Heres what I find on ebay, a keyboard from "Quimax system", and it looks like that it have cherry vintage black switches? Is that mean that I can desolder the switches and turn this into a modern board? Its quite expensive tho, I assume it will work with the soarers xt converter.

According to leading keyboard and health experts, desoldering switches from a rare vintage keyboard will result in hemorrhoids, bad breath and sexual impotence.

Other experts, though, argue that sexual impotence is rather a reason why one would want do desolder switches from a rare vintage keyboard.

Rather go butcher vintage cars for parts

Please protect and maintain these machines for future generations. I assign this responsibility upon thee

imagine venerating an MX switch

Lol my main purpose is to desolder the switch and put my favorite switches on them, making this an upgraded vintage build. Better put some SA keycaps on too. Now I don't know If i can change the big ass enter, or the small ass backspace. I'm about to find out.

Isn’t it either upgraded or vintage?

Perhaps they mean to use other vintage switches? That could satisfy both qualifiers in that case. I doubt it, but I suppose it is possible they want to use vint browns/clears instead of blacks.
