Please state the pricing for these :)

I'd like to see pricing as well. I'm possibly interested since I missed out on the first round. :)
-
If you can get transparent covers, I want them!

I'm in for this.

meh

Green transparent please :)

Both factory and I decide not to cut that led space for you since some people may not need it, and it is ugly without that part. Price will drop in future orders, not these 3000 left since I have paid for them as a distributor already.

I'd love to see some additional colors, such as orange. :cool:

Anything that is transparent would be awesome!
-

-
Orange transparent sounds cool. I wish I could have gotten some clears for myself last time :-X
-
I'd take a set of clears - or two :)
-
Yes please.
-
id love some solid whites
im so in for some solid white
-
in 1 set transparent cover for 60% :P
-
I am rather tempted by these. :)
Would the switches need desoldering from a Filco Majestouch 2 in order to install these?

i love red translucent

If you have these 3000 on hand in Chicago, I'd pick up 100 clear covers for $37 from you this week. Please PM if so.
-
would probably be in for some transparent ones.
-
Please more red. And green. I'm getting a green itch.
-
sweet!
a want some too :p
one bag transparent
and maybe one solid white
-
I'd be interested in getting some transparent ones if price is lower than last time.
-
I'm interested in some clear transparent ones. Blue transparent would be a nice option too ;-)
-
Clear transparent one too please !
Hopefully we have a variety as well.
-
Interested, hope price goes down, switches alone are expensive :(
-
Yes I'd buy at least 108.
-
Transparent Purple? xD
This would be... EPIC
-
.
-
Hmm.. I would not mind if my switch tops were milky white, so that they looked good on the white plate and diffused the backlight.
However, these switch tops are ABS, right? Cherry's original switch tops are made from another plastic, probably POM.
Aren't these ABS switch tops less durable? I got some knock-off switches with tops made of ABS and the legs have broken on every switch that I have opened.
-
Need to fix the molds--make them not as tight around the switch stems (adds to friction). Then I'd love to get your covers in some color.
-
Green transparent please :)
This!
-
Ill take clear please! Or if you color any transparent!
-
Still the non LED version?
-
Any updates on this round 2?
-

I'm not sure R1 is completed yet.
-
I'd be interested in white.
-
Interested.
By the way, is there a reason why the entire switch housing isn't sold? (instead of just top cover)
-
Seems like there are quite a few from R1 who have not received their tops yet
-
Interested.

That has a lot more components, including metal parts that are fixed. Are you asking them to make those parts too? Also, they still need to correct the inner dimensions of the existing tops--designing and executing the bottoms would need to have even lower tolerances for error.
-
interested 4 transparent definitely plus any other color.
-
im interested too
-
Would love some transparent orange :)
-
is there any word on led switch covers yet? I would be willing to pick up at least 300 if you decide to make those.
-
Very interested in clear transparent.
-
So no space for LEDs? Bummer.
I think a cool color would be a transparent graphite.

These allow for an LED like normal cherry tops, however what was discussed before was the possibility of having a different mold made to allow for switch top removal while leaving LED's intact.
-

What? I thought the only issue what that the tops couldn't be removed with leds in, which is an issue with all mx tops that aren't modified.
Unless I am wrong and these don't support leds for some reason and I missed that.
-
Just do the socket mod and you can keep the stock case

See the post above yours?

What are you even talking about?

You posted that while I was typing mine and I didn't go back and check :P
Notice the time stamp.
-

I think he means the not-at-all-easy-or-clean mod where you cut out that chunk of plastic that holds the LED into the top part of a cherry switch "case". So that allows you to keep the stock "case" (switch enclosure) that you started with.
But that is so tedious and I can't imagine it would be very clean or consistent, and is hardly comparable to buying a custom top.
-
Would love some transparent orange :)
Over 9000 +
the ones I have now have orange stickers under them.
-
Would love to purchase around 300 clear covers now. Also adding interest for purple covers.
-
I would be interested in clear ones.
-
interested!!!
-
Sounds like R1 Canadian orders were never shipped.
-
I saw that as well. Hopefully, that doesn't mean we won't have a second round.
-
Well that's definitely troubling if the first round wasn't sucessfully completed :/

That doesn't appear to be the fault of the GB organizer but the US distributor from what I've seen.

True but the organizer isn't doing anything to help in the process.

Hopefully a second round can go smoothly, a lot of people definitely seem to be interested.
-
what does the switch look like with the 'removable-without-removing-LED' feature?

The part around the led would simply not be there.

What exactly can they do? They don't have extras (or enough extras) and I doubt their talking to the proxy will be any more effective than the people who haven't gotten theirs yet.
-
I'm in for a couple of straight clear sets (non-colored).
Aluminum top plate, white PCB, clear switch tops and clear key caps on my ErgoDoxen... yummmmmmm

The GB organizer is still responsible when people have paid and there items are not shipped.
So your saying if you run a GB a group buy and have someone help with shipping and they don't shop or just don't respond the people who have purchased are SOL?
-
I'm saying that they can't force the proxy to ship it. I don't know that anyone has contacted the group buy organizer yet to see if they can find some kind of solution, so I can only comment that they don't have any extras based on what they've said in the past and that they can't get the proxy to ship any more than the people who participated and are waiting on shipment.
-
I would still love red cover tops and clear. If they come out eventually I would also love some green.
