Update 2023-01-17: The warehouse made some significant progress over the weekend. Nearly every order for in-stock products has been processed through the warehouse system, and should have notified to your email that it is on its way. Many orders have departed the warehouse while others are waiting for courier pickup.
Some orders were waiting for an inbound delivery to the warehouse (the item would not have been listed as in-stock when you purchased, but had an estimated shipping date that has now been delayed). These items were unable to be receipted into the warehouse due to the systems outage; with warehouse operations picking back up, this process is able to begin again. For anyone waiting for these items, we expect them to be brought into inventory this week, then shipped shortly after.
This covers the vast majority of outstanding/delayed orders. If you feel that your order's status is not addressed in this update, please reach out to the CS team to take a closer look at the...

Let’s talk about International E-Commerce Shipping!
There’s a common misconception that International shipping at Drop is “slow and awful”. We want to take a moment to provide some details (and data!) about how International E-commerce shipping works, and what the experience looks like from end to end.
Expectations
When people think about courier services delivering packages, they typically think of a Fedex (or UPS, or DHL) truck picking up the box, putting it on a Fedex truck, flying to another country, putting it on another Fedex truck, and then finally delivering it to your doorstep. This is known as end-to-end delivery, and it’s an amazing and incredible service that is extremely expensive.
For example, a 20x30x15cm box that weighs 1.5 kg (this is the typical metric dimensions of a headphone or keyboard shipment) going from NY, USA to London, UK costs $240 for 5-day end-to-end service via Fedex. That is the retail rate charged to a customer that walks into a Fedex depot. For large businesses that ship a lot, you can...
Has anyone else been affected by awful shipping experiences?
I ordered a pair of Meze 99 Noirs the day after Christmas and have only been met with shipping delays and have been completely left in the dark by customer service. I was told there was a warehouse issue and was wondering if anyone else has had similar experiences lately.
Ho Ho Ho…

We’re almost ready to wrap up 2022, which also happened to be our 10 year anniversary. To commemorate the amazing 10 years, we wanted to hold one more event to share the Top 10 products of 2022. Follow our emails (and socials) going out every afternoon this week to see the Top 10 products of 2022. And while we are celebrating, we’re running one last sale for 2022—savings of up to 60%.
Top 10 of 2022:
10. Drop + The Lord of The Rings The One Ring Artisan keycap

Order issues
Hello, I ordered a pack of switches almost 2 weeks ago. I never got a confirmation email for my transaction. I hadn’t ordered under an account due to me not having one. Is there any way I can get this fixed or check on the order? Please and thank you in advance for any help!
I don’t need to see the same items listed 3 times. I am capable of using a drop down menu. Why are there 127 duplicate listings on my shop page. They make the page extremely cluttered and tedious to scroll through. Does anyone actually want this?
I just want to know how the shipping fee works, because it is surprisingly low when I select Philippines in the Country. Can I actually use my specific address without any additional charges?
How do you get a refund on an undelivered item? I have an item which hasn't been delivered. I've spoken to the courier and they've asked for the seller to open a ticket so they can investigate the parcel. Drop aren't responding to emails regarding this request at all, so I think it's just best to get a complete refund for this item and abandon purchasing from here ever again
While we have Drop community members across the world, I am choosing the American holiday of Thanksgiving as a moment to share some gratitude for all of your support, engagement, and insight this year.
One of my biggest reasons for joining the company a little over a year ago was Drop’s historical community-driven approach to what we design, make and curate for you—either by ourselves, with community designers, or in collaboration with some of the best brands in the world. But, even then, I did not fully appreciate how valuable an engaged, knowledgeable community can be.
We’ve brought you a pretty steady stream of product launches this year: Holy Panda X Switches; a whole new premium keycap profile in DCX and more than ten colorways launched in just a few months; some beautiful keycap and keyboard designs done with community artists; our take on gasket-mount 75% keyboards with the SENSE75; more features and value for Drop Keyboard Club members; plus, a series of collaborations...
