      I sent you like 6 emails about a poster order I made on your website, and you still have not gotten back to me. I already paid you, but the order was incorrect and incomplete.

      PLEASE GET BACK TO ME!

      Creator Nekola Noel Prosperie on November 20, 2012

      As for full disclosure...the current posters I got were shipped after I sent Max a PM. So I would like to oppolagize for some of my assumptions. And to those who haven't yet gotten their posters I think the best bet is to PM Max. Thanks Max & sorry for any wrongful assumptions I've made.

      Thanks Max...the delays are all cool...I love the product you created..and once I have me a home library (aka. "Hall of Knowledge") your posters will surely be hanging from the walls. Lol

      I just got mine in today. I was told it was resent weeks ago but postage mark stated November 14th. I hold honesty & full disclosure in high esteem. I am more than happy waiting like I did for the posters because I finally got them. And I think the majority feels the same about waiting as long as they get the product. But in the end I'm more satisfied than disappointed, and would be more satisfied without any deception (assuming there was any...and assuming that my situation isn't a fluke caused by an unintentional mistake)...then again I'm sure it's hard managing 14 hundred orders....but water under the bridge now. Thanks for the posters. To those who haven't gotten your posters yet, good luck & hope things work out in the end, as it did for me.

      I have not received my poster either. My address is in the USA too and I get mail here all the time with zero problems. I am not sure what is happening. Can you send me a private message or contact me to find a solution, please?

      Creator Max Temkin on November 14, 2012

      Hey Nekola - I'm really sorry that you haven't gotten your posters - I've sent them twice. I've sent you a private message to try and work out some alternate shipping.

    9. Fb_profile_picture.small

      Creator Nekola Noel Prosperie on November 13, 2012

      I still have not received any of my posters that I have anxiesly been waiting on. I even filled out the google form for the shipping of posters that I never received the first go round. I'm curious if those have shipped yet or if they got lost in the mail (again). I love the message the posters I bought convey & would be excited to get the posters i bought. As for Raul, I think he has a point to his argument that I myself have contemplated (more like a feeling) as a possibility before I read his comments. But when it comes down to it, the majority seems satisfied. So I'm inclined to believe that my experience is just a flaw that places me in the minority that is still waiting on his posters he ordered.

      Creator Raul Palacios on October 9, 2012

      Mike,
      Why would it take over 2 weeks to delivery a package to you. The truth is that Max probably didn't ship his poster out when he said he did. In most case product can ship from cost to coast in around 10 business days. Not a big deal but yet another example of Max's true character.

      That is dishonest. No matter how clever his posters are he does not disclose the truth.

      So what is my next step.
      The projects creator has taken over 5 months to deliver a product that he stated would be deliveries in May. 5 months later I have yet to receive anything from him. I am left with having to post these childish comments and hope he will respond to my private messages.

      I hope Max will contact me soon to resolve this issue. I would love to just walk away at this point leaving you all to enjoy your posters without my negative comments.

      Raul, In the interest of Full Disclosure, I also did not receive my poster. (The only reason I saw your post was because I was trying to see if there was any news) I sent Max an email yesterday and he responded immediately. Now, with a knock on my door, I JUST received my poster and I'm going to have to tell Max to cancel my request for a new one. Max is the real deal. This project went WELL beyond his original goal and some latitude is warranted. Max has communicated his progress throughout this process and I applaud him for that. I have NO doubt in my mind that Max did what he said he did and I have NO doubt you will get what you paid for.

      Creator Raul Palacios on October 9, 2012

      Mike. You are entitled to your opinion. As I hope you believe that I am as we'll. I'm most upset with The fact that Max is dishonest. And you may think me ugly but I can think of no uglier action then being.

      Most of my post where made privately at first and I only went public after each of Max's responses.

      I did suggest to Max to simply offer me refund and we could agree to part ways. He refused.

      I asked him to provide me with the shipping date. He refused.

      I asked Max to provide me with a tracking number. He refused.

      I asked Max to confirm the original shipping address. He refused.

      I like the posters. I think there nice. Perhaps next time Max might research a few quotes on intellectual integrity.

      Creator Mike Prescott on October 9, 2012

      Wow, Raul you were so moved by Max and his vision of Philosophy Posters that have these intense meanings behind them. They encourage you to think differently, act differently, and live differently. You believed in that enough to back his project. Now, you turn into this UGLY, CYNICAL, DISGUSTING, human being. Personally I don’t think you deserve a poster. The meaning behind whichever poster you chose was obviously lost on you.

    15. Missing_small

      Creator Raul Palacios on October 9, 2012

      So still no response from Max about which address he originally shipped my order and he refuse to provide me with any tracking information. I've never had an issue with Ups, fedEx or USPS losing an order. But I guess it does happen (but shouldn't he know where he shipped my poster).

      This guy is very dishonest.

    16. Missing_small

      Creator Raul Palacios on October 8, 2012

      I have asked Max to provide his shipping date and any tracking of my order.
      He refuses to provide me with this simple request.

      Max keeps asking me for my shipping address. So he can lie about sending out a replacement poster.

      I can provide this information to him only after he confirms the address his records show the he originally shipped my package to. Not a big deal in most case except when you are dealing with a dishonest person (who never shipped my package).

      So Max, please tell me why you don't have my shipping address.?

    17. Missing_small

      Creator Raul Palacios on October 8, 2012

      My poster got lost in mail. Is that like the check is in the mail. That's actually pretty funny the Max will blame his shipper for me not getting my package.

      Max why not just tell the truth.

    18. Missing_small

      Creator Raul Palacios on October 8, 2012

      Max just asked me for my shipping address .

      Shouldn't he already have this.

      Max if I give you my address how long will it take to get a poster. 4 months again, maybe 5 months this time.

      Raul, it looks like about twenty backers out of 1,393 (1.43%) didn't receive their posters. That's a lower failure rate than we had when fulfilling Cards Against Humanity to Kickstarter backers.

    21. Missing_small

      Creator Raul Palacios on October 8, 2012

      I was wondering how many backers have not received their posters yet. I find it very "interesting" that Max plans to issue an update odor those backers that did not receive their posters.

      I think he simply didn't ship them all out when a said he did.

      I think he is dishonest and a liar.

      Hi Max, Do you have an estimate of when I will receive my poster. I sent you a message last week but I didn't hear back. I'm really looking forward to receiving my poster. Thanks

      Pascale thank you for posting that, I am anxiously awaiting my Camus as well. I loved what you posted because in all honesty I have never heard of Camus so I was intrigued by your link, Thank you for posting it.,..

      I LOVE MY CAMUS!!!!!

      It's inspired me to find out a bit more about him. I've read L'Etranger and La Peste, but no more. Revolt seems like a good next read:
