Title: [WTS] MX tactile greys
Post by: Photekq on Wed, 22 January 2014, 14:03:52: These are TACTILE grey MX switches. Very similar to clears but much heavier springs. Read more here : http://deskthority.net/wiki/Cherry_MX_Tactile_Grey

I have 103 of them. Yes, 1 short of 104x.. I ordered 105 from 7bit but lost a few.

Perfect number for a 101-key/102-key WKL board or a regular TKL. I'm sure you could get a few more from the classifieds if you wanted to use them on a 104 board

Looking for £40 (around $65) + shipping. I'm located in the UK, willing to ship worldwide.

Paypal only. If you want to use untracked shipping you must pay as a gift. If you're using tracked shipping you can pay as a gift or as goods. If you pay as goods then you'll pay the fee.

They're never used, plate mount and don't contain diodes.

Post by: Photekq on Wed, 22 January 2014, 14:07:58: I think shipping will be about £5 untracked or £10 tracked to the USA. Not 100% sure, just a rough price. Could be a bit more/less.

They are quite a bit stiffer so with that in mine to the tactile 'feel' is slightly more, but only due to the heavier spring.

Less than clears, i've bought 2 off 7bit aswell
in fact they also feel smoother than browns, they have the exact same shape stem but much heavier spring

That isn't true. They feel more tactile than clears, probably due to the different spring. The stem looks identical to clear stems. I'll take a macro photo of clear stem vs grey stem if needed.
