Nothing to see there for Americans, though. I simply sneaked a few over so we could enjoy American price!
They soon need to revise the "List of most profitable crimes"

You can work out my "margin" from the prices on the page. Let's just say I wasn't in this for the profit. It's my nature to forget about that. Ask my "accountant". The air quotes are all too real!

For people that are unclear with instructions, as I was in the beginning, here are few things that got my order going (I am also in America):
Key: My comments are in this color and are symbolized by '//'
Send a message to CherryMX
Subject line: ORDER // i believe this can be anything, but I put this
Message field:
Now that last part took about 12-18 hours until I got an email from someone to confirm my address and send payment.
I will now show a part of the email I received as an example here (PLEASE follow instructions in email CAREFULLY - with my example, I am only giving a supplement to help you understand what to do):
At this point, you will send that address confirmation to CherryMX and we will now move onto the payment process
Later in the email, this is shown (AS EXAMPLE):
Send USD (not any other currency) payment to the specified PayPal email.
Then you will brought to a page where you can add notes.
Where I put "SAMPLE TEXT..." in the above example, this is the line of text that you will copy and paste in this notes section.
Submit the order and wait p a t i e n t l y :)
At this point, you can send various messages to CherryMX to see whats going on:
Let me know if this helps anyone or if I should take this down. I just figured this would help people that are confused with any instruction, because like I, I want to be sure of everything is right :p
Can't wait for my switches! Thanks again,
jef

Very good stuff, I would definitely find this helpful as a first time buyer; when I bought the first time I just did some back and forth messaging with the bot. Might have been the language I used but I seem to get replies very quickly nowjef wrote: ↑For people that are unclear with instructions, as I was in the beginning, here are few things that got my order going (I am also in America)
Should probably mention that when the payment has been made, you can check that it has gone through by sending a message to the bot to check you current balance (which should be 0 if you have paid the right amount). To get a updated balance you can message the bot with anything, so subject could be "asjhkdfklsh" and the body could be "yosfhasfhjl", and you will get a new invoice.

No, you probably remember the provisional price for the RGB switch preorder, but since the lead time for them is longer even than Round 5, they are not on offer any more!Akiih wrote: ↑Sorry for asking this, but I don't really remember. Have the prices gone up? I'm not sure did I see 0,50cents/per MX switch half a year ago when I last time visited
