Hey guys,
I have a Filco Convertible keyboard which I purchased from
www.keyboardco.com 3 months back. The left hand shift key stopped clicking, initially the key wouldn't return to its position but after wiggling it a few times it now comes back to the top but the click and actuation point is gone.
I'd send it back but postage is expensive and
www.keyboardco.com doesn't replace warranty returns, they just fix the old keyboard by taking it apart and soldering. They told me it sounds like a drink spill as keyboards don't normally stop clicking but I can assure you guys it hasn't had any drinks spilt on it.
I thought I could solder it myself maybe as that's cheaper.
The keyswitches are pretty cheap from China on eBay:

Just wondering if they were genuine at all? Are there any fake Cherry MX's about? I've read about new Cherry MX switches with new stems coming out but think my keyboard has the old versions, so it wouldn't matter too much right?
