Title: Switch testing?
Post by: Strelok on Fri, 15 March 2013, 17:34:58: I'm trying to decide what switches I want to get for my GH60. I'd like to purchase them from 7bit's switch group buy and have them ready when the GH60 is done.

I'm interested in trying White's and Dark Greys, any ideas how?

It's like $7 to buy a single White from QWERkeys.

I'm considering just buying a ton of switches and reselling the ones I don't want, but that's a pretty high opportunity cost.

Head to a meet or sign up for Hashbaz's Universal Switch Tester when he opens slots again.

Neither of the switch testers have White or Dark Grey unfortunately.
