No, they are in stock. Just have to ship them out (today or tomorrow).

What is the status on "Cherry MX clear case", I would like to order some blacks but I want to know how long do I have to wait for them

Muirium · 12 Sep 2014, 13:41

My bet is still: "wishful thinking". He might get them… someday.

DanielT · 12 Sep 2014, 14:08

I would have loved some "fake" nixies

Lots of people including me doesn't even know what does "Cherry MX clear case" is. Hardly there will be enough orders.

DanielT · 12 Sep 2014, 17:16

The clear case means the top of the switch is transparent/translucid not black like on standard switches. On the first page of this thread there is a picture of the vintage version of those the rare and expensive Nixdorf blacks.
And the best part these are original Cherry

There should me more orders because these are really cool

kaiserreich · 12 Sep 2014, 17:19

Can you please check #230?
What is it still missing that it cannot ship yet?

7bit · 12 Sep 2014, 17:40

Shipped 2 weeks ago. Maybe takes 3 weeks to arrive.

Well then there are several variants of the clear case for different switches. How are there different from each other? Is the case different for Red and Blue switch for example?

chzel · 12 Sep 2014, 21:00

The "Nixdorfs" are old switches and hard to find, they are basically MX blacks.
The clear cases we are waiting on are a new product, the whole case is clear so that they can be used with an SMD led underneath the switch.
They have are made primarily for the Corsair RBG keyboards (http://www.corsair.com/en/landing/k95-rgb)
and Cherry is giving Corsair a head-start before general availability!
All main flavors should be available when they are released!

I received it this morning.
Thanks

Jersern · 14 Sep 2014, 07:51

Hi,

I'm new here so I'm kinda confused. I want some switches to replace all of the ones on my keyboard. Firstly, what currency is the prices in? USD or EUR? It says EUR but I'm getting the impression it's in USD. Also is shipping $5 world wide? Even to Australia?!

Sorry, just too used to being ripped off for shipping etc just because I live in Australia!

Also, what shipping service do you use? I kinda don't want to wait!

Thanks!

7bit · 14 Sep 2014, 11:32

Prices are in EUR.

Shipping is 4 EUR woldwide, no matter how many switches you order!

Shipping is by simple mail, no tracking, no insurance but if it gets lost I send a replacement or money.

However, you can pay for other shipping methods ...

OMG_its_Roel · 14 Sep 2014, 12:15

i can't wait until the mx locks are availble
and shipping is 4 EUR am i right?

Jersern · 14 Sep 2014, 12:26

What's the difference between the plate and PCB mounted switches?

I have a plate mounted keyboard (Razer Blackwidow Tournament) that I wish to fully replace with Ergo Clears...... so I should use the plate mounted switches right........?

chzel · 14 Sep 2014, 12:35

OMG_its_Roel > Unless the post above yours is a typo, shipping is now 5 EUR!

Jersern > It would be best to use plate mount, to save yourself a bit of trouble. The only difference is that PCB mount switches have two little plastic pins underneath to help with stability. KBs with a plate usually do not have the extra holes on the PCB for those pins, so you have to cut them off.

7bit · 14 Sep 2014, 12:43

No, shipping is 4 EUR, the $5 irritated me.

You need plate mounted switches, ie NN (MXCLEAR not MXCLEAR/NW).

Jersern · 15 Sep 2014, 00:00

Thank you very much!

Switches ordered and paid for

hopefully they'll ship out soon and arrive quickly.

quake4mhger · 15 Sep 2014, 06:06

Regrading to the MXLOCK, When is it going to be available?
And is the price 1.20EUR/each fixed?
Thanks you in advance

7bit · 15 Sep 2014, 08:52

Price is fixed. I wait for a response how long delivery takes.

Jersern · 15 Sep 2014, 12:55

When will the cherry mx clears be ready for shipping?

7bit · 15 Sep 2014, 12:57

In 2 or 3 weeks.

Jersern · 15 Sep 2014, 13:26

Alright thanks ^_^ time to play the waiting game T_T really wished they'd arrive within 3 weeks but oh well....
