SpaceBar Crickity sound

[Caro]

Hi guys, i've recently bought this keyboard and its all good and nice, except the spacebar makes a really weird cranky, crickety sound. The keyboard is labeled as "semi-mechanic", whatever that means. The spacebar is held in place by the switch in the middle and 2 stabilizers as most spacebars are. The stabilizers have springs on them and i thought maybe the sound comes from those, so i tried to remove the spacebar and take those out, but i failed miserably. No matter how hard i tried, i simply couldn't get the spacebar out. What do you think i should do? PULL HARDER? Return it and ask for another model? Or is it anyway i can fix it myself?

If you just bought it I wouldn't even mess with it, the easiest thing to do is to exchange it for a brand new one. The only time I would start messing with it is when it's out of warranty

The site i bought it from reviewed it on their forum and the reviewer also said that the spacebar of the model he reviewed made a weird noise. Is it normal for cheap keyboards to have that issue with the spacebar?
