Hi there!
I am looking for a few spare Space Invaders black clicky switches (just one would be enough but I'd be happy to get a few more).
I recently got a nice NOS PC122 keyboard that, unfortunately, has one switch with a broken slider.
The broken slider is the Numpad minus, that should not get constant usage during typing: therefore I might also consider getting different kind of SI switches as a replacement (of course the clicky ones are preferred).
If anyone has a messed up board around, headed for trash, please let me know.

Thanks.

i have a board which i completely dismanteled exactly for this case. if you need just 1 you only need to pay shipping if you want more, a good price would be 0,5€ each.

Well, I was pretty sure you would jump in the discussion!
Could you estimate the shipping cost for a small box/bag with, say, 5/10 switches? These should suffice to repair the board and have a few more spares around "just in case"...
Thanks

Any news? I have to collect materials for next winter, when I'll finally be able to spend some time restoring a few boards I bought (or maybe not? Or maybe selling some boards? Who knows...)

Sry for the delay, small package would be 6 Euro. I have a few German clicky left, could send a whole board for 30+16.

Great, I think I'll get 10 switches if they still fit within the same shipping cost. A whole board is too much (I hope...) but thanks for your offer. I'll PM you for details if you don't mind.

Just a split second after I posted my comment I thought: "How much will it take to see a MY switch joke?". Well, not so much as it seems...
And by the way: I "owned" a MY G1800 Cherry for about 1 day before my entire body would refuse to even be close to that. Can't think of a more awful combination.
Fingerz go boing boing boing is no good.

They aren’t switches. They’re keycap holders. Best use for G81s is as pearly caps donors for better boards.

My holiday never began so, time for a DM.

And here they are! Spare switches just arrived to my desk.
Thanks Inozenz!
