Moonside appears to be scamming consumers!
I kickstarted the Moonside MagLite project which closed Sep 2023 with a project Nov 23 shipping date. Since then, Moonside has been very poor at communicating updates. They have issued what appear to be bogus shipping notices (the notices are real, but the accessories and products never seem to arrive to anyone). Responses to customers asking for more details receive generic responses to delay and deflect - including several cases where Moonside claim the items were "signed for" but the recipient never received the item and attempts to clarify what was shipped and to what address have been met with deflection. In addition, they now appear to be selling this product to consumers having never fulfilled their backers shipments, and it is yet to be proven these new sales are actually resulting in the item being shipped. There are no validated user reviews, no images of backers or purchasers receiving the item in the wild. It would seem it's vaporware and the company is stringing along customers far enough that they can't rescind their payments. Lesson learned about whom to support with Kickstarters - but it appears Moonside MagLite is a scam. DO NOT BUY!
