I'm asking because I wanted to buy them too and they can be easily found at 0.6/0.7 a piece here.

That's quite a bit, I just bought some for 0.22 each a while back

well, yes, it depends on the quantity
Title: Re: [WTB] MX Clear stems
Post by: The_Beast on Mon, 17 September 2012, 10:30:53
Are you just buying one?



sorry boost ^___^
Title: Re: [WTB] MX Clear stems
Post by: Matt3o on Mon, 17 September 2012, 10:37:46
more like 100-200, I have to ask a quote for that quantity, but it won't never reach 0.22 that's for sure! (I don't understand group buys for mx switches if they can be found so easily)


.
boost at least we are bumping your post, right :)

Start a GB, I'm sure you could sell another 1000 switches ^__^


Demik had 2000 switches to sell and it only took him a day or so
Title: Re: [WTB] MX Clear stems
Post by: DanGWanG on Mon, 17 September 2012, 10:42:34
Yeah, I'd buy another 100 tbh lol

Now if we could only get access to those 62g in bulk...waiting on KS to get that

I think I would buy another 100 too, depending on price :D

I have ~69 clears stems springs if you want them dan

Trade some clears for some 62g springs? :D

i am absolutely ready to drop stupid bucks on more switches.
Title: Re: [WTB] MX Clear stems
Post by: alaricljs on Mon, 17 September 2012, 14:42:23
I could be convinced to run a clear switch GB, but I think the price has gone up... I'll have to double check.
Title: Re: [WTB] MX Clear stems
Post by: sth on Mon, 17 September 2012, 14:43:41
i would be really interested in other switches as well but I know they don't sell as quickly as clears. i have been thinking about white + 62g for a while now but i'm still not sure about the difference in volume being affected by the spring or something else.
Title: Re: [WTB] MX Clear stems
Post by: Computer-Lab in Basement on Mon, 17 September 2012, 14:57:35
I would buy 100 clears if we were to set up a group buy.

Would like to get my hands on these springs. Lol. Hurry up and sell me the stems. Lol
Title: Re: [WTB] MX Clear stems

I would most likely join a GB for clear switches depending on price.

clear springs != 62g springs
Title: Re: [WTB] MX Clear stems
Post by: The_Beast on Mon, 17 September 2012, 16:08:25
What are they?
Title: Re: [WTB] MX Clear stems
Post by: sth on Mon, 17 September 2012, 16:09:51
heavier, for sure. 62g refers to the total compression, not the amount of force required to actuate the switch. 62g springs are actually closer to blue/brown/red springs iirc.
Title: Re: [WTB] MX Clear stems
Post by: alaricljs on Mon, 17 September 2012, 16:13:53
Clears are like... 85g?  That's a guess based on fartin around with clear and 62g springs.
Title: Re: [WTB] MX Clear stems
Post by: sth on Mon, 17 September 2012, 16:15:40
Sounds right... they're probably the same spring used in MX Whites but i  don't have any to verify against.

OK, I thought reds/browns/blues had 45g springs and clears had 65g. Now I know :D

Post by: alaricljs on Mon, 17 September 2012, 17:57:50
Unfortunately no one has the metrics on actuation force for Korean springs (which are measured at full compression).  Cherry's switches are all measured at actuation force which is a partial spring compression.

In regard to clears:  resistance increases sharply up to 100 cN at the bottom.

Just a minor thread jack... what is the difference between blacks and vintage blacks?
Blacks have the same springs as clears right?

hype :)) people think they're smoother. probably because they're worn the hell out and have less material to create friction.
and no, black springs are lighter than clear springs.
Title: Re: [WTB] MX Clear stems
Post by: alaricljs on Mon, 17 September 2012, 19:18:57
Nothing but clears have clear springs.  And the difference between vintage and non is not proven.  People claim that they are 'smoother'  Interestingly some Wyse KBs both very and not so very old have a mix of these vintage and non-vintage blacks.

My mxmini has 50g springs and the slightest touch is registered. Can't even rest your fingers on the home keys. Lol

If a group buy happens im in for at least 200 of these

I'm after some clears too.
Title: Re: [WTB] MX Clear stems

Maybe another group buy should be done lol. Clears are always sought after.

I counted 800 switches with a couple people on the fence due to price.

I'm looking for 100!
Title: Re: [WTB] MX Clear stems
Post by: Matt3o on Tue, 18 September 2012, 02:00:15
I could probably find 1000 clears at €0.55/0.5 which is around $0.72, unfortunately currency exchange doesn't help, but I bet you keyboard gurus could do better :)
Title: Re: [WTB] MX Clear stems
Post by: TheProfosist on Tue, 18 September 2012, 02:14:57
Ill probably need more clears as well i oly got like 450 in the Phantom GB adn will need a hundred or 2 more.
Title: Re: [WTB] MX Clear stems
Post by: mm87 on Tue, 18 September 2012, 02:33:48
I'd be in for about 250ish clears.

might have a few left over, been meaning to mod my g80-3700 but i should have 10-20 left. i'll check at home :)
stems only, no springs or switches.

Post by: Marclgw on Tue, 18 September 2012, 17:55:39
I hope i can host another group buy but sadly, i doubt Cherry allow me to ship direct to USA from warehouse :(

If not i would have done group buy for all the switches.
