Can't find any Green switches

The Mexitan
Go to solution Solved by Oozekip,

The WASD code is a really solidly built keyboard. White backlighting, nice weight, and not too flashy. Most people get it for the clears (actually a bit harder to come by than greens sometimes), but there is a green version available that comes with pre-installed o-rings. The tenkeyless version is available on Massdrop right now (shipping outside the US is pretty expensive, though), and there's also a Full-sized version

 

It's what I'm currently using as my primary board, and I really like it. WASD also has the V2, which from my understanding is mostly the same as the Code, but without backlighting and with custom keycaps.

I know they're fairly rare now but I can't find any decent Keyboards with Cherry MX Green switches. Yes I could use blue and brown but to me nothing is quite as good as a green. So yeah, if anyone can recommend to me a good Green switch Keyboard I would be very appreciative.

where are you buying from? The US?

 

And I agree :) I've used every MX switch, alps, and even topre... I simply adore MX green :D

Buying from the UK, call me fussy but I also would prefer something full size however this isn't a big deal. It's rare to find someone who loves greens as well, although I've never used Topre.

there are something rarer then blues? i have literally NEVER heard of greens, what are they like? i have browns and i love them but i wanted blues(got this keyboard for super cheap so i dont really care :D)

I spent $2500 on building my PC and all i do with it is play no games atm & watch anime at 1080p(finally) watch YT and write essays...  nothing, it just sits there collecting dust...

Builds:

The Toaster Project! Northern Bee!

 

The original LAN PC build log! (Old, dead and replaced by The Toaster Project & 5.0)

I live in the US so I'm not too familiar with UK websites, but this was the cheapest fullsize I could find that had greens https://www.getdigital.co.uk/Code-Keyboard-V2B.html?variant=11720&gclid=CNv7pa-MhcwCFQyNaQodQwkDng

 

It's overpriced by a bit, but it's still a good board

I was thinking of the Ducky Shine 69, it's bizzare because it has multiple switches. What are Topre likes there are a few sites that sell Leopold's but my friend doubts they're real.

ew, mixed switch board. But Ducky itself is a good brand

 

Topre's are very nice, but they are the opposite of greens. Very light and easy to type on

It's the only Ducky board I could find in stock with greens, the Shine One does but can't find it anywhere with greens.
