Heyo – so did this museum ever get built or was this campaign a scam?

Pritpaul Mahal almost 10 years ago

I think I’m in a similar spot, having received the photo but not the bumper sticker. I don’t trust my memory enough on this to make a big issue of it though, but wanted to throw some support in for A. Merrick’s claim

A. Merrick almost 10 years ago

I donated several times, and should have gotten multiple “rewards”. I did receive the “cheapest” donation reward, at the correct address. I did not, however, receive all the rewards I should have. At this point, I am not asking for them, and I am not even really complaining—just stating that there was some error/fail when it came to getting everything mailed out properly.

Can we please have some news of the museum? the last update is more than year ago.

It would really fair to the people that helped to raise $ 1,370,461 to know precisely how the money will be spent and when.

This is the first campaign I have sponsored via Indiegogo with 150$, and I find the lack of information really annoying and unfair.

Another one here. I never heard back about the perk rewards, and had completely forgotten until IndieGoGo contacted me to ask me with a survey asking whether I’d received them.

What happened?

Elizabeth Camero 10 years ago

I never did get my perks. Sad face.

The Tesla Museum should definitely include some kind of exhibit like this. SO awesome!
