I dont wanna live the nightmare that is plucking my keys one by one and installing a tiny, losable, snapping rubber band on each one....

Not a mechanical keyboard person I take it? Ten seconds with google would have stopped you from making a rather stupid post.
The o-ring stops the key from bottoming out which produces the clicking sound you hear so it's mostly for sound absorption but it also has the added benefit of shortening the stroke as well which helps the more ham-fisted typists with finger fatigue.

Brad.ClarkstonBut for what I use my keyboard for, which is gaming and mild typing, the bands disrupt that. I have cherry mx reds, which have a fast and slightly audible clack. The rubber bands make it slower to press, and add a tactile bump at the end of a key press. I'm not a fan of that. I'll take loud typing over reduced quality of gameplay any day

Is this some kind of a sick joke? O-rings can be found on eBay for $1-3, including free shipping. And you have the audacity to say the MSRP is $18? Where do you get them from? Apple?
And please don't give me the "but these are genuine" garbage. It's just a small, round piece of rubber. A knock-off of of an O-ring. That's the stupidest thing I've read this month.

I bought these last drop, they weren't very impressive so I would recommend any cheaper alternatives available.

I added O-rings to my Topre switches, but didn't like the reduction in key travel. O-rings on Cherry MX keys similarly reduce travel? What is the consensus on O-rings in general? Reduction in comfort/accuracy for comfort/quietness?

Granite caps? I like the look of those.. Saw some over at PimpMyKeyboard.com that looked pretty nice. Might be my next keycap set..

Beginning of September seems like a really long time for a drop that's going to end on the 25th of this month.
Alright guys. Be cool. No need to argue over o-rings.

AlexPkIt isn't just the O-rings, it is the fact I like having Massdrop send me an email about awesome mechanical keyboard drops every day except when they drop stupid shit like this you can buy for cents at a hardware store. Starting to wonder if I should put massdrop in my spam folder

These Cherry MX Rubber O-Rings in clear DO NOT FIT my Varmillo VA87MR with Gateron Reds.. They are too thick and do not allow many of the keys to depress enough ! :( Boooo

Wow 500 purchased? what separates these from the $2 o-rings on ebay?

IdontknoSome of the ebay $2 o-rings tend to not last nearly as long as the o-rings made by Cherry MX or Max. The cheap rubber used in the eBay o-rings seems to want to dry rot and/or crack fairly quickly compared to the quality Cherry MX and Max offerings. Just remember, you're mileage may and will vary.. This is just my experience with the 'cheap' ebay o-rings.

AntykainBuying o-rings off ebay might (or might not) be hit or miss, but they are definitely not as bad as you're suggesting. Additionally, you can buy 3 or more sets for the price of one here.
The only suggestions as to the quality of these o-rings are: "Industrial grade rubber Thickness: 1.4 mm" no exact material composition, no durometer hardness, no manufacturer name, nothing, this is as much a shot in the dark as any o-ring you'd buy online.

kleung347I actually joined the drop, saw the ship date, and backed out of it. It's especially ridiculous because shipping isn't free either.
kleung347*Sigh* becouse this is Massdrop (as in *Group Buys*) not amazon. If you want a cheap commercial product buy it from them (which I would for this drop - it should not have been created).
The problem with MD currently is to many people do not understand the concept behind the site and bogs the sytem down in cheap commercial products that takes a month to ship ... then they blame the system they created.
