Great little locally run business is offering a free first order of coffee beans for subscribers

Subscription starts from $22 per 250g, fortnightly or 4-weekly delivery. Cancel any time

Checked with the owner and he is happy for the ozbargain community to get on board, I know we all love a good coffee bean

Drop is a coffee subscription which delivers beans to your door fortnightly.

Each fortnight will be from a different specialty coffee roaster in Australia.

The goal is to support small roasters by connecting them directly with coffee drinkers through my subscription.

Next drop is this Monday and if you use code ‘DROP100’ at checkout before then, first order is absolutely free!

Free shipping always, cancel anytime.

Mod 25/1: The rep has not honoured the deal, see rep comment here. Cancellation emails have been sent now, see here. Moved to forums as an unobtainable deal.

Please do not post any personal information in the comments section. This includes addresses and real names.

    Should have honoured subs with normal quantities and not the people who got a small sub. I wonder if the people he emailed to had a big order. I just had 2kg and thought it’s reasonable, because that’s what we use in 1-2 months.

    Unfortantely I cannot accept the cancellation of the my order. I will require you to honor my order as I have a formal receipt from your business.
    I hope this can be settled reasonably.

    Please advise the next steps on this resolution.

    Thank you for alerting me "all your personal information will be deleted from the system for your security."
    Unfortunately by creating a chain email with all emails revealed, you have openly spread the emails of 100 Ozbargainers.
    "When you put an address in the “Bcc”(Blind Carbon Copy) field, no recipient of the message can see that address. The “Bcc” field is useful in different circumstances:"

    So first mistake, not adding any T&Cs or limitations to the coupon code. Like why not enforce a cap on it even if you didn't expect it to blow up? Worst case you can just create another one to meet the new demand, great way to drum up new business.

    Second mistake, cancelling all the orders with no prior communication on the deal or via email, and no attempt to offer a 'peace offering' or small discount.

    Then third mistake, revealing all the customer emails in a big chain.

    Damn, I'm no business owner but I reckon I can figure this stuff out pretty easily.

    Talk about starting a business on the wrong foot, honestly why bother if you haven't got the basics right. It will do more damage to your potential business than any good. People will lose trust and any confidence in your business.

      • Thrifty Dan on 26/01/2022 - 10:11

        Maybe it’s Jacob from his spare email? I said it and I will say it again, Timely and Barty did something similar too but they were cleverer. I had to send Barty several emails until they finally sent coffee and Timely just worked. I didn’t keep their subscriptions, because with Barty I wasn’t happy with their delivery practices and the coffee was average compared to my main supplier sicilia from Adelaide. Timely was reliable but didn’t like their coffee as much either. Regarding Drop Coffee, Jacob should have limited it to a 250g or 500g packet. There would have been enough people forgetting about their subscription and if his coffee is really good as praised on the website, people would have been happy to keep their subs anyway.

  • Clarky77 on 26/01/2022 - 10:08

    While I fully understand not being able to fulfill crazy orders it wouldn't have taken much to send everyone 250g sample at least those who signed up without taking advantage say sub 1kg orders esp considering the original post stated they were aware of the risk of being ozbargained and that they were ok with it, without that comment I wouldn't have bothered.
    But this email issue??? Seriously how stupid do you have to be in this day and age?

    • Thrifty Dan on 26/01/2022 - 10:14
