(2024-06-22T02:49:49Z) ## Q&A - Q: When are the investor perk cases shipping? Invested $5k, received an email a while ago that they’d be shipping. Invested $5,000 on June 21st. So, the cases are literally only for people who invested $500? Strange to not offer that same perk to those who invested somewhere between perks, but over $500. - A: It was only for the $500 perk, I think wefunder accidently sent you the wrong email. Let me ask them. Ross - Q: Hey guys, I invested $500 back before it closed, still haven’t received my perks case, or any paperwork. Please advise. Thank you - A: Were you charged? I don't think it would let you invest without charging you. Ross - Q: I received a message from Ross on 9/28 stating all the cases shipped. Is there anyone else besides me still waiting? - A: Did you invest at the $500 perk? - Q: If this goes to the moon is there potential unlimited upsides and no cap? - A: Yes, I'm fine with giving up to 30% of the company to you guys, so I'll keep going after this first round closes. - Q: Curious, I haven’t received any correspondence since it closed in April nor have I received a case of the Hard AF - Q: Will we get any midgets? - A: I really hope so - Q: Hey Ross, when is the next round of cases going out? OHIO - A: What state do you live in? Ross - Q: Any update on the investor perk cases for those of us that still haven't received our case? 5k invested - A: Yes, what dollar amount did you invest? - Q: I didn't jump in until April at $1k, were the cases supposed to ship automatically? I never got one or an email about it. I'm in Ohio and have ordered to my house before. - Q: I invested $500, can't recall ever receiving an email regarding that I had invest. I, however didn't receive a case of Hard AF, though I have purchased a case from a nearby store and thoroughly enjoyed it. I do have first time dummy questions for first time Wefunders. My portfolio shows that I invested $500 but the realized/unrealized gains show $0 when will I see an amount increase from $0? - A: When we sell the company. - Q: Of course I invested on the last day and the bare minimum, but like Bruce Springsteen, I'm just a workin' man. I was wondering if the $500 perk case was still a thing? Keep up the amazing work fellas! - Q: Any update on the investor perk cases for those of us that still haven't received our case? 3k invested - Q: Hey guys, I invested $500. Still haven’t gotten my investor perks! Second time I’m reaching out here, never got a response the first time. Can anybody advise what’s going on with that? - A: We sent an email out 8 months ago. What state do you live in? - Q: Apologies in advance if this has already been asked, I invested 1k and I'm curious if it's a case per 500 or just 1 case for anything over 500. Thanks guys! - A: It was just the $500 level. Sorry if that was confusing on here. - Q: Good morning, is there a way that we can bring Hard AF to North Dakota? Thank you guys for what you do!
