I reckon 90% of Kickstarter surveys that ask for anything more than a shipping address have similar issues with mandatory fields.
I'm a Superbacker, so I should know
I suspect the KS survey creation tool needs a overhaul, just like their comments section.

I couldn't believe it was
exactly the same as I used it several year ago. So inflexible it's not funny. Being able to only run one survey and not edit it in any way once sent.
It's like it hasn't evolved at all.
Apparently there are a ton of 3rd party plugin programs available to do more, and the logistics houses ask us what "backer tool" we are using. When we say none, it's like "oh, ok".
So apparently I have mine already... Hmm hope this won't be an issue...
Good work with the project! From Gold Coast QLD.
I have 116 backer that have failed credit card processor, that's more than 5%. Was more than 7% before, but it's come down a bit.
Those backers have 7 days to fix before the system drops them as non-payers.
Any idea why I can't see the survey? Didn;t receive any notice from KS that I had an issue with the payment, and my bank told it was completed OK.
Backer number 1,136

What pledge level? Surveys go out by pledge level, so Dave may have only sent the surveys for December deliveries.
Kickstarter checks what you receive emails by tagging then with unique images. Every few months they decide my address is no longer valid, as I don't bother to view the images on the spam they send.
If you log into you account you can check if they have done the same to you.

Somehow my CC company declined KS reservation that was pending, but after hitting pay second time it went ok, looks like some security feature kicked in.

OK! Thanks. My pledge is Johnie B. Good.
Dave just a FYI I just completed my Kickstarter survey (backer 50 Whoo!) and the EU VAT Paypal email address is a required field.
I'm an Aussie so based on the question instructions it seems like it should have been left blank.
I had the same problem after selecting "No, please direct ship" I had to put an email address in - hopefully the email will just be ignored.
Yep, I goofed that, backers should have got an email explaining the goof. The field will be ignored for all those who didn't click yes to the previous question.
Don't think I received that e-mail. Have e-mails "project update" 1 thru 6 and "Response Needed! Get your reward for backing EEVblog 121GW Multimeter".
So apparently I have mine already... Hmm hope this won't be an issue...

There's a "Got It!" button in the reward tab that you can press when you receive shipment (I almost pressed it because quick glance I thought it was asking if I understood the reward page at first glance... 'Got It!'). Might be one time trigger....but maybe it can be deselected?

Did the same thing too, you can deselect it at any time when that form shows up.

That's just bad page design - and so incredibly easy to fix ... just change the text so there is no confusion. Kinda dumb.
Well, who knew that China has a 17% VAT + 11.3% tariff on sending stuff into their fulfillment centers
Trap for young players.
It would actually be cheaper to import into Australia and reship from here than reship from China, go figure.
Ouch! I presume that is because you're importing from South Korea into China before shipping out to ROW?
I saw this Kickstarter thing and thought I for sure need to back that project, however I manage to forget about it and now as I was about to back it I discover that I am 2 days late... I just wondered about how the future might look as for the availability for acquiring one of these multimeters now as the Kickstarter has ended?
Is the EEVblog.bin file available now? Does the meter come with a card or will I have to supply it?

It was previously indicated it comes with a card.
@GabYoung92: That 'Got it!' is just a marker you can set and unset. Just click on the tick and your meter just got un-delivered ;-). It is for you to manage your projects.
Kickstarter projects should have a graph of $ and number of backers so you can see the progress of interest in the item.
Just asking if other Backers are having received the Kickstarter 'Survey' email to edit in their shipping address they would like their DMM sent to and are finding the email sent again but with a completely different address???
I have gone directly to the Kickstarter webpage and am finding my OLD address from way back when i supported the Neil Young HiDef Audio Player... the Pono.!
I'm on the Johnny B. Goode scheme so no biggie as delivery is March 2018. Just wondering if any others can't alter things to their desired shipping address under the Kickstarter Survey.
(apologies if this has already been discussed.... don't have the time to read all the past posts)!

Yep I tried to click it but it didn't flip it to unchecked. Even restarted the browser just in case.
Just logged into KS then and it is unchecked. Not sure what happened there... Anyways got the survey a couple of days ago so should be fine. If not I'll have to go for a trip down to Sydney to the head office and lodge a complaint
Hi, did any of the EU backers receive PayPal invoices to pay VAT?
