> The idea that someone could make 61 different purchases over a span of years, and then go back and think that they are entitled to refunds for all of them is a little crazy. There is an important distinction to be made. I agree that he should not be entitled to change his mind about wanting a refund, years down the line. But a corporation should not be entitled to unilaterally declare itself a sovereign entity, where it becomes both the defendant and the judge in lawsuits brought against it! So sure, right verdict, but based on really terrible legal reasoning that needs to be overturned.

That's not a refund years after one received a product, it's years after he was promised a product that he has not yet received! The fact that they gave him prototypes of the product in the meanwhile has little relevance (altough if those "prototypes" were explicitly mentioned as part of what you would get in exchange of the funding, they could be regarded as a partial delivery and their assessed value ought to be discounted from the refund). But I really don't even know the Kickstarter terms, I'm just speculating...
