Massdrop deals
Re: Massdrop deals
Thorien, did you receive an email from Massdrop canceling your order? How late did you join?
Re: Massdrop deals
Hi daar3n
I got an email saying basically what it does on the discussion page of the drop that some people wont receive the plain and serrated versions as there has been a mistake in numbers. I did join somewhere near the end maybe 180 ish out of 200? Can't recall exactly tbh.
I presume they have sent these emails to those of us effected, that's all I know atm.

Re: Massdrop deals
An update, apparently those who are effected will hear by email later today. Will keep my fingers crossed. :)
Re: Massdrop deals
Got the dreaded email, been given these choices:
1) Ship a similar knife from Spyderco. As each of these options were slightly cheaper, we would ship this knife with a $10 Massdrop credit. Similar knives that are available:
a. Spyderco Pacific Salt Yellow FRN ~ C91YL
b. Spyderco Ladybug 3 Hawkbill Salt ~ LYL3HB
2) Process a full refund and cancellation
What would you guys do?

Re: Massdrop deals
Got the same email. This is the second failed massdrop I have purchased in the last 2 months. 50% of my transactions there have failed. Disappointed and frustrated. I told them to cancel and refund immediately.
Going back to Caly.
Re: Massdrop deals
It was my first purchase from Massdrop so not impressed to be honest. I think I may go for the yellow Hawkbill LB3 but I really wanted the green and black. May just cancel actually. :mad:

Yes, that is quite the disappointment.
I already have, and thoroughly enjoy, the "Ladyhawk", Ladybug Hawkbill. It is a great knife, but only available in SE. I do recommend getting yourself one, but not sure if I'd get one through Massdrop.
I wanted this USN for the PE, just for variety. I already know the SE is probably superior to the PE in H1, but just wanted the variety and jumped on the buy when I saw it.
It's confusing in their email that they don't mention pricing for the alternative options they present you with.
Going back to Caly.
Re: Massdrop deals
Did you join the drop quite late or at the start?
Just wondering if they sent the same email to absolutely everyone in the drop or just those who joined at the end?

I'm not sure how you tell if I was early or late? I just clicked "join", and chose the Plain Edge, then paid.

Re: Massdrop deals
How much were they selling for? I already have a handful just curious what the price point was compared to the original release.
Happy to be part of this great forum and group of down to earth spyderco addicts, Thanks Sal and gang.

I hope listing sale prices doesn't violate a forum rule here...
But they were for-tee ate and change.

Nope, that's one of the great things about this place, no supermods to remind you of every little infraction. You can list vendors, prices etc. Just no B/S/T which is fine I guess.SpeedHoles wrote:farnorthdan wrote:How much were they selling for?

Would have been great if they hadn't mucked it all up! I've cancelled now and asked for a full refund.farnorthdan wrote:

Re: Massdrop deals
You know, I've been seeing a few of these on the bay lately, not sure if they ship your way but might be worth checking out.Thorien wrote:Would have been great if they hadn't mucked it all up! I've cancelled now and asked for a full refund.farnorthdan wrote:

Re: Massdrop deals
Unfortunately they don't ship to the UK.
Ah well, c'est la vie! I won't let the buggers get me down.

Re: Massdrop deals
Man, just got the email also. I was in on 2/27 and had ordered a se to go with my pe. Not thrilled about it, so I am just going the refund route.

Dang that looks pretty nice! Not sure I like the finger choil on this model though. Still very tempting.xceptnl wrote:Who has one of the Ferrum Forge / WE Knives Massdrop Falcon models? I am interested in buying one, but I want feedback.
