Dear Creality, please urgently provide an update to the backers. The last official information I saw was that you would ship our scanners by the end of April regardless of the outcome of the IP legal challenge - presumably because the challenge only relates to PC software and not the physical hardware. What is happening? We need to know.

If you cannot ship the scanners then you must provide full refunds to all backers.

Artec cannot have any legitimate claim to receive the funds we have pledged - that would be theft. Our pledges to Creality for the scanners has nothing to do with a legal claim by Artec against of Creality. If Creality has to settle then that payment would come from the assets held by Creality, and I assume that as a successful business you can afford to settle from them.

@AdrianR Creality's total silence towards backers recently is really worrying. Why is it not possible to have an update from them? I've made a significant payment via KS and have a right to know. As an absolute minimum, they should confirm their good intentions towards backers and, perhaps, say something like "legal proceedings are ongoing and we will update you whether there are developments, or none, every week"...
