Reply To: Large Kickstarters should be more open about shipping costs

I’d say that even if they could predict the total costs to the last decimal they’d lean on the psychology to lure in people.

The biggest problem is that (a) it is very hard to prove and (b) crowdfunding platforms have nothing to gain by enforcing total honesty (less money in projects means less profit for them … ).
Never mind the added cost in manpower needed to check and verify every project …
