Paid $176 in 2015. Never received my lamp. I backed The Lampster on Kickstarter in 2015, pledging $176 with shipping included. Estimated delivery was June 2016. I never received my lamp. I followed up many times over the years by email and Facebook. In 2022 they asked me to pay an extra $40 for shipping, even though my pledge already covered it. I never got the lamp or a refund. Their last Kickstarter update was in 2019. Meanwhile their website thelampster.com is still running and selling the same lamp today. I ordered one from their website and it arrived fine. They can fulfill orders. They just never fulfilled their backers. Think twice before giving this company your money.

Do not order here! They have not delivered the lamp even after intervention of PayPal.

Backed them on Kickstarter over 10 years ago, and even though they made more than they were asking for, they never sent my lamp. Kept asking me to pay extra on top of what I'd payed. Absolute con artists.

Criminals and frauds.

Du pur scam, tout simplement. Une honte ! Ce qui est fou c'est que le site web fonctionne toujours et qu'il y a toujours moyen de commander des lampes... Alors que sur Kickstarter c'est impossible pour la plupart d'entre nous de récupérer l'argent ou la lampe concernée...

Projet backé en 2016 sur Kickstarter. Je n'ai jamais reçu ma contrepartie et jamais aucune réponse à mes diverses demande. Un énorme scam !

I too, backed this company by purchasing 2 Lampsters on Kickstarter back in 2015. They never fulfilled the order, and instead, in 2022 (7 whole years after the KS campaign !), began asking for an additional payment to cover shipping costs. I have contacted the company several times through Facebook Messenger, asking for updates, but they are no longer responding. Kickstarter backers contributed over $1.3 million to launch this project, and only a fraction ever received their item(s). I am deeply sickened to see that company owners "Radu & Andrew" are now selling their product through their website, despite scamming the crowd that supported them on Kickstarter. I, for one, have been scammed for 375 USD. Businesses like this are the exact reason why I no longer support any projects on Kickstarter.

I paid in full on Kickstarter including shipping to NZ. Then nothing, after 2 years of messaging they agree to ship if I pay more shipping, but they will never give me an invoice. They have stolen a lot of peoples money. I have kept a copy of all interactions in the hope there will one day be a class action against them. I think they just send out a few to make it looks like they are legit, but most people lose their money and it's US$208 - that's a lot. .
