Review from Kickstarter

Their last login was June 3rd. 5 days after promising that they would be better at keeping us in the loop. At this point I am hoping for news on where we are at. When the surveys will be sent out, and when they anticipate the ship date. We're months behind schedule. That's fine. But let us know where we stand. ༼ つ ◕_ ◕ ༽つ GIVE COLORSPIKE UPDATE ༼ つ ◕_ ◕ ༽つ

Truly, it's REALLY time for an update. Please, when is completion and delivery expected? July 2018? Sept 2018? Jan 2019? Excited for the product, but quite frustrated now with communication level.

Jason

Review from Kickstarter

I'm editing some videos today and then going for a walk outside. That's my update.

Joel bloomfeild...when you shoot alot and do great work..its not that hard when business is good;)..but I understand people like you probably do not have anyone willing to pay for your work..I would laugh at you as well..but then that would make me just like you..believe me we are on different levels..goodday☺🤣

Matthew Nelson

Review from Kickstarter

Considering the last update on May 24th didn't give any update on expected delivery, I think we're WAY past due for an update on this. Delays can be accepted. Lack of communication is simply frustrating.

Joel Bloomfield

Review from Kickstarter

I'm laughing at all the people who were silly enough to promise shoots based on a piece of equipment they dont have yet

Hey guys we are approaching the halfway point of this month..I can imagine you guys are busy..I myself work 4 jobs..but I found 2 minutes of free time to send you guys a request for an update..would be cool if you can do the same.

Review from Kickstarter

i keep thinking these are going to be shipping for shoots coming up... and then they aren't. Glad they are going to be better- but when is the shipping now? Update?

Jason

Review from Kickstarter

I'm hoping that we hear back from bitbanger before the week is out. Really hoping we can get a timetable on delivery.

Happy to help! Can't wait to get my hands on these babies!!!

Review from Kickstarter

Thanks Jason! Hadn't seen that in the updates. Just ordered a second one.

Review from Kickstarter

A new estimated time of delivery would be delightful, indeed.

Jack Chapman

Review from Kickstarter

Is there any chance of getting a rough idea of delivery at this point? I'm loving the info and certainly appreciate you guys making the best product you possibly can... I'm all for it... but is there any indication on when these will be shipped out yet? I'm planning a creative short around these lights 😁

Jason

Review from Kickstarter

Hi Christian, I added a colorspike to my order last week. I found the info in one of the updates. Just head to their website and then purchase the colorspike using the promo code "missedbacker." Keep your order number handy and when it comes time to fill out the survey just input the order number there.

Christian

Review from Kickstarter

Tried messaging you but didn't get a response. Can I add another Colorspike to my order? I ordered 2 barn door bundles as my understanding was that we'd be able to add to our orders.

Thanks for all the feedback gang - we'll try and update again as soon as we have more info. @Kyle - hey, that's not cool, I think it took us a day to answer your email

I tell you what, when I emailed them asking how I can add two more to my order, I received a reply in seconds. So now I'm waiting for 5. ༼ つ ◕_ ◕ ༽つ GIVE COLORSPIKE DELIVERY DATE ༼ つ ◕_ ◕ ༽つ

Review from Kickstarter

Exactly. I have 0 issue with the delay. They just gotta talk to us more. The fact that they are only 2 isn't a reason I am willing to accept.

Matthew Nelson

Review from Kickstarter

I agree that communication is pretty disappointing with this. Delays are disappointing, but with the improvements being mentioned, it sounds like they will be worth the wait, and I'm good with that, for sure. But, the long stretches of silence is certainly a frustrating thing. When will we have the opportunity to add-on with these accessories? Any new timelines at all here?

Jason

Review from Kickstarter

Bitbanger, I think we would all like to know what the timeline is in terms of where you are currently at and the projection until the units go out the door to the backers. I gotta reiterate this. You guys need to up your game with regards to communication. It isn't good enough. Out of all the Kickstarter campaigns I am backing - this is the one I'm most excited about. It is disappointing to see so many messages go unanswered and to have radio silence from you in between the updates. ༼ つ ◕_ ◕ ༽つ GIVE COLORSPIKE UPDATE ༼ つ ◕_ ◕ ༽つ

Kyle James-Patrick

Review from Kickstarter

Four questions. Which will probably go unanswered. 1. How many units can you link with the same software? 3? 5? 12?
2. Can we add to our existing orders? I have ordered 3. For waiting this long I want to order 5.
3. When are you shipping the units?
4. Seriously, when are you shipping the units? (ಥ﹏ಥ) ETA PLEASE - THIS IS GETTING SILLY (ಥ﹏ಥ)

LOL Ask and ye shall receive eh Jason? ;) (｡◕‿‿◕｡) WE LOVE UPDATES (｡◕‿‿◕｡) But srsly, look back at my post... "Seperate timing...
4-5 weeks + 2-3 weeks + 3 weeks + 6 weeks = 15-17 Weeks = May 25th - June 8th.
Concurrently.... 6 weeks = April 12th."
KJP - Feb 9th 2018 Turns out I was spot on with my prediction because even now, we have no idea when these will ship... but I will totally be buying those barn doors.

Jason

Review from Kickstarter

I hear you, Kyle. Even an update saying there is nothing to update would be great. Here is the thing - I understand that these guys want to go it alone and have their shitck be that they are just two guys. But that doesn't mean that should come at the expense of communication. Looking at their last Kickstarter, there were complaints about communication. As a result, they got fewer backers this time around. Sure there were some return backers. But the numbers of this campaign are small in comparison (663 backers vs 2,171 for pixelstick). Price point is pretty much the same for both products. It is unfortunate that we don't hear from Bitbanger that often. I like what they have to offer. But they need to get someone to handle communications, or devote 2 hours a week for updates. With all this said:

Review from Kickstarter

(ಥ﹏ಥ) WHY YOU NO UPDATE (ಥ﹏ಥ) Things that would be nice:
1. A Product Shot
2. A Picture of the Software
3. A Gif of something working
4. A hint at how shipping will work
5. A weekly update even if it says "there will be no update" My a7riii turned up faster than the BitBanger update, that's pretty incredible. But will you write back? ¯(°_o)/¯

Hey guys from Bitbanger! Would be great if we could receive that invoice :). Send email but didn't receive the invoice uptil now. Getting more and more excited to go out and create. So please let us know when we will be getting into action with our own colorspikes!

Christian

Review from Kickstarter

I couldn't agree more with Jason. I'm not at all concerned about the Bitbanger guys delivering. Delays and setbacks are inevitable and I completely understand. The backers of Colorspike have been so patient and I've been impressed with how civil everyone is and not overreacting by demanding refunds. All we're asking for is some communication here. Let us know where you are in the process and keep us updated.

Jason

Review from Kickstarter

I actually trust the guys from Bit Banger. They've run successful kickstarters in the past, pre-sales are up on their site. And they have left a trail of happy customers. So my mind is more at ease than what it would be with some other kickstarter projects. The question is, WHEN will we get this. If there is another delay, I can see why people would be upset (I would be). This close to delivery, there is no way they don't already know about it if there is one. Communication needs to be at the forefront. I look at a campaign like Arsenal, where the one guy working on it, answers everyone's question within a few hours - and that campaign has over 15,000 backers. That project has suffered delays but he's been so transparent over the campaign and post funding that people are ok with it. We need that level of communication from bitbanger. I don't buy the "We are so busy that we can't log on and post" that a lot of kickstarter campaigns run to. I'm hoping that bitbanger doesn't use the same excuse.

Kyle James-Patrick

Review from Kickstarter

For me, there's only one solution to this gong show of communication and I will relate it to an experience I felt leading up to my 13th Birthday. I wasn't told anything of my birthday plan, I complained, I wanted to invite my friends, but my parents said that we were going to my Grandmothers and that was final. They said nothing at all leading up to the day and I was choked. Saturday morning I get up and my parents are doing their usual rituals and I was choked, but imagine my surprise when my Dad casually says in the car "We're not going to Grandma's, we're going to a theme park and all your friends are meeting us there." Overjoyed was I, greatest birthday ever. So I am hoping that BitBanger are going to announce fully working, tested, final production status Colorspike's with a shipping date. I have never backed a Kickstarter before and I am hoping that the anxiety created from this experience flips like my 13th Birthday. Please BB, pleeeeeeease.
