You can buy loose switches from MK.com. Alternatively, you could try hunting the classifieds since you're looking for a small amount of switches.

Welcome to Geekhack! :D

mk.com = http://mechanicalkeyboards.com/ (http://mechanicalkeyboards.com/) in case people don't know

here are there red switch options http://mechanicalkeyboards.com/shop/index.php?l=product_list&c=57 (http://mechanicalkeyboards.com/shop/index.php?l=product_list&c=57)

Also to post your own classifieds WTB thread or similar you will need 2 months of membership and 25 posts. But you can freely buy from other peoples threads anytime.

Another option is to go to http://deskthority.net/group-buys-f50/cherry-mx-taking-pre-orders-t2760.html, sign up for an account there then follow the instructions and you can order exactly how many you need and the shipping fee isn't too bad they will just be coming from Germany so it might take a little while for them to arrive.

The small packs of reds are all sold out at MK, as for deskthority, i've actually messaged that seller 2 weeks ago and have had no response since. So i'm kind of at a loss.

I'll try and see what I have. I think I have some blue springs and can put them in black switches making ghetto reds.

Just PM me your shipping info.
