Generally speaking kickstarter is an awful idea… Actually always speaking its an awful idea where you lose a lot of protections you’d typically have. Only use it if you can’t wait, can afford to lose the money, are very familiar with the type of product there, and have good reason to think the company will act in good faith.
I for instance kickstarted a Bambulab X1C with AMS and its been great, but it was an admittedly stupid gamble going through kickstarter. I really wanted the feature set it had to become more popular though and so wanted to contribute to the marketing hype, despite usually hating that.
As for this printer, seeing it was cancelled, maybe it was too good to be true, but what Im imagining is that the person behind it was hoping for more traction and their kickstarter goal was actually too low to complete the project with the price set.
I think the printer listed is very doable, at around 500 bucks, and should be more standard, but it looks like they were trying to sell this thing just over break even which cant work for kickstarter with all the overhead.
