AliExpress Store example
If you decide to renew the switches on your A1000 keyboard: Do not, I repeat DO NOT swap the one for the return key. The new ones are a bit different as their springs are firmer 2/3 of the way, but weaker at the bottom 1/3. The return key, which is also carried by a white pseudo switch for stabilization, is too heavy for the new switch to lift when completely pressed. It simply won't come up.
I did a complete swap on two keyboards, and while feeling really good, the firmer springs make it a tad... different.
PS: Just saw that the prices are insane. I didn't buy mine there, the ali store is only an example.
