Cherry MX and Matias switches

Linuus · 17 Nov 2014, 18:59

7bit, you said you were going to ship my order last Thursday but I haven't received any tracking number, which I paid extra for.

Has it shipped yet? Invoice 725

pasph · 17 Nov 2014, 20:00

Do you know when Matias linear switches will be available?

sero · 19 Nov 2014, 02:08

I thought the alps switches were in stock according to my invoice. Was I mistaken? If so I will take them out of my order because I also ordered a bunch of keys from the RETRO sellout, and I want those keys pretty soon.

I received my switches the other day. Looks great, thanks!

Did you find the time to compile a current stock list?
If so, could you post it?

honoka · 25 Nov 2014, 00:18

Does the preorder price of 0.5 euro apply to all switches not in stock?

Answering my own question so that others don't need to wonder...
The preorder price of 0.5 euro does only apply to the clear case switches.

Note: this is concerning the MX Lock switch GB.

When we get an update I'd love to know how many are still required to reach MOQ. I haven't been very vocal about this GB for this rare switch on GH (I don't know if anyone is) but if I need to I will absolutely take a more active role in promoting this GB to get us MOQ.

Cheers,

Has #0710 shipped ?

7bit · 27 Nov 2014, 13:08

MXCLEAR and MXCLEAR/NW will be back in stock during next week. I just got a shipping note.

ps: Sorry for all the delays, but currently I still dig through the key caps ...

Muirium · 27 Nov 2014, 13:14

Did you just say…

========================= ROUND 5 RUMORS =========================
========================== BREAKING NEWS ==========================

An inside source reveals that a great pile of caps has been sighted at Round 5 HQ. No official confirmation has been provided yet, but speculation is mounting. Is this more than the grab boxes? Could this be the first tranche of Round 5 proper? Has SP hit a deadline at last?

Stay tuned!

Wow! At last I will get my MX Clears to finish my ErgoDox!

nonormals · 30 Nov 2014, 00:18

Any idea if/when you'll get dark greys back in stock？

jjt · 02 Dec 2014, 07:24

Order PM'd. Will I get a reply from the CherryMX bot?

Edit: response received, all is well.

7Bit, any idea when the clear case switches will be in stock ?
I know the details on the front page is not up to date.
Could you give a rough time frame ?
Thanks !

@7bit: Has order #0710 shipped ?

7bit · 05 Dec 2014, 12:03

Just got the message that the MXLOCKs will be delivered in March 2015, if I order until next week.

Because I need to pay up front, it would be nice if some more people order MXLOCKs.

Thanks!

Muirium · 05 Dec 2014, 12:26

March? Cool, you won't have to hold them too long to ship alongside Round 5!

I'll order up a few, of course. Thanks.

OneMoreThing · 06 Dec 2014, 00:02

@7bit: What are your stock levels besides mxlock? I'm deciding whether to ship now or hold off.

Laser · 06 Dec 2014, 13:59

I wonder, if people want to make ergo (or panda) clears, why don't they buy MX GREY switches? (these being in stock)
Any actual difference in the stem, not considering the (anyway to-be-replaced) stiff spring?

chzel · 06 Dec 2014, 14:33

I have wondered of that before, and on a different discussion which I can't find right now, and if I remember correctly the tactile bump of the grey is somewhat sharper than the clears.
I have a few grey's already and I am waiting for clears to test!

Laser · 06 Dec 2014, 14:39

A-ha, thanks - make sure to do a 'blind' test, and to share your results

BTW, i found your discussion (was right in this thread): http://deskthority.net/post174153.html#p174153

LATER EDIT:

I just realized that i do have one grey switch (for the spacebar key), at my mx clear modded TKL.
Both types of switches (the clears and the grey one) have springs from mx blacks, so i can rule stiffness factor out.
Comparative testing reveals interesting results: if i think hard that the grey switch must be more tactile, it starts to seem so. If i think it has no reason to, then it doesn't. I think it means that i _can_ use them
