Dude that sux. Which one? I haven't been on WUS much in the last couple of months and haven't noticed any threads so I am out of the loop on this one.

If you made a donation, you find that the donation isn't enough to get you the watch, only a wrist band. My SO found that out the hard way.

I did Kickstarter for the Groove Belt (by Groove Life) and it worked out fine. I love the belt, definitely worth it from my end.

Chicken didn’t say anything about posting kickstarters here to fleece the OT

Yes. This has to be one of the biggest Kickstarter scams ever. Maybe 2% of the people got something and the ‘company’ walked away with 1.1 million of everyone’s money. Thieves.

I've never not received an item on KS that was fully funded on their goal.

It might take longer than expected... but it always came.

This includes a watch.

This seems to be overwhelmingly common. Over promised and under delivered. Assuming you get your watch at all, it won't be what was promised.

You just reminded me that I did indeed get hosed by a kickstarter. Started by a friend of mine, no less. Might have to call him out for it now.

I did an Idigogo and realized I misread my favorite feature. Canceled and it was refunded the next day.

I bought a couple Pebble watches on Kickstarter. Took over a year but they started the fund then made a production watch. Kept updates for the whole process.

I helped bring back Mystery Science Theater 3000 on Kickstarter. My name is in the credits. I have some sort of Crow desk toy and a Crow thumb drive with all 13 episodes unencrypted.

You're welcome.
