A-hem. Well, it would seem I missed something. But, at any rate, just wanted to come and let everyone know that I saw on the Custom Saber Owner's Group on Facebook... the very first ASP shipping label was printed today. They're coming, guys. Train might be a bit slow to get rolling, but it's on the tracks and the whistle is blowing. I think that a lot of people who pledged either fundraising campaigns went in with the wrong mindset. It isn't a regular business transaction (I give you X you give me Y). You're giving money so something awesome can come to fruition, and SF gives you something in return as a thank you. It may not seem like a difference, but that's the way I see it; it's called a pledge and not a purchase. This is more apparent in other campaigns were the thing being funded isn't a product or concrete thing (like the Dragon's Lair movie Don Bluth has been trying to get off the ground). And a lot of times your "reward" for your pledge isn't worth as much as you gave (like a tote bag for giving $50 to PBS), except with the ASP campaign what we're getting is worth more than what we pledged. That being said... |

That being said... I think you nailed it, Jaden. A lot of people seem to mentally be going at this as a straight up purchase, rather than donation with a thank you incentive attached. A lot of them also don't seem to realize that the shipping date originally provided was an estimate, and one for a project roughly 1/10th the size of what it ended up being, at that. But, having said that... I have an update! I just saw confirmation in the comments of the post I screen shotted earlier. Confirmation that was provided... by our dear Knytiri himself: 15 ASP orders (from the first batch of 150 produced) were shipped today.

Sweet! I can't wait to see the reviews/youtube videos for these things! I really hope someone does a good thorough video showing off each part, how they go together, how the wiring goes in, etc etc. I want to see the whole process beginning to end.
I'm going to lay down such a huge order on the day they open the ASP system up to the public! The one i'm getting through my Indiegogo pledge isn't enough to satisfy me plus now my wife and youngest daughter want to design their own as well. Its going to be exciting times here at the ole homestead! |
