Have you supported a Kickstarter campaign? Would you do it again? Was the quality of the reward what you expected?

I invested a small amount in one that collapsed back in 2013 after lots of excuses and delays. I never got anything.

I've not invested in any other electronics on Kickstarter but I have provided some for films etc, all of which delivered.
Hi Andy,
sorry that you unfortunately met one of the worst kickstarters and scammer in the world of hardware. He is just a - well known - Italian guy (sic) that has also been part of the sued ex-arduino company that tried to scam also Banzi & C. I don't like particularly arduino but sure I dislike this kind of approach. Lived in Turin and near around for years this is a well known situation...
