I loved the concept of it, but when you read how much they gave the inventor... it was crazy...if you have a great idea keep pushing for the right things to come together, not a rip off deal of your ideas! And that is why it is where it is.

Quirky did ALL the hard, expensive, risky parts (go-to-market, marketing, etc). How is the inventor cut not sufficient?

Ultimately Quirky failed BECAUSE they took on all the risk and shipped too many duds and not enough hits.

Yea exactly they did everything and left out the inventor, what that does is create a one tracked mind team behind them all and not only that it didn't attract real inventors to get great product ideas. If they gave the inventor more you would have better products. Products take a variety of people and different options, a product can't be streamlined by the same people each time.
