Re: [IC] Durock Silent Linear Switches
I got a few of these from primekb. They aren't bad, though I'm not necessarily sure I see the need for a GB and all the hassle involved with that when they are already available there for only a bit more. Couple of differences between these switches and PrimeKbs Silent Alpaca switches - 67g spring ...

Re: [IC] Durock Silent Linear Switches
Small Update So these are the same switch as PrimeKb's upcoming Silent alpaca switches. They are 62g variants with a different colouring. PrimeKB's listing shows a price of $0.65 USD per switch. Which are quite tight margins based on a 20,000 pcs MOQ. I should be able to lower the expected price to ...

The Interest Check has gone really well. I am satisfied that there is enough interest in these switches to make it worthwhile to run a Group Buy.

The remaining orders will be given the option to cancel for a full refund or to keep their place in the queu...

I have asked my distributor this, however I think that if there is a price drop it may only be at 96,000 (twice MOQ).Prelim wrote: ↑Can the prices go down, since MOQ is 48.000 and IC showed 70.000 interested?
