Yes, the lead time is 10-12 weeks.

UPDATE: Novel Keys will be offering packs of 120 for $39 from within the US.

Update: Novelkeys has agreed to proxy over in the US! I'll update once he has worked out appropriate price to cover customs and shipping to him.

I would be better to get it posted on Geekhack, Enjoyclick etc as well

It's already on GeekHack

Talking to two US vendors. Fairly confident that there will be at least one US proxy for this GB.

Really nice price, I'm in for a set. Can you specify which switches it'll be? Plate/PCB mount and black/clear housing? These will be PCB mount, that way if you needed Plate mount then you can snip the extra pins of to make plate mount compatible switches. The Cherry Part No. is MX3A-11NW. Which are...

Which is incredibly high, to help achieve this I will only be allowing purchases of packs of 120, instead of the however many you wan...

This GB has now ended, order has been placed with Kaihua and paid.

So far the total switches ordered is 2264! So close to a second person winning the giveaway!

Total switches ordered so far is 1620, meaning one lucky person will receive 65 switches of their choice.

Hello, I would like to test the waters of a Group Buy for Kailh Speed Switches. The price would work out to £0.20GBP per switch with an MOQ of 4000 swicthes, I'm waiting on confirmayion if that is 4000 total or 4000 per type. These will be direct from Kaihua, i.e. no middlemen (other than me). I pla...

Hello everyone! My first group buy went off without a hitch https://deskthority.net/group-buys-f50/gateron-switches-group-buy-t15801.html . So I'm back for more this time with added variety. There are the same Gateron switches, all 7 varieties in both standard and SMD housing at £0.24/switch. I've a...

For those who participated in this group buy who haven't yet paid for shipping, could you please do so or get in touch with me. There are only 6 of you left to pay, you should've received at least 5 emails from me.

Thank you to all participants! This Group buy has now closed!

Just over a day left of this GB get your orders in before it closes.

I'd like to order some switches, but I need some time to choose which to get. How long does the GB run? It will run until Friday 12noon GMT. It's worth noting that I'm going to be buying a couple of thousand switches myself and I will have them listed on my store after the buy ends, although they w...

It's been 24 hours since the last order. Anyone else interested?

Do you have some pictures for the clear top/ white bottom switches? Can light shine through the white bottom housing like how it is in Zealios switches or in the older milk color Gateron switches? http://i.imgur.com/qzn8eaL.jpg This is an image of the switches. They are not fully transparent like Z...

That's right. The only community present person I know of who's actually in touch with Gateron is Zeal with his Zealio switches. I guess i may have used the wrong terminology. The clear top/black bottom I have listed have 4 holes for RGB LEDs, and the clear top/white bottom have room and a larger wh...

Something seems to be wrong with the spring weight, it says that Yellow and Black both have a 50g spring, but shouldn't Yellow Gaterons be in between Black and Red Gaterons? Edit: Ok, found the the difference, sorry! Black Gaterons apparently have a steeper increase in force than Yellow Gaterons an...
