pretty cool
That'll probably ruin him unless he's picked a manufacturer that can pump these things out. I bet he has long ass delays and angry customers.
Coolest, the company behind a popular Kickstarter-funded cooler, is now selling its product for $499 on Amazon in an effort to raise enough money to continue producing new units. The news may frustrate Kickstarter backers, who were promised the product in February of this year. Coolest said today it now plans to deliver the last shipment of coolers to Kickstarter backers by April 2016.
In a video uploaded to YouTube, CEO Ryan Grepper said the Amazon sale is to "keep the lights on" and "make certain that every single backer's Coolest can get made and shipped." The problem lies in the cooler's blending motor, which is made by a supplier that's currently on strike, he said. Coolest has been unable to find a viable replacement.
KICKSTARTER BACKERS ARE FURIOUS THE COOLEST IS SELLING ON AMAZON
Coolest customers aren't happy. In fact, 1-star Amazon reviews are flowing in from furious backers questioning why the vast majority of units have yet to be shipped.
After looking at the irate Amazon reviews, the sales of this thing are going to plummet anyways.
You can't take Kickstarter money then blow off the people who gave it to you and sell the product like you have no debts.
Man, you like to argue everything.
The owner of the company is blaming the lack of products on a strike at the company that produces the blender motors. Still, he has enough Coolests to continue to sell them on Amazon. Says he can't get the motors anywhere else. BS. I smell a rat. So do many of the Kickstarter contributors hence the product getting blasted on Amazon.
