There are some amazing innovations on Kickstarter. I've backed and received 4/6 projects.But you DO have to watch out. There are no guarantees. It's not like online shopping. Every now and again, there's either a full-on scam campaign that takes the money and runs. Or there's a campaign where I truly believe the creator's heart was in the right place, but due to their ambition and lack of experience, they aren't able to deliver on the promise. I've had 2 projects drop out from underneath me. One was ~$50 so I wasn't too worried, but the other was a big chunk. I wish there were more guarantees and protections for the backers that make this platform possible. Maybe worth exploring other similar platforms for one that is more backer-focused?
