag!" , I have swapped the springs on all my boards and will do the same on my future boards. My personal favorite are the 55g springs but also 50g are nice, my guess is that 50g with thinner caps like SP DSA (PBT or ABS) should feel really nice.
Will 55g be restocked any time soon?
Interested as well.Will 55g be restocked any time soon?

Hey Sprit,
Is it normal for these to get stuck in customs? Mine have been in the Los Angeles customs office since Monday, April 6 with no signs of activity all week.
Can take as long as a month, maybe more. Usually clears in a week or so.

Yeah, I know I should just be patient, it's just that my TEX Yoda kit arrived yesterday and now I'm itching to build it! I was hoping to have the springs by this weekend. :(
Hey Sprit,Seems it had passed the customs, Processed through Sort Facility LA USPS on 6th, but no more info. ::)

Depends, are you making a JD40 with 40ish switches, or a full-size with 100+?
Making a little assembly line would help a lot with the full-size, less so for the JD40.

The gold stabs are PCB mount so they will not work with a plate.

So, I guess the new 62g spring is the new definitive spring.MX Blues w/ 62g gold springs are sooo nice, they feel smoother, and I put a 72g one in my spacebar, and it all around feels very fluid and comfortable to type on
This might be just what I need for my mx blue switches.

Hello! ;) Due to the complexity,
- Normal stab set as independent, Many ppl want that.
- The Wires Only as independent, many already got plastic parts, so they want wires only.
Can we order gold wires + plastic bits as an option instead of only gold wires? In my situation, I would need the plastic bits and would love to get the gold plated wires :thumb:Appreciate for the opinion ;)

Cherry stabs stock suck, and make green switches feel awful, so thats why I got the stabs, and I got the springs that best matched blue springs, because they are a lot smoother and I don't get the springy feel as much now.Paid the invoice! :D

Quick IC for 55g, 62g, 85g : is ONWhat's the difference between the 62g's in the IC and the 62g's still on the form here?
- A quick IC for 55g, 62g, 85g springs to produce mid-late May. (Both Standard & Gold ver 1.2)
- I'm Not sure for 55g, 85g. The MOQ is 100 sets (10,000 pcs) each. Do You might need that?

There is a difference, the IC is for v1.2. There have been some design and manufacture changes.
Based on the OP, the 62g's in this buy are also v1.2's. Right, SPRiT?Hello! I got my lunch and back. :)
Will you be getting stock of the 72g standard springs any time soon?Hello! In the Next production batch, I will prepare 72g Standard too. It might be in late summer I guess. ;)
I'm new to the process of geekhack group buys, but I submitted an order form for 68g springs. Not sure if there is anything else I'm supposed to do.

Welcome! It's different for each group buy but in general you'll get a paypal invoice for the cost, then wait a while. Then get stuff.

Springs are in stock now; thus, this is not a GB anymore, but individual orders, that are being shipped FIFO, so the waiting time is short.

Ordered some springs last night and got invoice within minutes so yea he's pretty quick.Probably just a coincidence? ::)
Got a small shipment:Show Image(http://i.imgur.com/jexHtu6.jpg?1)
Frosted plate, small amount of Krytox (planning on mixing with EK Mechlube 2 for Ergo Clears), Gold stabs for Orion V2. He also found some limited run 55g springs (three 78g springs were also included). Tons of "Fragile" stickers as well, which look pretty awesome.
Thanks again sprit! :thumb:

Thanks for the pic! No broken or leakage of the Krytox bottle? Its max. 50g big bottle, chosen for sit stable and grab comfortable.
Hello! Prelim ;)
The Standard Stainless Springs You got are v1.2 - triple heat treated, very smooth too, made of high quality materials the other Springs in Korea do not adopt.
the Gold Springs have v1.0 - half matte Gold plated
v1.1 high golssy gold finish
v1.2 medium glossy gold
I'm confused SPRiT, you said me on pm 65g were v1.2 :/
ahh! nice then, thanks for the clarification :thumb:Thanks! ;)

Yep, fill the form with what you want and your contact info, SPRiT will invoice you, you pay and he ships the stuff :)

If I buy right now, will the springs be shipped from the US or from Korea? If it's shipped from Korea I might need to wait until I finish moving out first, since it might arrive after I hvae left this address. Thanks!
Most people prefer springs between 62 and 67g for ergo clears. Below that weight, they do tend to stick. Remember that Cherry springs are measured at actuation, and Korean springs (these ones) are measured at bottom out. Therefore, equivalent Cherry and Korean springs will have different nominal weights.Hi! user 18! how's going? ;)
Ok, a mini stabilizer wire review, since I've finally obtained all the parts for a 60% build (with a sweet FaceW PCB!)
The stabilizer wires are extremely smoothly polished, evenly coated, and require no lubrication for smooth motion. They seem to be good for any future corrosion resistance. I have a set of generic (maybe Cherry, not sure of the origin) stabilizer sets, and those come with very slightly thinner gauge steel gray wires with a somewhat rough finish. These stabilizer wires are definitely much nicer, for anyone min-maxing a build :)
This is what they look like assembled--would look sharp on a build without a plate:

I have been trying to find something (cheap) I can either repurpose or buy to use as a switch lubing station. I know some people recommend using an old switch plate or a faulty one so I have been keeping my eyes open for one but this lube station has me curious has anyone given this a go?
Will 50g or 55g work on blues or are they too weak make them stick?
Also, if gold plating makes stabs smoother, with there ever be gold costar wires? :p
It seems like you will be manufacturing the springs yourself in Korea. How are you manufacturing these springs especially with the large orders?Hello! I don't do any coiling or painting jobs at all :D
I just visit the spring factory known each other for years, sip some tea, chat...
and then go to the jewelry factory, sip, talk.... asking them "DO NOT Steal My Precious!!!!, or I will Kill You~~~~~ >:D
How did I not see this lube station earlier? #instabuy
Well, I think costar style wires deserve a chance to be smooth and beautiful too ;)Will 50g or 55g work on blues or are they too weak make them stick?
Also, if gold plating makes stabs smoother, with there ever be gold costar wires? :p
BIG Respect for Your points ! ;)
- My 50g and 55g work Very fine with MX Blues! but naturally the Clicky sound gets softer! Some prefer this.
- It's NOT because the Gold, because the Wire itself is smoothly polished, and plated even smoother with Au metal particles.
We can plate with Copper, Zinc, Ferrite, Rhodium, Chrome, etc. ::) ::)

I've been waiting for the amd r9 390-390x to drop but I might cave for the 980ti when it drops. Which is a stripped down model of that which I believe is the Titan X,,,,,,hell even if it was the regular Titan those still have amazing rendering power.

yes I misunderstood @SPRiT! that's 90º, not 180º ;)It's my fault! :)
Didn't know turning the springs could affect squeaking. Now I have to try it out =)It affects squeakig, scraching and some uncomfortable feeling, afaik
I'm also looking forward to the possible costar IC ;)

Is there any difference between normal springs and gold plated ones?Hello! ;)
I would need some 62g springs for my MX-Clears, and i don't mind if they don't look good.
It just has to be functional. :)
I am Not for the Bling effects at all, just interested in experiments. I'd like to announce a third kind of Springs in July.

I'm also waiting for an invoice, to which I would like to add an additional set of Cherry stabilizers (also 7u spacebar, no golden wires this time).

hmm. Placed an order a few days ago via the google form, but have yet to receive an invoice. Guess I'll wait a little longer then :p
Just use the order from from the OP. I've received an invoice yesterday, by the way.
Hi sprit, I would like an update on 68g gold v1.2 springs when you produce them; thanks.Hi! Karura! ;)
What is the difference between springs V1 and V2?What he told me in a mail:
Hi wilhelm :)
V 1.1 is high glossy finish
V 1.2 is soft glossy finish added additional 20% surface smoothness process than previous versions but the fundamental structure and force curves are identical
What is the difference between springs V1 and V2?Hello! Eszett ;)
Tried out some of the heavier springs on a couple blue switches. I found I favored between 120-150. I'm wondering if 150 may be too much on a full board.
Going to try it anyways soon ;D
I was able to get a sampler from Sprit with a bunch of different weights, and I settled on 85g springs as the best point for me for clicky switches. The heavier weights were nice, but I think they would have been too fatiguing in the long run.
- A New batch of 55g, 68g, 85g v1.2 coming to me on Sat.
A bit late (a week) than expected, due to the busy season for the factories.
I will post pics when it arrives. Thanks for the People joined this GB.

I got my 62g and 65g springs in the mail today. The wait from Korean took forever but it was definitely worth it. My Poker 2 Blues were too light for me and the 65g springs added new life into them. It doesn't feel like a cheap toy anymore but they are still a bit light. I used the 62g springs for my ergo clears which is more like ergo greys, I plan to use them for my next project.
So is everything on the order form in stock or is this a group buy signup? Sorry. I'm a bit confused!

Usually it takes 2-3 days after the payment, but due to the previous orders shipping, it took ~7 days for recent weeks.
I know Yours has packed, it will shipped out in a couple of days. ;)

does anyone have a newbie guide for lubing springs btw?
Take a small hobby paint brush and dab it into your lubing mixture. I find the less viscous the lube the better when it comes to springs. Then, hold the spring on one end with some tweezers and very lightly brush one side of the spring. Then, put the spring in the the switch housing with the side you just lubed facing down... try to do this without touching the lubed side. Then, continue lubing the other side with the spring in the housing. And remember: a little lube goes a long way... especially with springs. If you put too much the switch will feel mushy or gritty.
Hope this helps!

You may wish to wait a little before transferring money to Sprit. Read through the last page of this thread and the last few pages of the Sprit Model 1,2,3 thread. It is a gamble whether Sprit ships within months or years.
At the moment Sprit is ill (he says), and he hasn't been commenting on any of his threads for a while. He has however been able to ship out large shipments of PCBs to vendors, just not to his own customers.

Hey jlor, I just read the suggested pages of said threads. I saw that you took it upon yourself to ensure that others are informed about Sprit's unreliability, and I am sincerely grateful for that. That makes you a good person, and you deserve a pat on the back.
I will stay away from ordering his springs.
Just a suggestion: I see a pattern regarding the other post I read (Sprit Model 1, 2, 3). I see a lot of you guys getting slowly tortured by losing hope on your orders and then having it restored by misleading updates, and then this cycle just keeps repeating. This seems truly unhealthy to me, to have your faith restored and broken again and again. Just count your losses and move on. Don't expect anything from him anymore, it's just unhealthy. I just really felt for you guys when I read the other post and seeing people get disappointed repeated, and was also genuinely inspired when some of you gave him a lot of benefit of the doubt. Stay positive guys. Don't lose faith in humanity! (haha, Dark Knight reference)
Before I place another order that my or may not be filled, Does anyone have a 7u stab gold stab wire? I need one! PM me if you have one you would be willing to sell!

I bought one from Sprit and it never came in the package with the rest of the items I ordered, messaged him a few weeks ago with no response. I lost hope on it now, he can keep the $4 and I'll take my business elsewhere.
Well here's a switch-up: Doesn't anyone have any 6.25u gold stab wire? I need some! I actually have 7u wire, lol. I think the question isn't really where can we find 7u gold wire, but where can we find gold wire in general!
just email him .. he usualy replys .. sprit does deliver .. i orderd stuff from him as well

Can I still place orders today?
Can I still place orders today?
I did a few weeks ago and it worked out just fine, just that SPRiT took a long time to finally get to my order. You just have to message him every now and then to let him know. It might be frustrating, but he will eventually get around to it.
Silly question: Do I have to check "Save a copy of the message to my outbox" for the PM to appear in my Sent Items?Si. Or have it as a default in your personal settings.

I wrote him on Saturday, but I have not had an answer yet.

This is cool!It is, because I'm in need for a new 60% . I have an order with SPRiT, but I didn't get any updates from him in more than a month. Hope he's OK.
Ordered on Aug 19 and got no response through e-mail after Sept 3 but finally got my package today.Well I'm glad to see that some of the orders are delivered... that gives some hope to the others waiting...
Maybe SPRiT just needs time to prepare the stuff and I think he should update something to let us know.Show Image(http://i.imgur.com/eG3qhEM.jpg)
I will soon use the 18k springs I got from SPRIT on my zealios switch can't wait :thumb:

Sprit sells 24kt springs and you're kind of defeating the purpose of swapping out he springs for Zealios. Zealios already come with gold springs in multiple variations, they are meant to be a better ergo-clear.

Gonna be needing me some gold stabs soon.

The thread is open to allow him to communicate with buyers. No sense in locking a thread like this, it will only take away all hope of an update.
No need to lock the thread - just remove the order form so no new orders can be placed until Sprit explains why some orders are waiting years while other orders are fulfilled in months.I agree with this, also there should be a CAVEAT note that the GB is stale or something so people are aware of that.

Hi Guys!

Hi Guys!
I will read all the replies, and post in detail.
I think they were $12 with the plastic pieces, I'll check later.Hi Guys!
I will read all the replies, and post in detail.
How much did the gold stabs used to go for? Want to buy some but don't know the going rate.
18$ with plastics, 12$ only the wires. Check formthe form isn't linked in OP anymore, or do you have it bookmarked?
I am incredibly late to the party, but have a few questions.
I want a similar actuation force, though slightly less, and very heavy bottoming out force like stock MX clears.
What spring would you recommend to me?
I purchased 68g 24k from mk.com and they are definitively more difficult to the actuation point. From this chart and what I've read, should I shoot for maybe a 78g spring?
I have 67g SPRiT's that aren't going to get used and really want to try 100g-120g. Is this buy still available? Is this something that needs to go in the marketplace?
I didn't know SPRiT made 67g, rather 68g. Where'd you get them?

Thank you for the information, I managed to reverse image search and found the Reddit thread before you showed up. Some questions though; will Cherry/Gateron switches perfectly click to a plate that thick? 5mm seems to be pretty thick considering the standard plate thickness we normally see everywhere. Also, are you going to take orders in the near future? I'm looking to finish my build by August/September and could really use your help.

Would be happy to hear Your New Field Report!
Dank! dorf.
Interesting info guys, thank you for the information and guide. You've got one lovely board there Peter! I made a quick interpretation from the information you both provided and yes, apparently 5mm thick plates won't click the switches in place. I assume that with a 5mm plate what actually holds the switch in place are the soldering joints from the PCB and the flush pressure from the cuts.
Below (on the left) you can see the exact diagram that displays the maximum thickness allowed for a MX switch assembly. I also made a crappy comparison between a normal 1.5mm plate (purple lines) and the 5mm acrylic plate from sprit (blue lines):

Nice to see you back Sprit! Can't wait for your alps springs!
<Answer to a Question>
There have been many stock Cherry springs, sometimes very good, sometimes normal, or bad.
There have been many custom springs in Korea, the quality is sometimes good, sometimes bad.
Good Custom springs will beat the bad Cherry stock ones
Good Custom springs will compete with the good Cherry stock ones ...
It's Not the Colour or Name, but the Quality itself .... IMO
Huzzah! Springs and stabilizers came, and a few springs of another size to try. Thanks, SPRiT!
The ALPS GB steps in my mind is (As the first MX Springs GB in early 2014)
- Hear different opinions - by the end of July
- Additional Sample production by early Aug
- Field test by 10+ chosen members by mid Aug
- Set the Final candidates to produce by late Aug
- Open the GB order form for 2-3 weeks, payment to the Proxy
- Go to the Mass production for 2-3 weeks (Standard & Gold plated versions)
- Inspection and pack for 2-3 weeks
- Ship to the Proxies will take 1 week
- Ship to Each member - 1 week
What You guys think about this?
Hi Sprit, nice to see you're doing fine.
Really looking forward to the Alps springs, I could use some in the near future.
These RGB switches look tasty as well, I want some :(
What is the ETA for these switches? Are you planning to sell them? I am interested, I need some switches for my next build and these look great.Hello Dear ideus !

You can buy anytime. You guys do groupbuy anytime. Its open market.
I am ordering several boxes from Beijing and Shenzen Cherry Distributors (10 min from Hongkong) for my use. Its much cheaper than buying from EU distributors.
Reselling from me will add several dollars to cover DHL, Tax, repack, ... costs.

Got my springs in. Got V3 even though when I submitted the order it was V2 which is a nice surprise. Can't wait to try them out.
and www.eM (http://www.eM)... .com EU will stock them soon.Uhm, why is the EU link censored? If anyone knows which site that would have been please PM it to me
For example, the standard stab set will be $8, same as my GB price.
Thanks! kawasaki161For example, the standard stab set will be $8, same as my GB price.
That is actually interesting, there are not many options for stabs here in the EU. Thank you for asking them to make those more affordable.
How do you control the RGB stuff? I thought your PCB only supports standard LED's.
Yes Mr. Sure! Look at my website plz
But need to wait till mid August as i am extremly busy now, Sorry!
Put in an order
I see it has been posted here before, but I like the burgundy stem color of the MX silent. Fully-transparent housings (as opposed to Gateron's milky-white translucent housings) are also nice IMO, as you can see the switch elements inside.

Hello! I am thinking of placing an order for for some parts to build my own keyboard and had a few questions.
1. Is the 75% layout the same as Octagon v2, B.mini, etc.?
2. Do PCBs come with diodes/resistors presoldered?
3. Do PCBs support underlighting (RGB?) and in-switch LEDs simultaneously?
4. Are there any pictures of the various case/plate options?
5. Is a smoked top plate available? I have a 60% with SPRiT case/plate that I really like (http://imgur.com/a/A5YYX (http://imgur.com/a/A5YYX)) and would like to build a similar looking board in a TKL or 75%.

Hi Sprit, does the lube station support Alps switches? I'm considering waiting till the GB for Alps springs start and getting a few packs of springs and the LSS at the same time. If it's not currently supported, will you do an updated version with Alps support?

Need more info on your side
As You say you want sturdier stable case, I guess You dont like the b.face case for its a stack of multiple thin 2mm and 3mm layers.
I'd like to recommend You take a time to look at the existing commercial cases on the market.
A good source for the Infos might be the www.MechanicalKeyboards.com (http://www.MechanicalKeyboards.com) USA

I'd love to test out the springs, but I'm kinda new to the forum compared to others.Pleasure to have You on behalf of us! :thumb:
I've modded a lot of Matias switches, and I have experience with Alps SKCM Orange, Cream, Blue, Cream Dampened, Green (rare DocuTech), Brown, SKCL Lock, SMK White, Matias quiet click, Matias click.
My personal favorite is Matias click with a dampened stem from a Matias quiet click. It's almost like a blue with a more tactile click.
We need more volunteers to Test !
I can test if you still need more people, i've got plenty of Alps boards.We need more volunteers to Test !
We need 2-3 more Testers!
Hi! For some reason i got two acrylic triangles with holes in them? What are those?Hello Its the KryTox bottle Holders (FREE Items)

Would love to be able to do some comparisons
Parts eh? Ever thought about creating something like what i-Rocks is putting together.

Too hot Everywhere, but might Not for the down under Southern hemisphere Geeks :)
As the Alps had been dominant for two decades from 1980' - 1990', there are hugh amounts of varients, clones more than we can imagine.
Even Alps Japan had overseas factories and foreign partners everywhere in Korea, Taiwan, China, Mexico, America, Costarica ...
So genuine Alps Switches were from many different factories, some collectors insist some delicate differences exist.
Anyway, we are going to bring the History back to life!
We see all the different Cherry MX Clones are everywhere now, Why Not for the Alps?
When a fellow Korean member Duck borrowed my Alps boards to measure the dimensions for his Duck mini v2, three years ago in April, as he got none of Alps, I started preparing for much wider range of Alps custom springs and parts.
Happy Day! I am going to bed! GN!

Apologies if this is the wrong place to ask this - any chance of 6u ALPS stab wire, etc? I have a HHKB plate board from the groupbuy and don't know where to get one to fit :/ Definitely intrigued by what you're doing with ALPS!

Hello! I have read Your posts again, Happy to have You Sir!12 Alps Testers so far, Others have been Emailed or messaged again
If you're looking for another tester I'd be happy to throw my hat in the ring. I have done a bunch of testing with alps mashups with complicated and newer matias and have plenty of loose orange, cream, salmon and green's lying around to test with.
I just got the MX springs I ordered. I love the 62g! It's so crisp inside inside an ergo switch! What's the 63.5g limited edition one like?Do Not lube my springs, please, I do Recommend Dont! :)
Do Not lube my springs, please, I do Recommend Dont!
63.5g is more bounce back, i designed it so, i feel it so, but still not 100% happy.
The Gateron zeal has No springs inside?Do Not lube my springs, please, I do Recommend Dont!
63.5g is more bounce back, i designed it so, i feel it so, but still not 100% happy.
Oops, I shouldn't say ergo switch. I just swapped into in a Zealio housing. Those aren't considered the same thing right?
Hmm, I may have to order some of those springs too!
The Gateron zeal has No springs inside?
The Gateron zeal has No springs inside?No I didn't have a spare switch aside from some zeal switches and a few cherry mx milk switches.
I just changed springs.
Where the new 6u wires could be ordered?Hello!
Guess what came in today?! My i-rocks K76M! It's amazing, you can actually feel Alps style actuation. It's a bit noisy though and the keys have a rattle to them. I put in a Matias spring and it really improved the key feel!

I definitely want to try SPRiT's new alps springs in this keyboard.
I am not an official Tester and have to shut up, but tempted to buy it tomorrow.
Which model would you recommend?

Dang, wow, any chance of a review and/or typing video? Really hyped about these myself. :D
I am not an official Tester and have to shut up, but tempted to buy it tomorrow.
Which model would you recommend?
Well, I only got the blue one because I wanted the clicks. I can say I'd recommend it for modding. IMHO the crappy springs make it way rattle way to much in stock condition.
I'll use it like this for a while, but I'm definitely modding the springs once I can, and I will harvest them for my Infinity 60% PCB. (Eventually my UHK, but that's going to be a good while yet.)
Thanks for the photos, very neat! Looking forward to the video.I am not an official Tester and have to shut up, but tempted to buy it tomorrow.

From images I've found, the pins of these i-Rocks switches appear to be Alps-compatible, but based on this one, I'm very worried by the Cherry-style stem on the bottom of the switch housing:Show Image(https://i.ytimg.com/vi/3lRocP8b0rg/hqdefault.jpg?custom=true&w=168&h=94&stc=true&jpg444=true&jpgq=90&sp=68&sigh=HBLi-0EnqRD5uD7iWR8khYPB-jA)

Hi! Yes! Its produced from the Factory, and under Plating now.
I will ship it from Sept 1st.
So far We have for the Spacebars - 6u, 6.25u, 7u, 8u :)
I'd love to get some Alps springs but can't seem to find the order form?
For The ALPS TestersHehe, JP one must be mine!
(Attachment Link)
I suppose with the gb open, you don't need more testers? Just got my third ALPS board on eBay and working on buying a 4th :DOh! Congrat! :)
Are 4u and 3u gold-plated Cherry stabilizers available?3u 6u are under production, 4u 5u will follow according to the factory schedule. The Factory is one of the Suppliers for Samsung, LG Electronics, and have been manufacturing the MX custom springs for us for the last three years.

Lookin forward to the update.
Sprit, I don't want to be rude, but could you please address your initial group buy thread, where I, and others, are almost at 3 years of waiting with no products or refunds?I second that, still radio silence from sprit. Give the update plz,,,,,,
Apologies to others in this thread for threadjacking.
Moderators, please feel free to delete this if inappropriate.
I just don't know what other recourse to take.
Thanks,
Dansor
Update Mine TOOOOOOO PLZzzzzzzzzzzzzzzOK! YES!!! :)
I honestly don't get why he's allowed to modify old threads into new group buys while his old buys are still in limbo.
I don't think he should be punished and prevented from setting up buys necessarily, but it leaves us with no recourse than do raise a stink until 1 or 2 people get parts, and the rest of us wait patiently thinking maybe this time it will pan out.
No need to lock the thread - just remove the order form so no new orders can be placed until Sprit explains why some orders are waiting years while other orders are fulfilled in months.I agree with this, also there should be a CAVEAT note that the GB is stale or something so people are aware of that.
Good idea, guys. I've updated the OP.
SPRiT should acknowledge that he sort of disappears during the fall/winter/spring. He seems to be most active in the summer, and should probably stop taking and fulfilling orders during the colder months.
I don't say this to pick a fight with you.
I don't say this to pick a fight with you.
Too late. Name your place and time.
I will try my best to deliver the remaining shipments at all by the End of this Month!
I will try my best to deliver the remaining shipments at all by the End of this Month!
Is this in regards to just the alps buy, or the initial group buy as well?
Feel free to respond to the R1 thread to keep things focused.
Sprit, I want to continue giving you the benefit of the doubt, but I'm having trouble.Hit the nail Right on the head!, Right on the head!!
Those of us in the R1 order have heard this same story for almost 3 years.
Could you PLEASE answer the following questions:
1 - Would you be willing to give those of us who want it a refund?
2 - Do you actually have the parts we are waiting for?
ex It seems like many of the orders contain 110% boards. Do you actually HAVE these boards?
3 - If you have these parts, how can you justify, or expect anyone to trust, that new orders will be out in a couple days while old orders just sit?
If I ever get my parts, the first thing I'm doing is putting them up for sale, because I won't be able to stand to look at them.
Hello Guys! ;)
I understand this claim by people is Nothing personal, I have been distracted too many things.
I wake up at 6 AM everyday this week, answering the emails and packing to ship.
When I was busy in September, My helpers have been doing inspection and packing for all the parts in massive quantities.
What I am aiming are :
- The rest of ALPS GB will be shipped out by the end of this October (instead of by the end of September). The delay is partly due to some popular weights had been out of stock, had to produce again.
- The remaining R1 shipments will be solved in a month. As I am focusing on this issue for myself.
- My helpers will fix my previous shipping delay issue, as basically I had been doing all the designs, productions and shippings by myself.
- The other Channels and Distributors are active, they got enough stocks and supply for the American, ASIA, EU users.
- The new orders from my website and the other channels will be shipped out by my helpers quickly in 1-3 days.
Let's watch on the progress.
Thanks!

I just received my Alps springs! Thanks SPRiT!
I hope everyone else receives their orders too.
UGH I just don't understand why he won't respond AT ALL to email, PMs, posts, etc.Ohly crap man! Luckily got my order after few months but still waiting for 60% Alu plate!!!!!!! And still no update or email received either
3+ years!
And no, I just changed my mind :)
Stop ordering from Sprit. He's stolen from others and it's well documented.
