Hey Everyone,
BOB worked with someone named MEMEDA to create the CAD/3D Model for this keycap (and others). As part of their working arrangement, MEMEDA managed sales of the keycaps to some distributors. BOB sculpts one key, models it, and molds the rest.
BOB and MEMEDA broke up without a formal agreement covering design ownership. BOB feels like BOB owns it, MEMEDA feels like MEMEDA owns it, this is a conflict between BOB and MEMEDA.
As for these keycaps, they were made the same as every other BOB Yasha, then MEMEDA sold them to a distributor. For the distributor, this is business as usual, MEMEDA was always the point of contact for sales, so the distributor proceeds as normal, then sells them to DROP.
We have contracts with our distribution partners that require all sales of designer work to carry approval from the design owner. We’ve been working with this distributor for a long time, they get a lot of business from DROP, so our contract is very important to them and they operate within the terms.
In summary, MEMEDA sells the keys to the distributor, BOB doesn’t know MEMEDA is still selling the caps, the distributor doesn’t know that MEMEDA is selling the caps without BOB, so BOB sees the listing on DROP, accuses us of stealing/whatever. BOB has since removed those accusatory posts, having realized DROP did not steal anything.
As for these keycaps and BOB, we’re done for now. We’ll fulfill existing orders and send the rest back to the distributor.
WillI can understand why BOB might have made some of those claims given the radio silence, from what I understand. Its great that it was all a big misunderstanding. But I am not sure I would say they were out of line given the circumstances.
Maybe you guys should remove B.O.B from the product name to avoid confusion. It might be the same. But it isn't being sold with the consent of BOB or supporting them monetarily (assuming that you haven't been charitable and given them a cut).
Anyone else’s order been stuck in transit?? Mine’s been stuck in Edison, NJ since 8/21 so I’m just wondering if it’s a delay with just my order or if others are experiencing the same thing
I purchased this thinking it was made by B.O.B and now come to find out its not. I already got a shipping notice. How to I get a refund and send it back, or stop it from shipping. Emailing Drop is pretty pointless because there dont reply for days...
The description literally says "Made by hand by B.O.B. Handcraft...", Drop continues to drop the ball and completely suck at holding themselves accountable with proper communication to both vendors and buyers. Come on, do better. It's not that hard. Or at least accept responsibility - at the end of the day you're the ones selling it. You are not blameless.
