Payment/"shipping" update
Payments from komar007, Play3r, matt, gruener_Salat, aggiejy, GeorgeK, bw_, hellerbarde, eviltobz, Niall, and BlindAssassin111 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.

Wonderful! Like I said before (which has now disappeared off page) - I assume these will be sent once you've emerged out from under the mountain of R4 caps...

Greys and dark greys are REALLY stiff. I had a grey (tactile) as the spacebar of a clears board for all of 10 minutes before I changed it back!

Thanks

Apologies for any inconvenience

Sorry if this has been asked before, but this is a really long thread. Are springs available? I'm looking for some light springs to make ergo clears and I'm having a hard time finding some.

I will ship everything out this week. It will be the last time before Round 4 has shipped.
Just to be sure, have you shipped my order (#0064) 7bit?

AFAIK, this GB is just for new Cherry MX switches.

Could I please have an update on when mine are likely to be sent - I have asked a few times in the thread (on this page and last) but no response from 7bit as yet...

WFD on GH's GH60 thread suggested that it's actually better to use PCB mount switches on the GH60 as unlike some the plate has the holes and the pins may make it slightly more solid. See
http://geekhack.org/index.php?topic=414 ... #msg865847
I'd ordered some plate mounted switches (grey and clear) some time ago, as they were the original recommendation, but is it too late to change these to PCB mount?
Plate mount ones will work so no worries if too late.

Good question, interested in this, too.

I'm wondering if I messed up when I paid. I haven't seen my name go through with the past two payment updates.

No shupping until Monday next week. I will finish sorting Round 4 over the weekend. Until then, the switches must wait.

This isn't very important for time being, but how do the gh60 orders work, how will the distributor recognize which order is which : D By nickname or..?

I'm waiting for a response from WhiteFireDragon.
They told me I don't need to sort them, so I send them a list.
