Recommendations for pre-assembled keyboards for a small office (mander.xyz)

Hello everyone,

I am currently setting a small office (6-8 people) and I'd like to get some nice keyboards. However having that many people typing on a nice clickly keyboard will be a bit loud. And, while tempting, I don't have the time to assemble 8 keyboards myself. So I am asking you good folks for a recommendation on where I can purchase some pre-assembled keyboard with some quiet switches like https://divinikey.com/products/haimu-x-geon-hg-red-silent-linear-switches. The store would need to be able to ship to Europe at a reasonable price.

Thank you

I'm so happy that my coworkers have been very tolerant towards my Kinesis Advantage 2 with browns. Though I start a new job in a few months so there's a risk that they won't like it at the new office.. Now that I think about it, I'm not even sure my current employer will let me keep the keyboard despite it being bought specifically for me when I got a medical issue with my hand. They might claim it back just to have it sit collecting dust in storage out of spite.

Previously I've worked with a guy who had a keyboard with MX blues at the office but luckily I didn't sit in the same room as him. No idea how people around him put up with that.

You could hire a summer intern for €10/hour to build the keyboards for you :D Not sure if that's a widespread practice, but I think the companies here can get some kind of tax benefit if they provide summer jobs for teenagers.

I've done the intern thing before but I didn't think about it this time. I'm going to check on that.
