I know fairly well how the popular blue,brown,red and black switches feel like, but I'm curious as to know how the other switches feel! I think descriptions or force(g) required to actuate a key doesn't do much justice to how a key truly feels.
So does anyone know how where I might be able to get my hands on some switches?
I'm currently interested in:
Ergo Clears
Black/red with 62g gold korean springs(I see this all the time)
and some switches which are lubed and stickered
P.S:I don't know where I should post this, so if it's the wrong section please move this for me mods, thanks!

Lubed and stickered? I know what lube is but I'm lost on the stickered part. I also would like to try ergo clears

Don't you guys have a forum where all the Singaporeans get together and perhaps meet locally? Oh here it is..

I know a few members there that also frequent here. That would be your best bet to get your hands on some.

My plan is to get a GH60 and buy a couple of each switch (in addition to the one I intend to use) and try the different mix! ;D

yeah me too! I'm quite happy with the browns I have now, but would like to try other switches and build a keyboard!

Same here. It just bugs me not to know how the other switch feels like. It's like not knowing that maybe in fact there's a switch out there that is just for you! And maybe in the end I will prefer my browns, but at least I will know ;D

He means the korean stickers that you put in between the top and bottom body of the switches to fill in the gap that supposedly makes the keys feel more solid.
