[IC] NOS Alps SKCM White, Futaba MA41

[lsoelxi]

I live in Korea. I recently found an unused Alps switch and Futaba swtich in an old electronics store.
It takes a lot of time to buy, package and ship it. So considering group buy.

This will be my first group buy. I can probably make a mistake..

Interested in the Futaba cherry mounts, how much do they cost?

[swampangel]

Sign me up for Alps SKCM White, that seems like a very surprising find. I would buy 200-300 (depending on the price, of course).

Are they all "pine" with the slits in the housing as shown in your first photo? wiki/Alps_SKCL/SKCM_series#Slits

I'm curious about the Cherry MX mount Futabas too, but I would probably only get 100.

[ayehavgunne]

I'm very interested in the Alps SKCM Whites. I would also buy around 200-300 depending on price.

About the Futaba MA switches, are they more clicky on the upstroke? I have a couple boards with them and the clickiness on the downstroke is kinda disappointing but the upstroke is much louder. I hear this can be due to age, though, so I am wondering how some unused ones have faired.

I would like some White Alps too. 220 would be amazing.

0.9$ / each

This is the price I purchased. If have a lot of orders, will be able to lower the price.

1.1$/each.

It is the price when I buy it.
The alps switch has a slit.
The switch is the same as in the picture. That picture I shot myself.

If a large quantity is ordered, the price may go down.

[VelonicV]

Yeah, I'd be down for 120 SKCM Whites on my end.

[bit-shifter]

I'd be interested in 120 Alps SKCM whites to sate my Alps curiosity.

[adamcobabe]

If a large quantity is ordered, the price may go down.

How many white Alps switches are available? I would buy more if there are a lot, but I don't want to be greedy if there are others interested.

[bujorc]

Any patterns/apparent problems on the sliders or with the switches in general. E.g. the recent skcl yellows got those strange patterns on the slider and are therefore not very smooth.
Anyway, +256 SKCM, thanks!

There are more than 5000. Do not worry.

Nice. Maybe I'm overestimating the interest, but I don't think you'll have a hard time selling 5000, especially if they are all complicated Alps. I'd love about 480-500 (but that's already ~10%). Thanks for doing this, by the way.

[listofoptions]

sign me up for 200!

[TheInverseKey]

I'm interested for sure. Looking at 250 switches for me as well.

[pansku]

I'd be interested in 180 Alps if they really are "pines"

[tron]

Mark me down for 180 White SKCM Alps.

[mog_genius88]

I'd like 70x of the skcm whites. I'll take more if needed but only need 70x.

[Lbibass]

I would also be interested in purchasing some of the white alps, depending on the price.

[abrahamstechnology]

How much each for the non-MX mount Futabas?

[lsoelxi]

How much each for the non-MX mount Futabas?

same price. 0.9$/each

[lsoelxi]

Thank you for participating in the Interest check. I will soon start Groupbuy.

[Polecat]

Not going to participate in any more group buys, but I'd be interested in some of the Alps switches if I could purchase them once you have them in hand.
