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

Yeah, I saw that. My brain keeps telling me Selectric though. I'll never know for sure - Mrs. Tipton^1^ (my typing teacher) retired the year after she taught me. I'm sure she's long dead by now.

Either way, they were cool and I loved typing on them.

^1^ I grew up in rural white Oklahoma. Mrs. Tipton was my first encounter with an old black lady. We loved her to death, because she took no shit. My favorite memory of her was when one of the kids was switching a typewriter on and off over and over again and she yelled out, "stop masturbating the typewriter!" Peak humor in the 1990s bible belt.
