Why are there no Pink/Fuschia or UV/Purple rectangular LEDs?

Right here

Don't you always love free shipping from China?

Those show $2.00 shipping for me.

Wow. $26.80 for 100? Nah, I'll pass...

$16.92 for 100 if you buy two packs of 50 since the 50 pack ships free.  Still, it's twice as much as any of the other colors.

Bought a broken iphone 5 a while back. Stripped it and sent the back to get anodized. Got it back today and swapped everything over!

Nope, the blue legends on the fronts are just pad-printed.  The only double-shot cap in blue is the one for Fn.

It's a replacement keyboard for a Toshiba T3100SX, one of the series that had Alps switches.

At least 7 lbs of incredibly dirty "vintage computer buttons" that I was goaded into buying on eBay while hanging out on IRC last week  :eek:

At least some thick Wyse and some thin Wyse.  A few obvious typewriter keys.  At least one Cherry MX switch still attached.  Haven't really looked very closely, want to hose them off first :))

Why are there no Pink/Fuschia or UV/Purple rectangular LEDs?


No clue. I have been buying rectangular LED's forever, and still have no luck finding purple.
Purple is on the very end of the LED spectrum and is usually made with a red LED with a blue lens or vice versa since they are very pricey to manufacture.

I've had no problem finding clear ones in 3mm and 5mm though.  For example this and this.  No problems with smaller pink LEDs either.

I bought a broken iphone 5 on ebay for about 130 a while back. Took all of the parts off and sent the mid frame to a mutual friend who was able to have it anodized for me for about 110 and re-laser the back text back on. Then swapped all the internals from my black iphone5 to this new pink mid frame. Took me quite a few hours.
