Urgghhh! 14 days before Kickstarter releases the funding to Flare.

Qu'est-ce que c'est que ça?

Pourquoi would have been sufficient.

#183 for me. Super excited, I can't wait to hear both the R2A and R2Pro! Very timely as I lost my pair of Westone 4 last month and had been looking at replacements. I hope they match up as I absolutely loved my Westone 4

Why do they have to wait till the funds are released to send them? Can backers cancel in the interim?

KS gives 7 days to backers to resolve problem with the credit card's charge if they have any. I guess the other 7 days are for buffer or something.
 
By the way, they've sent the survey for shipping address, be sure to fill it.

I'm sure Amazon/Kickstarter would be very capable of transferring the money that has been collected into Flare Audio's account by the end of this day and keep doing so in the days after. But they won't.......
 
14 days x $$$ = cash flow + interest = Profit
 
Kickstarter fees + (Profit per campaign x successful funded campaign) = business model Kickstarter and interest Amazon

#803. waaaaaaaaaayyyyyy behind ya!
 
Guess I've got a June 30th minute to midnight delivery...

Not all of the reward packages will ship in June. I think the R2S and some of the more expensive packages are touted for July?

I am guessing I will get my R2As by last week of June, since I am in London so easy enough delivery.

No you won't.......

 

 Creator Flare Audio 4 days ago @ Tamal:
Hi Tamal, thank you, we are nearly there!
Yes production has started and all June rewards will be delivered in June. We found out half way through our campaign from backers that Kickstarter take 2 weeks to release funds to us so we will be shipping June's rewards as soon as we can once funds are in.
This campaign has been great and we can see how excited everyone is to hear the sound. We will make sure we deliver on or before expectations and all in one monthly batch so that everyone gets their rewards at the same time (courier dependant of course).
Kind Regards,
Davies

Delivery on/before due date is quite an achievement by itself for an 'average' Kickstarter project, although the R2's are already in production as we speak

Reading all these triple digit numbers makes me blush with #1191

Couple more weeks is nothing.

I feel like a kid in a sweet shop where I can't reach up to the counter and get to all that sugary goodness...
 
A little help please!
