theres a kickstarter i backed back in march 2021 thats been going through issue after issue during the production process but has been keeping backers updated the whole time and a couple months ago they announced they were finally able to start shipping orders im excited

#had it been a scam it wouldve been fine bc as soon as i give money to things like that i just consider it gone forever so i take the #possibility of that happening into account when deciding whether or not to buy something and when i backed it $115 was Not Hard At All #that was like. two days' worth of tips at most? three if you picked really slow days?#so as far as im concerned i dont have $115 worth of money up in the air right now waiting for repayment #i simply donated $115 to a cool project almost three years ago and now will get a time capsule of a present in the mail at some point #BUT all that being said i dont think its a scam shes been very transparent and accommodating the whole time #like i couldve gotten most of my order by now if i wanted‚ there were wallets that came with the bag and they were the main problem point #bc the manufacturer she used first was Garbage but she wasnt able to get a refund from them #so she offered to ship out everything except the wallets to anyone who wanted it they just had to cover the shipping #n i was like. i dont /need/ any of this it was 100% a fun little treat for me so it being late isnt like. a problem #so might as well save like $20 its win win #and a bunch of people did take her up on it and have been posting abt the quality and they all seem legit #its very funny that ive had to update my address with her twice though KSBDKSBDKDN #and the extra benefit is it really will be a little time capsule present because its been so long ive forgotten most of what i ordered #like i know theres a bag and a wallet and some pins and i think one other thing?#but i dont remember the details of what they look like really or esp the pins i dont remember anything except they were there #maybe the other thing was a popsocket? that sounds probable #anyways. soon it will be bag time>:3c #oh and ofc ppl who didnt order the wallets have already gotten their orders shes not making them wait for us kwbdkshf #so theyve been posting reviews too #im pretty sure 'just refund me for the wallet and give me the rest' was an option #i don't remember for sure and don't want to dig through all FORTY TWO EMAILS to check but id definitely be way more salty abt #the whole situation if they hadnt because thatd be shitty #im bad at remembering things but good at holding deserved grudges so the fact i dont have one tells me she didnt #love having to fuckin. sherlock holmes my own past lmao #but yeah as is im just like. i cannot imagine how much it must suck majorly to be in her shoes so she can take as long as she needs #like a while back i had someone order a thing off etsy ans it didnt notify me at all so they emailed me like a month later like #'hey any updates on my order?' and i was like. FUCK #and i felt terrible for like a month afterwards and gave them a bunch of free stickers to make up for it #and that was yknow. one person who ordered $6 worth of stickers
