Scam!!! Beware!!! I ordered this in 2015 and have not received it. They won't send me the lamp unless I send them more money.

Your order details are shown below for your reference: Order #xxxxx Product Quantity Price Color Body : Basic Colors : black 1 $178.00 Subtotal: $178.00 (ex. tax) Discount: -$178.00 Shipping: Free Shipping Total: $0.00 Et depuis j'attends , c'est une arnaque , surtout ne vous engagez pas la dedans

If I could give 0 stars I would. I am original Kickstarter backer. Communication stopped over a year ago. I emailed them to find out what was going on, and was told the yellow I had ordered has issues, and they weren’t sure they could deliver it. So I asked for green instead. They then told me I’d have to pay an extra $40 to have it sent. I asked for a refund, and radio silence. I’ve been waiting 5 years (project was funded in 2015). And they are taking and filling orders for new customers when they haven’t yet delivered on their pledge. Stay away.

I wrote a review for this company about 2 months ago but it was removed. Come on Lampster, face up to your failures. I paid them money for a lamp over 5 years ago in a Kickstarter campaign and still haven't received it. The lack of communication and transparency during the campaign has been the worst I have ever seen on Kickstarter. The company created a shell company in San Francisco so customers wouldn't know that they were actually located in Romania. Companies in Romania are banned from Kickstarter. The company received over $1.3 million from Kickstarter and almost $1.5 million from Indiegogo. You'd think they could send out a few $200 lamps. From the comments on Kickstarter, it appears that some people have received their lamps although the reviews aren't great. Many are broken or damaged. They are definitely less than what was described. Most backers have not received anything. Despite that, the lampster people are selling lamps online while ignoring the Kickstarter backers. And, they will not honor refunds. This company is a total disaster. I've had it with Lampster and I'm done with Kickstarter.

After 5 years of delaying and lies they refuse to send the lamp. They even want more money to have is transfered and after that they lose communication. They should be in jail.

I was an original Kickstarter backer and I still have not received my lamp. After they took my money and put me on a list to receive, did they change and try to extort more money from me by telling me that if I wanted the lamp I would have to pay for shipping. For more than 4 Yrs I have been waiting, takes usually 3-5 attempts at contact before ever getting a response. A bait and switch scam straight from the textbooks. So forget the good faith in funding before they had a product, forget taking them at their word. Unless you pay the additional money they will not honor their promises. Extortion.

They refuse to ship funded campaign lamps without paying additional shipping fees... five years after the campaign closed. It's clear they used funding to get started and are now ignoring the original backers.

A Clear Scam They have scammed users from kickstarter and Indiegogo DO NOT Buy from these scammers
