To be honest, at this point, i am confused to what people are expecting. Like you said, it's dead and buried.


Now to others...if you receive something, good; if you like them, keep them; if you don't like them, sell them; if you don't like and can't sell pass them as a present, most people would be happy with cool looking iems. I think it's absurd people are still feeling so riled up at this point, it's just mind blowing to me since i know how KS works and how this type of policies can really turn back and bite you in the ass.

Stop your b****ing, if you were a Vabo support than you would feel really screwed. A product that never got delivered, they sold a bunch and they are selling the product in airports and throught the net and the backers got 0. It's not that i don't understand how you feel and you have all right to be upset but are you seriously going to whine after all these years?! I hope to heavens you have more important things to focus on in your life.

Freaking move on.

What's this... Vabo you speak of?

What's this... Vabo you speak of?

Typo, it's Vago and it was one of the worst KS situations. They actually got the money, did a product THAT WORKS (unlike many others) and decided to sell it on online stores. So... they didn't just profit from the KS, they are still profiting from the online stores and airport stores.

Wait, what? Those of us who bought through their site shouldn't feel screwed over because some random Kickstarter scam happened once upon a time? The frustration here is because there is no recourse and nobody to hold accountable. Bob and Joe walk away with a clear name and we still have fools defending Bob even though there are plenty of signs pointing to this having been planned...

Being "screwed" is not something that is going to change today, tomorrow or in 5 years. You were screwed yes, get over it, NOTHING is going to change that fact. I seriously wonder what kind of lives people have to still be focusing so much on this situation, considering that are people that seem to post something almost everyday, if not...
All that anger and disappointment will result in ZERO changes. They won't be hold accountable, in any way, shape or form, and instead you are still finding ways to be angry about it.
Like i said, i've been in worse situations and there's a time when one just has to MOVE ON.
It was fine being curious and watching this thread every month or so, just to see if people were still receiving things, but this is now just plain ridiculous and a waste of life.


I won't follow this anymore but i do wish you all the best.

Now that's just an unfair insult. @Walderstorn has seemed to be a much more upstanding person than the disaster that is TAE. Besides, they've got a point: stay hung up on this or move on. When time = money, is it really worth the time?

The economics are simple: the money's gone, the people are gone and the feds aren't gonna help. Feel free to hold the grudge for the next two decades, but realize that you're not going to get any justice out of this situation. The world sucks sometimes and there are a lotta bad eggs in the basket. All of that adds up to mean that if you're wasting effort hating everything here, you're wasting time when you could either be making back the money you lost or enjoying your time elsewhere.

If you get burned by the campfire, you don't spend the rest of your life hating that campfire; you heal up, accept it was one of life's crappier moments, and move on with your life.

Sorry @Walderstorn ! i was trolling! I hope we are still Head Fi friends?!!

No, we must hate everyone......everyone is an enemy........

So I was going through my Emails today, searching for an old email. Instead I found an Email I received from Jake in 2016. He was assuring me that my deltas will be shipped next week. Guaranteed.
Regarding the current state of trinity that is just hilarious. At least I received my deltas now, 2 years later and in a hunter shell.

That's going to be there new flagship IEM:

Trinty Audio Guaranteed

Never again!!! There are insults and there are hurtful insults.


Thumbs up @Midgetguy.

I wonder if anyone, after this, has been a backer (at KS or not) of headphones/earphones.

 

[Cloudtastrophe]

[Cloudtastrophe]

I'll do it again, but the way I've been doing KS campaigns of any sort is that I start by assuming I'll either get a super late product or not a product at all. Second criteria is it has to be desirable or very interesting. Basically, my interest plus gambling . Joining a KS campaign is the equivalent of walking into a casino; accept that you'll never see that money again, but you might have a shot at getting something.

Very big truth in what u say. I have done one after TA, which is the Wooting Keyboard and it was my last, until now, at least. It's an amazing keyboard and i have several mechanics but i am glad i decided to try this one.


Now for another "KS situation":

I bought a wallet in KS that was funded maybe 2 y or something. It started to fall apart 3 months ago, i tried to contact the seller, got no answer. Searching for something similar i went to Amazon and i found the same EXACT wallet (brand and everything) for a lower price than the one i payed as a 1st tier backer, go figure...
