Im not saying itl be a big amount, but it could be enough to be annoying. People can back out for whatever reason they want. Some people back out because they dont understand how kickstarter works, and they think their money gets wasted if the KS doesnt reach its goal (yes, iv seen a BUNCH of people spread this misinformation on other forums, it is alarming). And then theres this to think about: kickstarters seem to have around 5-10% of their amount disappear from people who put in bad credit card info. On the DFA forum they reported that $200k+ dollars vanished from people whose cards didnt clear, and they never fixed it.
