I’ve got a bad feeling about this.
Ditto.
massdrop has been turning to garbage since they got in bed with amazon.
Yeah I don’t see this as a huge loss, and honestly it could be worse. Corsair might not ruin them, let’s watch and see 🤷
They went downhill for me when they started doing their own products. While I’m sure it was better for them to focus I found the site more useful when it had more variety than just keyboards and headphones.
Corsair intends to keep Drop as a separate brand within the company
I’ll give that about 6 months before they “have to merge” and the layoffs begin.
Drop has kinda gone to shit anyways. Though I have gotten some good headphones off them. But I ordered a set of wood IEM’s back in January. Got and update like a month later that the supply chain got messed up, will ship in June. Current order status is “Reserved for shipment. Estimated ship date: July 10”. So like a week ago. And all the emails from them lately have been
“Check out these amazing keycaps!11!1!”
“Hey look, we got more keycaps!!!”
“Limited time only super-special keycaps!”
“Hey, you looking for some keycaps?!”
It’s not what it used to be, just like everything else on the internet.
Line goes up kills another one.
RIP Drop. I do not have a good feeling about this acquisition. Same thing with Logitech 86ing the Blue brand name.
Doesn’t really seem like Corsair’s market - absurdly bespoke stuff.
