Dear Community, Firstly, I want to address the concerns raised following our recent insolvency filing. While every effort was made to avoid this step, it was necessary at this stage, and will allow us time to secure a suitable investor. This hasn’t been pleasant news to share with our community and our partners but we want and need to be as transparent as possible with the current situation. Therefore we’ll continue to keep you updated here. Corsair is still keen to acquire Endor AG, which shows the strength of our company despite the current challenges, and gives us confidence that there may ..read more

In recent weeks, we received anticipated cargo shipments in the EU that have enabled us to process a considerable number of outstanding orders. While we are delighted to be able to fulfill these orders, this has led to a temporary increase in our warehouse backlog, as orders are processed according to the 'first in, first out' principle. We are happy to say that the overall trend is positive, and we currently expect our turnaround time to return to normal within the next 7-10 business days. Please monitor your inbox for updates on tracking information. We would like to remind you that ..read more
