Are there any differences in the way the product must be represented (and is regulated by laws/contracts) between the fulfilment of pledges/pre-orders and with regard to the matter of selling off excess stock? I follow another crowd-funding campaign where manufacturing may have been done at levels to fulfil both pledges and orders from retailers, but then I start to wonder about things like warranties (and such): a "pledger" is getting a reward, but a customer through a retailer is getting a purchase that is presumably regulated rather differently. Maybe excess units are required to cover a small proportion of units that might fail for unforeseen reasons, where you might offer to replace units at your discretion.

Maybe another update or two to indicate some kind of deadline might solve this dilemma for you.
