Kicked to the Curb: Kickstarter's Hidden Wasteheap of Killed Projects

Kicked to the Curb: Kickstarter's Hidden Wasteheap of Killed Projects - On Friday, September 14th, the team at Vinted Goods was riding high. Their Kickstarter project for a line of vintage-style leather bags and accessories had doubled its original goal, Details magazine had dubbed them "Another Kickstarter Success", and they were closing in on the deadline. Then, 10 hours before the project was due to succeed, it vanished -- replaced by a page that simply says, "Sorry, this project is no longer available."
