From what I can tell the t1’s were being made by another factory that was making fake zealios and gaterons. One way to see T1 aren’t Gateron is that Gateron always brands their switches (look at zealios) while the T1’s say kbdfans on them.
a mess

Apparently the switches are just available on alibaba (alibaba usually has high minimum order quantities) and these people are “finding them” and then deciding to run a buy.

this is at least the third gb for these things
Apparently all you have to do is go on alibaba and search for durock keyboard switch and a ton of them come up. The minimum order is only 100 for a lot of them; I don’t know why people don’t just buy them there if they want them that much.

Imagine so fundamentally misunderstanding the concept of the free market as to think ethics are specifically intended to be left out of it and not a thoroughly valid and important aspect of being an informed consumer
