Shipping Status Update (January 2023)

Jan 5, 20234326 VIEWS

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 specifics. I also want to extend a massive thank you to everyone for your patience throughout this entire process - I know it is not an easy thing to deal with as a customer, especially when we don't have the most clear path to resolution.

Update 2023-01-13: The slightly-larger test batch of orders sent to the warehouse has begun processing/shipping. We are receiving regular updates and will continue to post here with additional updates as things progress. When your order is processed and shipped, you will receive a shipping notification to the email address associated with your account.

Update 2023-01-12: The warehouse has established a temporary secondary instance of their systems, and we have sent them a preliminary test batch of orders to verify functionality. Initial indications are positive; we will continue to test in increasing-size batches over the next few days. We are hopeful that this is the light at the end of the tunnel. Stay tuned for continued updates.

Update 2023-01-09: Orders which were previously submitted to the warehouse ("locked in" and therefore unable to cancel) have been released from the warehouse and are now able to be canceled. If you are unable to manually cancel the order through your Transactions page, please submit a CS ticket to request cancelation of your order and they will get it taken care of.

Hey everyone, you've likely seen some chatter or experienced the effects of increased shipping times/estimates for our products across the board. Our warehouse partner is experiencing a longer-than-anticipated system outage, which unfortunately means many orders were not delivered by the initial estimated ship date. Additionally, we are having to adjust forward-looking estimated ship dates accordingly. We are sincerely sorry for this, especially at this time of year. We're working diligently with our partner to understand and resolve the issue or find workarounds to get items shipped. To help expedite orders where we can, we are making shipment arrangements through another partner warehouse. The setup there does not fully support our typical shipping process, so customers may receive multiple shipments but at no extra shipping cost to the recipient. Due to the high volume of orders, to the best of our understanding, we expect our partner to finish shipping all orders in the next few weeks. The current most accurate estimated shipping date is shown on the product detail page. We apologize for any inconvenience this may have caused anyone. Rest assured, we have not forgotten about any and all existing orders and our teams are doing everything possible to expedite the process. As usual, anyone currently waiting for a shipment may review their order at any time by going to your transactions page here: https://drop.com/transactions Please feel free to reach out if you have any additional questions.

Couse I did not received any replay from CS: JVC HA-FW01 Wood Series IEMs; Order placed on January 13th and still not shipped. The first shipping date was supposed to be February 15th, then February 24th and now there is a silence. No changes to the order status. What is the current status?

Idk what the heck type outage occurred but I'm hoping it's on the magnitude of your warehouse burned down or something. Per the Jan. 17th update, y'all supposedly made significant progress on processing and shipping products. Ok, buddy. Reached out to the CS team per the post's recommendation and they referenced me back to this update, which I clearly said I already read. Then they said it'll be weeks before they ship all remaining products. What happened to the significant progress yall supposedly made? Then they said not to worry as my item was packed and basically on its way. That was 6 days ago. Trying to figure out who lied or who isn't doing their job. Or maybe everyone at drop is pulling shit out of their ass?

KialikIt's about to be a month since my order and my mystery keycap set still has not shipped. I reached out to customer service once again and not only did they provide me with no new information, but they actually just copy and pasted from their previous response! Now I look on the drop community page to see that you're offering free shipping for all new orders? What about your patrons who have already spent the money and time waiting for you to clean up your mess?

I’m glad you guys shipped my order but the least you could have done is put all the orders on the fast shipping instead of using the slowest possible option…

I received a tracking number but UPS still has not received the package from you guys and Aftership says the package was supposed to get here yesterday. When is my package actually going to ship instead of being marked as "shipped"?

kouki.monsterNo. A warehouse that handles Drop’s orders (and probably others), which relied on computers to take receipt of all shipping crates, inventory where and how much of each product was there as “in stock” or “accounted for by someone’s order,” and match up Drop’s order and shipping distribution data with pieces of that inventory… those computers went offline in such a way that they had to manually rebuild their inventory database and catalog everything again. This probably affected other companies besides Drop as well.

It seems kind of crazy to me that I never had any info on this outage before I purchased this for a birthday gift. No where did it tell me I could be looking at extremely late shipping times or that there is a “test batch” that my item may or may not be apart of. Or the fact that my item isn’t even in stock it’s just “capable of being ordered” (even though it’s technically not because of the outage) And even now I haven’t gotten any emails with updates on the situation, rather I’ve gotten emails about keyboards I could purchase during a system wide shutdown for sending products out. I respect the company as a whole but I am extremely disappointed by this experience.

Finally, my order status is updated: Reserved for shipment. Does it mean that my order is going to be shipped soon?

NoburtMOther than a cheeky post on this thread, I haven't been in touch with anyone. I figured it would be random/in chronological order as to who gets their orders shipped.

I ask this in all seriousness - how hard is it to email everyone impacted? I’ve been ordering with Drop for more than a couple of years now and if there is one complaint that has been consistent through the years it’s the lack of transparency and communication. Why, when the issue was discovered, weren’t there mass emails out to everyone that placed orders? Why isn’t there a banner on the front page linking to updates on the issue? Why do I have to email customer support two days after my order was supposed to ship just to be redirected to a hub community post buried in the site? Why does my order still say it’s shipping on the 11th when on the pages for the items I ordered they have a ship date of the 27th? I understand that things happen out of anyone’s control and it sucks for everyone involved, Drop and its customers. But the things that ARE within your control - when things are communicated and making sure everyone is updated with the latest information through every channel available - Drop has shown pretty consistently that they have no interest in making changes or doing better.

ninjatunedI’m weirded out by this, personally. I’m actually ok with the situation as long as I eventually get my stuff because s*** happens, but it seems like low hanging fruit that could have gotten the customer base to side with Drop was just ignored mostly. that said,I just got a shipping notice finally!

ninjatuned

Jan 16, 2023

MorbiiI agree. It doesn’t matter much to me beyond a minor inconvenience but I definitely feel for the people that placed orders expecting them in for Christmas presents. I would be pretty livid if I was in that boat. I am asking my questions because to me there’s a pattern here of Drop having a delayed shipping situation and not keeping everyone updated to the best of their ability. They need to be held accountable.

My order still says “order placed with vendor”. Estimated shipping date still says December 30th, what does this mean for my order?

NoburtM

Jan 14, 2023

DspergCheck the item page. I know I have an AMP/DAC combo I ordered, and it was supposed to ship out on the 21st, and that's all it says. I checked the page of the item, and it says Feb. 6th. You do have to scroll down about half way down the page to find it. Or just use the find feature.

Drop rainy75 Shipping to Australia

I have filled out the payment and contact form for the WOBKEY Rainy75 Mechanical Keyboard and typed in my correct address but when click "continue to shipping", it comes up with "Your order cannot be shipped to the selected address. Review your address to ensure it's correct and try again, or select a different address." If anyone knows whether it can be shipped to Australia or how to solve this issue, it would be greatly appreciated.

Work around for firmware/configuration update error "command not recognized"

I spent more than an hour attempting to update my Drop Shift keyboard. I'm not sure what has changed, but I was not able to do it entirely from the Drop website as I had previously done. I have most of the keys configured how I would like, but the default LED function was a very bright, distracting, rainbow wave going across the keyboard. Every time I turned the computer on I had to manually adjust the lights how I liked. Using the online version or the locally installed app, you first have to install the QMK XAP interface. You then have to flash your already configured firmware file, which can be done on the Drop website. If you are logged in your last configuration is saved under your account and you can alter what you like, so you don't have to start from scratch. So, following the instructions I selected the appropriate board, entered bootloader mode, but when attempting to flash the file, I would get an error that the C:/Users/Mike C..... command is not recognized...
