This is absolutely interesting but I'm not sure if post-Kickstarter you'd regain a target goal or some of other same functionality. Rather you may want to be able to pre-order with a different model. Like Pebble took with their website.

Interesting thought. We let the shop owner decide the model.

You should add a big button to this blog post "Check out a Shopstarter demo"

Great suggestion. A lot of people followed this and played with the demo!

Brilliant business model. Just brilliant. May I suggest not forcing people to use facebook login? Maybe use something not locked in like FB?

Definitely! We support this via email. Facebook was a natural choice since Kickstarter uses it for campaign owners.

Fantastic business idea. Can't wait to see where this goes.

Thanks!

Awesome great idea!

Damn, I wish I would have known I would have donated the domain "AfterStarter.com" to you. I ditched it a few months ago and someone else nabbed it.

I was going to use it to make a site that lists all the links to stores where you can buy Kickstarter products after they're done with Kickstarter. Got busy with other things and it never went anywhere.

Cool, thanks for thinking of us. It's crazy how much of a time sync domain names have become!
