£90 pledged

I pledged 50£ in april last year
and £40 in december last year BEFORE the cut off date for the store closing

And yet total pledged is 85£ NOT 90£

This means I dont get my tshirt

Where have I lost 5£?

That sounds like Standard (second round) beta (£50) plus Expansion Pass (£35). The store does not have a product that equates to the £90 pledge, i.e.
Physical DRM-free collector's premium boxed edition of "Elite: Dangerous". This includes all the rewards above, except a premium boxed edition is in place of the standard boxed addition, which includes a T shirt with "I backed Elite: Dangerous" on the back, and a paperback copy of the official sequel to "The Dark Wheel".
so it records your purchases using items that exist in the store. If you check the backer's app then you should still be at £90.
 
The new store is separate from the backers' app, so your extras aren't counted there. As far as the store is concerned, you own: Second round beta (£50) + Extras for life (£35) = £85 worth of stuff.

I'm assuming you pledged for the premium boxed edition? If so, that will still be on its way when the game releases, and you'll get all your other perks too.

85 on the store? or on the web app? it's not the same thing, you're likely to see less in the store(the ks bonuses are not shown there except for alpha, betas, expansion pack & the game itself, only in the web app).

+1. I would not have said better

Imagine a "Jameson" who has engaged £ 1,500, and who sees only £ 200 in the new store

:p

Just be thankful you didn't look at the store a couple of weeks ago. Likelihood is that it only showed £50 for Standard Beta back then. :eek:

Anyway, as others have said, you'll still get your pledged items. The store only shows a subset of the items. I also pledged to the £90 level and only see £85 listed in the store.
 
Found out today that if you bought an extra (premium boxed copy) in the KS backers app (in addition to main pledge) you won't get anything for the equivalent level in the KS list (beta access, reserve cmdr name, decal etc,etc).

You won't have access to it until it drops on your doormat, even though its equivalent to beta and dlc download in the store currently (with t-shirt etc which download doesn't have) even though it was the only way to buy a 2nd copy at the time.
Obviously it doesn't say it would be available before launch, but then again it didn't say it didn't either, but a funny way to reward early money.
Personally I'm not too bothered, I pledged high and picking up a beta copy when they're not going to wipe stats is probably what I'll do, and gift the box copy when it lands.
Really just a FYI or clarification if anybody else has done same.
Deck.
 
Apparently my Expansion Pass order has been completed already. Just waiting for the basic game to play it on now.
Not sure if your replying to me, but if you are I'm talking about the full game with the expansion as an added extra to the main pledge, won't be available until release (after alpha, beta, gamma).
If you wanted an alt commander name, you might miss your prefered one if you wait till it gets posted.
