If you don't know desoldering, then there also no much meaning/reason to get switches, not?

Since it is a dummy board, simply plug it out and harvest the stem is more than enough. Those PCB mounted Cherry boards also can take dismantle the switches without solder.

Vintage fonts, vintage quality and vintage built.

That's the point, getting a new or look like new vintage, rare and EOLed stuff is close to strike a toto, the price can be much higher than you expected.

I don't really trust the base of the switch for 2nd hand switches, who know how long had it being used...

For stem, as long as the shape is still there, it is good to go.

On a side note, desoldering switches off dummy board is quite an easy job, as you need not much care to worry about spoiling the pcb, since it is only a dummy.
