Comment on Drop, formerly Massdrop, ends most collaborations and rebrands under Corsairparent

Comments

Agreed. As someone who spent thousands of dollars at early Massdrop, when they switched to 'basically just a store' + their branded products the goods weren't as appealing and I eventually just stopped visiting. And that makes sense if you think about it: if a group buy gets fully funded people obviously want it.

They ended up having a lot of non-group buy things like extremely esoteric keycaps probably only a couple dozen people on earth are willing to spend money on.

The business of demand aggregation has been replaced by Temu, where the consumer data is worth more than the average item.
