I'm thinking they accidentally listed the gold nib version for the steel nib price and then instead of owning up to their mistake they just cancelled the Drop and are trying to hide it. Pretty shitty if you ask me.

Yep, mine was cancelled too. Same explanation 'didnt reach minimums' even though I know I saw the site showed that there were 40 some others who joined the drop.

I was checking this drop frequently. When I put my order, they had 17 already joined. Last time I checked, they had 42. Hence, that minimum quota was far met. I don’t think the person answering customer service is actually checking all the facts; it looks more like transcribing a script. In my answer there was no allusion to cancelling the drop. I still have this drop’s pending charge on PayPal. If the drop was cancelled, shouldn’t they have immediately notify the customers by e-mail and cancelled the pending charges as well? In the help pages they point out the supplier not meeting quality standards as a possible reason to a cancellation... I also thought about several possible mistakes such as passing the outstanding orders to cancelled by error, or mislabeling the drop as “sold through” instead of “cancelled”. The only official notification I got was confirming the order. At this point I just want to know if they will process the drop by March 22 (I think that was the availability date) or if I can dispose of the money I separated for this drop.
