Hey Guys,
We spoke to the vendor earlier today and have some unfavorable news for the group. The vendor has notified us that they will be unable to ship the 4in variant of the scissors. This is due to the limited nature of this product and widespread availability issues. At this time we have received the remaining parts of the bundle and are ready to ship to you guys.
We are offering the following options for those involved in this drop.
1) Contact us at support@massdrop.com and we will cancel your order and issue a full refund immediately.
2) Contact support@massdrop.com and accept the bundle without the 4in scissors and we will refund your purchase price by $36. These will ship early next week.
We understand this isn't the ideal solution and we are disappointed that the group wasn't able to get its full order. Drops on Massdrop are very rarely unfulfilled and we hope you judge us not only on how smoothly most drops are run, but also how we react when issues do come up.
Thanks for your patience.
HassanSWell, that's a bummer, huh?
For me, I'm still thrilled to get the 8" and 5" ones... the 5" happens to be a very nice size for lots of machine-side tasks.
Thanks for handling this like you did. I'm happy to take the $36 refund and still enjoy the other two pairs.
NikknackThe downer to this drop was knowing that it was a pre-order that wouldn't be shipped out for at least two months.
Maybe once these are released, we could do another quickie drop for these... (hint hint, Massdrop!) :)
I probably would buy another set. I just didn't want to buy two with such a long wait.
Hey Guys,
Per the drop page this is a pre-order that is not going to be shipped until late September. We will stay in contact with the vendor and update the group with any new developments.
Thanks for your patience and expect an update from us on 9/5 or sooner if something comes up.
Hey everyone,
We’ve submitted our order for Gingher Eve 2014 Scissors Set shortly after the drop ended.
Now that the order has been placed, our vendor is preparing it for shipment. In the meantime, we will also be getting our warehouse ready to handle the reshipment of the product to everyone as soon as it arrives.
Expect an update on Friday or sooner if something comes up.
Cheers!
Yeah!!! So happy to see the lowest price unlocked!! This is an amazing deal!!! Glad I read RipStitcher's Bionic Gear Bag newsletter and it led me here. I''ll be back checking for new drops on a regular basis! ;-)
They would be a gift that would last a lifetime. She's lucky to have a Grandma to sew with.
My grammies and mom taught me lots of crafts and sewing. Such great memories! :-)
Hey MassDrop.....
Stoooopid question, here.... :) ....
But right now, at the time I'm writing this, we have 7 sales and 11 committed towards the 20 needed for the lowest price.
So does that mean we are short 2 buyers? or 9? (The little status progress bar going across the bottom doesn't quite tell the story - to me, anyway!)
Thanks!
Yay!!! The drop got started! I'm so excited about getting another set of these.
This particular set of scissors fit exceptionally well in the Bionic Gear Bag (see bionicgearbag.com) ... and as soon as this set arrives, I'm going to make one out of fabrics to match this.
My favorite scissors in this set is the 5" shear... it's a perfect size to have next to my machine for snipping curves, zipper ends, and tails. Love it!
Thanks, Massdrop, for putting this one together. $90 for all three is a killer price!
