Even bulk red switches are more costly than the other types.
Cherry charging higher price maybe

Fixed.

Red is relatively younger and newer switch compare to other cherry switches, so it is consider rare 1-2years back then. Now, almost all China boards or gaming boards had red switch variant.

If you are interested, some rumors stated that Brown switch had faced shortage after the recent join in by Logitech G710+ with brown switch, LOL...

Good for switch/spring harvesting yo, LOL. Less than RM2 per switch, among the cheapest price and easiest way to get cherry mx switch in Malaysia.
