If it's truly a donation, why would they be obligated to refund your dumb arse?
The company calls it a "donation." This is their term. I have no problem "donating" providing I received the product I purchased.
I fulfilled my obligation. I paid for the merchandise and paid my credit card provider upon receipt of my CC statement. Unfortunately, they haven't which is why I posed the question if I am being "unreasonable" in terms of estimated delivery date.
Now go back behind the keyboard and use "big and bad" words like dumb arse in another thread.

And THIS is exactly why I despise Kickstarter and other such vehicles.
There was a time and day when true entrepreneurs birthed an idea, mortgaged their souls to build a company and then brought a product to market for sale. That is the spirit that made America great.
Now every asshat with an "idea" runs out and begs for donations to make their idea into a product.
The danger to the consumer is exactly what you are seeing here. An idea, no matter how good, doesn't make a marketable product and you really have no idea of the business acumen of the person to whom you are donating. It sounds a lot like they wont' refund your money because they probably don't have it. Dollars to donuts they have blown it on salaries, a nice office or unanticipated manufacturing costs.
