Hi,
We're Doyu Studio, and we've ran several GBs.
(One of it haven't finished T_T)

IC form : https://goo.gl/forms/MMCr5INfK8QxqF9w1

We're going to order some switches.
Include :
1. RGB Cherry silver ($46, 0.383/pc)
2. Non RGB, plate mounted silence red.($48, 0.4/pc)
3. Non RGB, plate mounted Clear (not sure now, 53, 0.44/pc)
4. Non RGB, plate mounted Linear Gray ($40, 0.333/pc)

Each pack is 120 pcs

And we've ran another Cherry GB for other switches late 2016.
So this time we offer only types that didn't shows in last GB.

You can calculate shipping fee by add switches into cart on our site.
With quantity you want.
And it will calculate shipping fee here:
https://shopkey.doyustudio.com/006swcb-10

By adding the same quantity (this page is 10 pcs per lot) to cart and chose country in check out page.
It will shows shipping fee.
Sometimes it need refresh page after change country, or go in to check out confirm page.
This is a bug of the extension module.
But we don't know how to fix it know cause it's not developed by us
If shipping fee is > $10 for a pack, mean there might has some error.
You can send us a mail : sy_yang@doyustudio.com or sales@doyustudio.com

The rest will sale in our eBay and online store.
GB will stop once it get our estimate quantity.
Start ship from around May 1.

Can you get PCB Mount Linear Grays/Speed/Silent?

Also, can the other colors be part of the group buy as well? (PCB mounted Black in particular!)

[wodan]

Awesome, nice to see another Sennin32 gb!

This option is missing in the form:
4. Non RGB, plate mounted Linear Gray ($40, 0.333/pc)

Would love PCB-mount blacks.

Would love PCB-mount blacks.

Just cut them down ...

Almost all PCBs allow PCB-mount MX switches so shouldn't be a big problem

Hi,
Normally we prefer plate mounted switch.
Cause PCB mounted has a higher price, and only a small group people (mostly guys love custom keyboards) will buy it.
Which means we have a high risk for stocking switches for pretty long time.
Unless other type is out of stock, or we are not very aggressive for order PCB mounted switches.

Since last GB is end in only 3 months ago.
I guess the quantity of other colors are limited.
So we won't put them for GB this time, sorry

But he wants PCB mount, the switches offered are plate mount so they don't have the legs.

Yup,
We know for those who want a custom keyboard without plate, they need a PCB mounted switches.
But they quantity is way lesser than MoQ.
So it's really hard for us to order so much for limited need

[VereChi]

Support!!

LOL damn just realized this ... DEEEEEEEEEEEEEEERP

[Dreamre]

Would love Cherry MX Silent BLACK switches!

The stem looks sexier IMO... )

[pixelpusher]

Very interested in sliver switches.  I'll fill out the IC form when I get home.  Can't access google docs through work firewall 

[Gosnat]

Woho  I'm in for silent reds!

Would prefer black aswell but with some lube and new springs it won't matter.

[kustom3]

I'd be interested if this was not sold as packs of 120 switches. Way too much for my next keyboard (~70 switches), not enough for two.

[TalkingTree]

Just get heavier aftermarket springs.

Nope. I want the black stem with lighter aftermarket springs to match Gateron KS-3 blacks weight.

[megaforce]

Definitely in for a couple bags of silvers and a clear. Just so we understand it correctly, these will ship from you to us by May 1st? Or from supplier to you?

[KaosJ]

It isn't also possible to have a Silent Red version but RGB? 

Also, i would like smaller packages to let enter this GB to every 60% and 40% user, maybe a 70 pack.   

[JDragon]

Are there any non-RGB MX Silver (black housing)?

Sorry, for now we only offer one spec for each color

From us around May 1st.

[Atredl]

I'm in for this. I've been waiting for a way to get silents ever since mechanicalkeyboards.com ran out.

[dante]

I know Silent MX Blacks aren't a part of the list but I'd be interested in those as well!

[Oatburner]

Interested in MX silvers. RGB ones would be nice, too.

[Owl-]

Interested in the RGB Silvers.

Would love to see RGB Silent Reds in future GB.

Hope we'll get some next time 0.0
Not possible to get every single type, MoQ will be too high and we can't afford the stock risk

[funderburker]

I'd be interested in this as well. Silent MX Blacks are probably the switch I'm really eager to try out. Hopefully they come to the market seperately real soon...

Could you be so kind to add a poll for pcb mounted switches? I'm quite sure that most of us need those. I've never seen a pcb not compatible with pcb mount....

[SpAmRaY]

They are only offering the switches listed in the OP, this has already been said multiple times.

But most standard plate mount boards don't have the extra holes in the PCB.

I'd like them to say it one more time

There seems to be more people who want the MX silent blacks! Any chance of changing red to black?

[Atredl]

I second this

[audax989]

Rgb silent blacks please... 

[Giorgio]

Nome nope keep the reds 😊

The springs in the silent switches are a little more heavy than the standard linears. This happens because the spring is precompressed, you'll see that the force required to start the movement is higher than the non silent counterpart.

In for some RGB Reds, filled in form. Tried the shipping link, but seems to be broken.

Hi,
Not sure why server got error.
Rebooted

[pitfermi]

can you supply RGB brown switches?

[Giorgio]

Google form submitted. Let's wait.

I also want Silent Blacks. Would it not be easier to just run PCB mounts in the group buy?

It's okay.
Maybe we'll found that many people are interested in those switches haha 

[atomicus]

Another vote for RGB Red Silents next time round, it it's possible to source them. They don't seem to be available anywhere.

I got in on some Silvers.  Plan to put them in the M65-A!   

Thanks for running this GB.

Thread locked, as this IC has moved onto the Group Buy phase, and there's a link to the dedicated group buy discussion thread in the OP.  Please use that thread for discussion of the group buy.
