Only 40 Halverson?

Lol I actually thought he was going to buy one, so he could get the candy. What's wrong with only buying 40? :)
Title: Re: [GB] Cherry MX Linear Grey
Post by: Halverson on Sat, 06 April 2013, 16:39:21: Yea, turns out I have 20~ here already and don't think I'll need more than enough for either an alpha set or for a poker size board.

Title: Re: [GB] Cherry MX Linear Grey
Post by: guilleguillaume on Sat, 06 April 2013, 21:15:56: I feel stupid for asking but...are the switches PCB mounted or Plate mounted?

Maybe the info is there but I can't find it :))
Title: Re: [GB] Cherry MX Linear Grey
Post by: bavman on Sat, 06 April 2013, 23:38:32: 70 cents or 7 cents per switch? It says .070 USD...thats super cheap.

It's 70 cents, but 7 cents per switch would have been great :)
Title: Re: [GB] Cherry MX Linear Grey
Post by: danielucf on Sun, 07 April 2013, 00:23:09: I think it'd be cool to make a GH60 with these switches, I'm in for 70 if I ordered soon enough.
Title: Re: [GB] Cherry MX Linear Grey
Post by: affect656 on Sun, 07 April 2013, 02:56:32: Would be interested in making a phantom with these switches
Title: Re: [GB] Cherry MX Linear Grey

Post by: pexon on Sun, 07 April 2013, 08:55:05: These are plate mount. ;)
Title: Re: [GB] Cherry MX Linear Grey
Post by: pexon on Sun, 07 April 2013, 08:59:10: Thats it, all switches gone.

Will wait to here from supplier tomorrow and then I'll get sending out PayPal invoices.
Title: Re: [GB] Cherry MX Linear Grey
Post by: pexon on Mon, 08 April 2013, 14:56:18: Will here back tomorrow and then I will start sending out the invoices via paypal
Title: Re: [GB] Cherry MX Linear Grey
Post by: WhiteFireDragon on Mon, 08 April 2013, 15:18:05: That actually sold pretty fast, considering greys are not as popular to do a whole board with.

Any chance you can ask them some other switches, like MX whites, clears, red, and blues?
Title: Re: [GB] Cherry MX Linear Grey
Post by: pexon on Mon, 08 April 2013, 16:04:22: I have asked about the Clears etc. MOQ are going to be much higher, like 3-4K, but I think we can shift them. I will wait to hear more tomorrow
Title: Re: [GB] Cherry MX Linear Grey
Post by: ApocalypseMaow on Tue, 09 April 2013, 03:36:18: Yeah, I need some whites, clears, and blues.
Title: Re: [GB] Cherry MX Linear Grey
Post by: pexon on Tue, 09 April 2013, 11:43:54: Looks like we are good to go. Invoices are going out tomorrow! ;)
Title: Re: [GB] Cherry MX Linear Grey HELP!!!
Post by: pexon on Wed, 10 April 2013, 09:50:12: Righto, got some of the same switches in. Now, I am no switch guru, they have 4 pins....

Title: Re: [GB] Cherry MX Linear Grey HELP!!!
Post by: jdcarpe on Wed, 10 April 2013, 09:54:56: Those are plate mount with jumpers (or diodes, can't tell from that pic).
Title: Re: [GB] Cherry MX Linear Grey HELP!!!
Post by: Jocelyn on Wed, 10 April 2013, 09:55:45: Diodes

Jdninja'd, but I'm still on my first cup of coffee :)
Title: Re: [GB] Cherry MX Linear Grey HELP!!!
Post by: pexon on Wed, 10 April 2013, 09:56:12: They have diodes built in? Can they be taken off if needs be? Are you happy with them or not?
Title: Re: [GB] Cherry MX Linear Grey HELP!!!
Post by: Jocelyn on Wed, 10 April 2013, 09:57:29: Easily taken off (out), but I'd send them with the diodes personally.
Title: Re: [GB] Cherry MX Linear Grey HELP!!!
Post by: esoomenona on Wed, 10 April 2013, 09:57:45: Being that they're not soldered yet, I imagine if you pop open all the housings, you can just pull them out.
Title: Re: [GB] Cherry MX Linear Grey HELP!!!
Post by: pexon on Wed, 10 April 2013, 10:00:09: So its a positive?
Title: Re: [GB] Cherry MX Linear Grey HELP!!!
Post by: mashby on Wed, 10 April 2013, 10:07:35: And for those of us who are still newbs, having diodes in a switch do what exactly? :confused:
Title: Re: [GB] Cherry MX Linear Grey HELP!!!
Post by: Jocelyn on Wed, 10 April 2013, 10:09:07: They're for NKRO
Title: Re: [GB] Cherry MX Linear Grey HELP!!!
Post by: pexon on Wed, 10 April 2013, 10:11:56: Well. good news, they are very easily removed.... pop the top off and take the diode out.

(http://i990.photobucket.com/albums/af27/_shrop/IMAG0559_zpsbecbcddc.jpg)

On another note, anyone interested on stickering and lubing before I ship them?

Title: Re: [GB] Cherry MX Linear Grey HELP!!!
Post by: pexon on Thu, 11 April 2013, 08:21:08: Invoicing stage now. Keep a check of the email connected to your PayPal account to see if you got some switches

It seems you didn't claim the money on my fisrt invoice so paypal sent me another one and payment was confirmed in this one. I guess you should cancel one of them :eek:

Could you look into it?

Anyway I've sent you a PM confirming payment.

Unless obesity is tackled, the government predicts that 60% of men, 50% of women and 25% of children in Britain will be obese by 2050. (http://www.bbc.co.uk/science/0/21702372)

Title: Re: [GB] Cherry MX Linear Grey- PACKAGING NOW!
Post by: esoomenona on Sat, 27 April 2013, 10:47:06: False. Just based on the general nature of humanity, people will make the choice to not become obese. Thus, 100% is almost never a probability.

Not that bad, but I wouldn't trust them.

Not complaining, just curious and a total newb with shipping, so I figured I'd ask to be sure.

You knocked this GB out of the park. Thank you so much for doing this. :-*

Clears have the exact same stem as tactile grey, so that works for me :)

Post by: inlikeflynn on Tue, 07 May 2013, 15:30:08: got mine today, thanks Pexon! nice pink bag too.

just a FYI for the future, but switches in a bag leads to bent pins on a lot of the switches. nothing broken, but just a pain sometimes do deal when when installing in my opinion

Post by: Halverson on Tue, 07 May 2013, 15:31:01: Got mine today as well! Ate all the sweets already, yum!

Thanks Fflyn, I will use more bubble wrap next time. Not sent switches in the past, I will figure out a better way next time! If any of them have any issues, let me know, I will send some free replacements.

Post by: watterrbottle on Thu, 09 May 2013, 18:06:53: Got my switches today! Thank you!

And like the poster above, quite a few of the pins are bent, none broken though, so i can gently move them into place, so no biggie
Title: Re: [GB] Cherry MX Linear Grey- Shipped!
Post by: pexon on Thu, 09 May 2013, 18:11:58: Glad you got them. Sorry about the pins. I tried to fill the bags with air to minimize pin bendage, but they had to travel a fair way.
Title: Re: [GB] Cherry MX Linear Grey- Shipped!
Post by: watterrbottle on Thu, 09 May 2013, 18:18:23: No problem you can count me in if you plan on going through with that tactile grey/clear GB

Also these candies are really good lol

Post by: pexon on Fri, 10 May 2013, 03:46:53: Haha! Glad you like them man! :-*

Will be calling the supplier to see if we can work out some decent prices on the Green, Clear (will see if I can get some others) today.

Post by: danielucf on Fri, 10 May 2013, 15:23:51: I got my switches yesterday, been walking around all day with one on a key on top pressing it. Just need GH60 so I can build this manly keyboard with a 10x spacebar and many grey linears :p

I love them, really want to assemble something with them. I might need to acquire another 12-15 and do a TKL instead of GH60.

They should be with you soon mate, not sent anything to Spain before so I am not sure on what it normally takes to get there.

Let me know when you get them :)

Post by: guilleguillaume on Thu, 16 May 2013, 04:53:06: I'm eating a cherry flavour MAOAM Sour right now! Quite convenient :p

They arrived just few minutes ago and they feel really linear and smooth. Now I just need to wait for the GH60 to have a keyboard full of them.

I like them a lot. Big thanks!

LOL, none of this is your fault. I've had one other package go missing and not get delivered, which is what led me to ask the question.

Is there anyone else in this GB that has not received their switches besides me?

So does anyone have 12-15 of these floating around they don't need?
