I just get pre-order confirmations which don't contain all the keys I want. Are they out of stock? It seems now that everything is available.

They should appear in your notification, even though they are not in stock and will be available in early 2013.
I will order or pre-order at least 1000 of each color.

If I want to turn a KBT Pure with MX Browns into ergo clears do I want to buy MXCLEAR plate mount just for the stems? Or are the internals different and I need PCB mount MXCLEAR?

All parts are interchangable, except for the MXLOCK.

Is this still on? Also, I will order enough for one keyboard but in addition one of each to have them, is this frowned upon?

It just drives 7bit crazy, but this is not important, go on.
Also, you should know that the keys won't come to you for quite some time most likely

Switches this time, switches!
Some are available within a few days and other will take half a year.

Danke

PCB-mount are those with the fixing pins (NW).
I think I will order switches this week, because if we wait any longer we can wait for some of them even longer than until spring 2013.

Switches are pre-ordered from the manufacturer. I'm waiting for definite delivery dates.

why yes, as in I wouldn't order at those myself; you?
But, I'll quite probably jump on later this year anyhow; will help pricing a little and
gives me switches! 
Shipping costs are $5 no matter how many are ordered.
Worldwide!
Also, prices are in USD.
Didn't you say order over 100 and shipping cost was free?

Nice, thanks for the update 7bit. 0.70 USD/switch is a good price as is the shipping cost.

I've changed this.

Oh well, in that case I may be persuaded not to order
maybe the free shipping offer was a scam to get more orders!!
(I'm joking)

The good news is that I will not raise the prices. Also, try to get them cheaper somewhere else.

If you ordered, yes.
I'm still waiting for delivery dates.
Then I look for some PayPal guy (EUR payments can be done immediately).
Then I collect money.

I have a couple questions if you don't mind, I'm relatively new to the mech keyboard scene.
If I just wanted to put clear switches on my poker and make ergo clears wouldi want the pcb or non pcb mounted ones?
I think you have already placed a big order but if I were to order some soon how would that work? I just get them whenever they are available?

Brown Springs, Clear Sliders, PCB?

The Poker is PCB mounted, so you can uopen the switches and swap the springs and stems (or slider).
The only difference between those switches are the 2 fixing pins at the underside for PCB mounting.
