Personally, I think all these recent drops have been awesome and would grab em all if I could but moneys been a been factor for me. Had money been no issue I probably would’ve grabbed two Liliths and one of each of those relics lol

Right on fellas! Half of me didn’t want to say anything cuz personally it is kind of cool not having to compete with so many people for a drop like this, we all know the instances of a certain drops selling out in seconds leaving many unlucky and disappointed. So that’s aspects is nice, however, a Lilith is a Lilith. Which IMO definitely should qualify as one of the “sell out in minutes” type of drop, and watching all these recent drops just sit there still in stock has been hard to watch and seeing the Lilith still there today was just too much. So im genuinely curious as to the causes and wondering if it can just be chalked up to bad economy and it’s tuff all over type of thing, or if many people already own these models in another colorway and simply don’t have the extra cash to grab another in a new color, or people just not thinking these drops are that cool, or maybe not sold on the model itself? Maybe some combination of these….has this been on anyone else’s mind or do I just have too much time on my hands and overthinking it per usual…. Lol

Market is just pretty saturated with Wizards right now. I like how One Drop makes enough to go around.

I really can’t. It’s just absolutely hilarious to me that myself and others have pointed out time and time again that One Drop has alienated their original customer base, and the more… out of touch… people on the forum (putting it politely) were always “bUt OD iS sTilL mOrE sUcCesSfuL tHaN eVeR so HA”

And now when there’s hard evidence that even their super limited drops sit in stock unsold, people are like “wHy Is tHiS hApPeNiNg” like OD hasn’t regurgitated the same throws to the point where it’s comical, and are probably more out of touch with the community than any other company at this point.

There’s your actual reason @Yoyomikie. Some people aren’t a fan of the truth, as sad as it is to say. And this is coming from probably one of the biggest former OD fans out there. :man_shrugging:

I read this thread because I like to look at One-Drop’s latest Cerakoted yoyos, they are cool.
This arguing, not so much.

I hope to see some of these new Liliths here, the color is remarkable!

Cerakote is cool as hell, Wizard is a super fun yoyo. OD gets a big fat W in my book for this one.

Since you just can’t seem to help yourself I wont hold back either. This OD bashing has got to stop. You’ve made your point more than clear at this point. Why is it so hard for you to just continue scrolling past these threads? It’s honestly not funny and regardless of how delusional you are you do not speak for the entire OG OD community. I don’t care how long you’ve been around. You keep stating your opinion as though it’s absolute fact. Your “truth” is simply that. Calling people who disagree with you wrong and out of touch is what I find comical about your approach. I legit can’t tell if sometimes you are just trolling. Just move on though dude, seriously.

So I take it you won’t be copping a Lilith then? I actually get where ur coming from and I can empathize and even appreciate ur point of view of the matter, even if I don’t share the same opinion. But my original question was just a genuine curious thought that I decided to share. I don’t see why you had to mock my question the way u did. I don’t that was very polite. I’ve never shown u any disrespect.

I don’t think it is actually a problem if stock doesn’t sell out instantly.

I’m glad that the Cerakote ODs have an audience, but I still prefer plain anodized and I was glad to be able get a clear Wizard. That was my fist choice from the start (but it wasn’t available).

I also think it is a good thing that people who missed earlier drops have the option to buy without competing for a rare premium finish (and through the multiple outlets where they are now showing up).

I think it’s to be expected considering they’ve likely already sold hundreds of Wizards.
