If you are in the US you can try mouser? Otherwise Ivan might have some left over from his GB.

I wish I caught this GB, stabs are so hard to find at a reasonable price. If there are any extras, or if someone overbought, I am very interested in a set and more of possible.

Techkeys will have extras

Actually techkeys are stocking extras, get in touch with boilermaker

The guy who created Planck and Atomic boards has this http://ortholinearkeyboards.com/ site. They're carrying Plate mounted Cherry stabilizers apparently.

Another place to look, http://www.arrow.com/components/, I don't remember if I looked for 7x but I ordered a bunch of 2x a few months ago.  Just search by Cherry's part number.

I don't mind buying a wire and replacing it to change the size of the stabilizer if that is at all possible?

Thats the only difference between different sizes, the length of the wire.  Cherry wires are a little fussier on location of bends from my understanding and use a larger wire size.

Some stores should really store them alongside with springs, they're pretty annoying to source atm.

onlinecomponents.com and Verical seem to have them in stock at the moment. P/N G99-0224 for the 1x2 kit.

Newark, Digi-Key, and Mouser also stock them from time to time.

I was completely wrong on the sizes that I need, is there any way that I can buy stabilizers and not have to bend my own wires for them, I need  1x2 2x2.25 1x2.75 1x7

anything between 1x2 and 1x3 use the same stabs and wire.
