Title: [WTB] 3 or 4 Cherry MX Red Switches.
Post by: stancato9 on Tue, 04 March 2014, 17:14:47: Ripped off a few pins on my reds when desoldering with a crappy pump. If anyone can send me a few for a reasonable price I would greatly appreciate it. Thanks. :thumb:

Regardless, good luck.

That is true. Except I dropped my soldering iron on one of the stems and melted it a little. So I still need at least one red stem :p

Thanks :thumb:

Or a black stem if you still have the red spring :D

Yeah that would work! But I'd prefer it to look uniform :p

Thanks but I know they sell switches. I just don't want to pay $20 when I only need 3. :p

If you really only want three, WASD Keyboards sells individual switches for $2 each plus shipping.

If those prices aren't reasonable enough, maybe you'd be better off asking in the Free Stuff thread?

Post by: stancato9 on Fri, 07 March 2014, 11:05:29: I'm in Canada. I'm assuming the shipping will be around that cost.

I'm not in a huge rush so I'll just
take my time. I already posted in the free stuff thread with no response. Thanks :)

Post by: bobola on Sun, 09 March 2014, 14:53:42: I have a Rosewill Cherry Red, is broken on the usb and cracked pcb.
But I'm sure all the switches still works tho.

And I have no idea how to remove the switches
