Sorry, but they are not the same price anymore.
You can be glad I did not yet pack or ship yours.

So about how long does it take from paypal transfer to ship. Just curious if there is a weekly shipping date or some sort of schedule that the switches are shipped on.
Thank you for your time,

Given that you paid, I first have to wait for Acanthophis to update the list of what had been paid by whom.
You are in luck, the switches are in stock, so I only have to pack, put an address sticker on it and bring it to the post office.

Payment/"shipping" update
Payments from Zifle, Deprecated, argyakrivos, and sudowork have been received and marked as shipped for Paypal purposes (to keep them from locking up the PP account). Invoices may or may not reflect the payments yet. Keep checking this thread for the actual ship date(s), or spam this thread/7bit via PM the message "WHERE ARE MY SWITCHES, DID YOU SEND THEM YET." This only includes payments to me via Paypal. Note that the address on your Paypal notifications/notes are not necessarily the addresses 7bit will ship your switches to, he ships to the address on your invoice.

Hi! 20 year old clicky keyboard has died, and I'm thinking of buying a Gigabyte Aivia Osmium keyboard to replace it (a firend has one and I like it). It is mechanical, but not clicky.
So... I was thinkig of getting one and replacing the switches with Greens (which apparently is closest to the old M series). Anyway, that particular keyboard is backlit though, and I think the LED lighting won't interfere with switch replacement. Before I buy the keyboard then break my heart, I was wondering if you knew if the LEDs for backlit keyboards get in the way of switch replacement? Thanks!
(Just wondering if you have this know-how!)

You can insert the LEDs from your keyboard into the new switches. They are all the same.

Fodorfolde: if your old keyboard was an IBM Model M, you could always buy its modern descendant:

It will even be compatible with your old caps, if you prefer them.
As for a new Cherry switch keyboard, swapping switches in and out is a lot of work with a soldering iron. It's even more work if you have to shuffle LEDs too. Those clip into the switches from above, and solder separately from below. So they must be taken off and put back on again too. Easily twice the work.
I'd look at a Cherry MX based keyboard with blues if I were you. Much more available than the occasional one with greens, and although I love both green and blue switches, neither of them is really similar to buckling spring, which I love more!
Try before you buy. And especially before you mod.

Different caps. Different plate. Different GB!
Matias tactile feels in between brown and clear, but also like neither of them. Which one is "best" is all down to personal opinion.

U crazy!!?!??
He should buy my crappy MX switches and take the pain of soldering afterwards instead of buying a superior Model M!

Your switches are wonderful 7bit. I just don't recommend a heavy soldering project as the first solution…

To be honnest, I know real Alps which are tactile and much smoother than the Matias switches.
Actuation force is between browns and clears, BTW and they feel still smoother than both Cherries.
The clicky variant is better than the tactile version and also better than blues, whites and greens.
They have a nicer click than even greens and are between blues and greens in actuation force.

It's all subjective. I've tried clicky Matias. I like it, but not as much as blues or greens. I love the high pitched Cherry click. And there are so many more caps for MX, too.
But they are all fine switches. Different enough that it's down to you which you like.

All it requires to get onto that list is to submit your address including village.
Currently it is very similar to this:
BMW Motorsport GmbH
Ferdinand Porsche
Daimlerstrasse 1
