5501 Switches (808 style)

I’m looking for those button (5501M11) since quite a long time, and i know they are popular among midiboxers,

but, they are sooo expensive that i’m very hesitant to buy them.

Price is 4 Euro per switch (on mouser), and i need twenty -> 80Euro, only for switches is quite a big budget !

So my question is : does anyone knows some “cheap” alternatives for a similar button ?

Thanks !!

I was going to use these for my project

only 20 Euro for 20

They are of course not E-Switch, but for the 1/4 of the price maybe they will do the job
