[sdiy] DSP MIDI Synth (was Re: 566 Functional Replacement)

[Ben Stuyts]

No, that particular campaign has ‘flexible funding’ which basically means that any pledges go to the project’s creator even when the goal is not met. And as it’s a pledge, not a sale, there is not much chance of getting your money back.

In general, IndieGoGo + flexible funding = No go. It’s where the dodgy projects live.

Glancing at that page, it looks like the $5,000 goal was not met, so you should contact IndieGoGo about getting your money back, not Jan. Maybe I’m missing something obvious.

Funded it, got nothing back in return, and *ZERO* communication despite multiple attempts.  I think he should get his online manners sorted out before he gets any more money thrown his way, personally - at least communicate about what happened.  I would've loved a G1.
