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.

Still on schedule as the rest of the world, around Aug 18 onwards.

Yes, you can still place your order for proxy shipping.

Just put in an order for some of the 120g springs. Hopefully they can take 3000+ hours of CS:GO better than these stock MX Black springs >.>

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.

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.

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

Does anyone know how the springs in stock clear compare to stock green? I got some green and clear switches to experiment with, but was a bit confused looking at the deskthority wiki for them. The green is listed as having an actuation force of 80cn, and the clear is listed as 65cn. Looking at the springs compared on this post though mx black (deskthority wiki lists as used in ghetto green) is listed as 75g, while clear is listed as 85g.

I'm mainly curious because I was surprised by just how nice the green felt with a clear spring in it, but I don't really know how much of a difference there is. I gave a stock green, green w/ clear spring, and stock clear to two friends and asked them to choose their favorite. One is into keyboards, and the other is not. Both of them chose the modded green over the two stocks. I'm starting to think I may want to get some blue switches and put in springs similar to mx clears.

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 can still place an order for R2. Both regular and gold plated springs are available in 62g and 65g weights. Sampler kit will ship with your spring orders, and the GB / (proxy ship) would be closed by then so no extra individual direct shipments would be made from this GB.

Thank you very much :)

Send my order for 62 65 and 68 springs in standard. I'll choose the best for my ergo clear mod.
How will payment work?
Will I get a invoice or something?
And the last question: When will this be shipped and arrive?

Springs are being gold plated. You can expect the springs to ship this month.

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.  ;)

Sprit, can you add the following to my order 1680:

200 gold 65g springs
100 gold 62g springs

I've already paid the invoice, but maybe you can just send out a new one or I can pay the difference.

Thanks!
