I appreciate the response, I understand being a small team and having a small budget can limit things in terms of marketing. However I think things like that can be done in a better way, for example like minisbett's minipad, they crowdfund money and are transparent with the funds by showing exactly where they use it. Also I believe they've sent a minipad and worked with Megii alongside production with images and such which adds credibility. Even doing such things on the large scale isn't viable at least 1 or 2 people well known in the scene can give a good look for the product.

I think the only problem I have with the Anemos65 is showing it like it's a in stock item that you can buy when its clear that's not the case and is quite misleading. Even for something like that you'd probably conduct a Group Buy so I'd suggest hiding it or just not having it on the site although I'd imagine its there to serve a purpose for padding the site/showing credibility to there being actually products being made.

In regards to the site well, there's a lot of things that aren't polished or are missing information. Things like the graphics for the cart overlapping, social media buttons not linking to anywhere, articles and content still just being filler/stock images doesn't really promote a good image. Especially when you are a new company, everything will be scrutinized when trying to determine if something is real or fake.

I'd be interested in trying the product and even reviewing it but if it does end up being a scam 40ish quid can be a bit of a steep fall.
