What We Do Here
We organize group buys and then we suggest them to massdrop.com, where they are finalized and posted. We also discuss the development and evolution of the site and this subreddit, as well as any other issues pertaining to Massdrop. Originally, most of our members came from r/buildapc and related subreddits, but we have expanded far beyond PC parts. All people from all countries are welcome to participate, though there are additional shipping costs to countries other than the US. Sorry :(
Number of Successful Drops: too many to count :)
Currently on Massdrop and organized by you:
Frequently Asked Questions
Q) Do I have to make an account on massdrop?
A) Fortunately/unfortunately, yes. By making all of its users sign up, Massdrop can legally be classified as something other than a retailer, meaning that the manufacturers have no say in how Massdrop prices the items. This allows the site to sell things at a lower price (-15% for 20% fewer people on the Bitfenix alchemy cables)
Q) Do you know what the price(s) will be?
A) No. We don't have anything to do with money. We will all find out at the same time when massdrop posts the buys.
Q) Do I need to do anything on reddit to be a part of a group buy?
A) Nope. Just buy it once it gets posted on massdrop. However, expressing interest will help get products moving faster.
Q) What should I do if I want to organize a drop?
A) Read the sidebar. Next, either suggest the product here on the subreddit, or first create a poll on massdrop and submit the link to the poll here. Both work.
Upcoming Massdrops
Post titles should be relevant to the subject of group buying and contain the item suggested and a link to it on Massdrop if it's already been submitted to their site.
