I’ve only ever backed one project on Kickstarter, and so far I’ve never seen the product and just keep getting updates claiming that things are going well, oops no there’s a problem with X… Ok we’re back on track… Nope now there’s problems with Y.
So I backed the ZNAPS project in July 2015 and the initial statement made was that a product would be delivered by December (2015) so here we are now August 2016 and still nothing has even been confirmed as being complete and ready to ship. Ok so this isn’t an issue with Kickstarter, because they are just a means of advertising your product and gaining funds (they take a percentage) so the problem solely lies with the people who are ZNAPS. If you read through the comments on Kickstarter you’ll see comments after comment all stating their dissatisfaction with the way the whole thing has unfolded.
