Decent price for 120 clear switches (well 119 clears and a light grey).  Only problem is it's plate mount so if your after the stems you're going to have to either desolder the switches or snip the top half of the switch off to get at the stems & springs.

8113s are circuit-board mount; the board is just black.

I have bought 2 of these from this person. They are not plate-mounted.

Apologies for the misinfo, that's good to know!  And also sorry for being a douche about your threadcrapping in the hhkb aluminum thread, MagicMeatball.

Doesn't matter if they are PCB mount, they are easily modified.
