Title: [WTS] 105 MX Brown switches
Post by: katushkin on Sun, 02 March 2014, 00:48:07: So I've just had a WASD with browns changed to clears, so I have 105 switches to sell.

Awesome switches for those who don't know, get someone to replace your blues or your reds ;) Or use the springs to make ergo clears, something I don't want to do just yet, having just got stocks.

I'm looking for $40 or £35, as they sell for $49 for 100 on mechanicalkeyboards.com, but I am located in the UK, so shipping will bring that price up in USD, and hopefully around the same in GBP.

Erm, I don't know. I have a picture of them here if that helps?

And I'm not sure, probably about 3 pounds, something like that maybe? IDK.

Post by: squarefrog on Sun, 02 March 2014, 05:17:42: OK they are plate mount (plate mounts have two pins on the bottom, pcbs mount have 4 pins on the bottom). I can't find PCB browns anywhere without a 4 month lead time. But at least these will let me build an Ergodox in the next month. :thumb:

If you get a clear shipping price and PM me your Paypal I'll take these off your hand.

Post by: squarefrog on Tue, 04 March 2014, 16:24:29: You know you can just clip off the plastic legs to create a plate mount switch?
