I want to do Interest Check for Filco Majestouch 2 S (Cherry MX Pink).
We will need to hit a moq of 20 units. It available in TKL form and Full Size.
Currently my store is sole dealer for Inter ASIA's Filco product line. All filco keyboards sold will be provided 1 year warranty from Inter ASIA (sole local distributor), and free shipping nationwide.
I will do this MX Pink IC before we proceed to Filco White, and pre-order for KOBO series.
I will announce the price soon if it's doable. Thanks.

Cherry MX SILENT Pink Switch :
Cherry MX Silent Red is a linear switch without a click. It uses same specification as traditional Cherry MX Red switch.
You can type smoothly with the activation force of 45cN, very lightly.
This switch is officially named "Cherry MX Silent Red switch" however we, Diatec, internally refers it as "PINK switch" to distinguish from traditional Cherry MX Red switch.

Glorious MX Pink! I've written a review in GH
Link (there are in depth review of the switch, the sound, what I'm reviewing is based on the sound/feeling that I felt) -

Since I've heard of the 'MX Pinks' and reading the reviews here in GH, and knowing that they are pretty close to a Topre in terms of smoothness, I have to give them a try.
I won't go into details as to taking the switch out as OP had already had a much in depth review on them, I am just going into how I feel about the keyboard.
Now I have had numerous MX Reds in the past, of which I still own some of them today, some hidden away. Such as the Aorus K7, Ducky 9087g2 (At least that's the name I remember..), CM Rapid I, and so on. I have also owned KMAC2 with 62g vintage blacks, also some stock MX black keyboards, like Steelseries 6gv2, CM Trigger. Also currently have these tactile keyboards in stash - Cheats 62g MX Clear, CM Rapid I MX Brown, CM QFR MX Blue, Topre 87 modified with 45g alphas, and the rest 55g, oiled stabs. I have also owned several Filcos in the past (White casing, camo casing, black casing all browns unfortunately.)
Feeling wise - oh boy, MX reds were like typing on a cloud of boobs? These are like natural size D/E feeling (I know how they felt.. until she left me...), soft, smooth. I think that's enough of an example to understand how smooth these are. MX reds feels a little bit empty now comparing it to MX pink, as what I read in here, it is somewhat closer to what a Topre would feel, but without the tactile that Topre has. I loved gaming on MX reds, the Aorus K7 was my keyboard of choice for gaming for awhile since they've been given to me by the Gigabyte boys, so no doubt I would prefer these on gaming (have yet to try though), not to say that Topre's are bad for gaming, they are great as well.
I am currently waiting on my EnjoyPBT set to get to me, and then I'll compare these again. From the videos in this thread, the thick cherry keycaps seems to be very close to what I would want, so I'll just wait until the EnjoyPBT to arrive.
SIDENOTE - the keyboard feels a little bit sturdier + heavier for some reason, compare to other Filcos that I've had before. Not sure if they've changed OEM or something, but by looking at the pictures in this thread, it doesn't seem like it... if that's the case, seems like they've buffed it up a little bit. It just seems a little bit more solid now.
