Keebwerk Nasu - 13 month wait
Queen switches - 3 month wait
Custom CF Half plate - 2 month wait
GMK Redline - 29 month wait

Final build being completely underwhelming - Priceless

It's ok, nothing can live up to the hype after waiting 2 years for it

I don't even like Alice style boards, but your build looks so neat and clean, congrats!, don't let the waiting time make a dent. What's your opinion about the Queen switches?

Thanks! I like the queen's a lot, they have a really long spring which makes them a little unique compared to all the other jwk. They are one of the few switches I've bought a second set of.

Wait you waited for a switch group buy? Not to be disrespectful Love the red metal engine start button keycap

But why’d you put yourself in the pain of waiting for a switch group buy? Are the switches really worth it?

Yes I did, at the time it was the only way to get them and I didn't know if I'd like them but they turned out to be some of my favorite switches.

That’s nice Are they going to be In-stock any time soon? Or are they going to go through an extra GB wave? I wanna try some more deep linears and if these are one of those then I would like to see details!

From 1 to 10 how’d you rate ‘em?

I'm not sure if they get restocked often but if you search "moyu queen switches" you can probably find a store with them in stock.

I'd say an 8 or 9 for me, but everyone has different preferences

This sucks... Hope you can somehow find joy with that keeb. Maybe it'll get better after some modding.

That's the thing with GBs that takes over a year. I personally wouldn't want to wait more than 8 months for a keeb GB and generally avoid GMK GBs. I'm not against certain brands/manufacturer, but I highly doubt that I enjoy purchases that arrives after 1+ year. By the time it arrives, my expectations are either too high or I simply moved on and don't care about it anymore.
