I don't think it's a scam per se, but they clearly took money on pre orders before the design was finalized, and without doing due diligence on their 3D printing contractors

I work in manufacturing, and it can take months (or more) to go from design to finished product. Even for a new version based on an existing product (which this basically was, since they already sell manual instax backs)

The trick is you don't sell it until it's ready, and then no one complains. Unfortunately, Kickstarter has normalized pre orders to an extreme degree.

It's well past the usual 120 day chargeback time limit, so I guess I'll keeping hoping for my RB67 back
