The SwissPen (swiss-3dprint.com) seems to be selling smoke....

A number of gadget and 3-D printing sites have gushing previews of the SwissPen, a 3Doodler knock off that was supposed to come to market ahead of the great kickstarter success.

I backed 3Doodler on kickstarter and now have it in hand.  Not without problems of its own

I also ordered a SwissPen in October 2013.   More that 3 months later, no pen, no refund, and the company is emerging as a big scam.

Gerard's blog Here and here report an experience similar to mine.

Comments  and (Comments) on some of those laudatory SwissPen previews now show many others got taken in.

What is most concerning to me is that Paypal really enabled this scam.  By sending lots of  "Sorry, we had a delay" and "your pen has shipped, I'll get you a tracking number" messages -- in my case these messages from swiss-3Dprint.com were sent through paypal's own dispute resolution center -- the seller manages to put even the concerned buyer on hold until after paypal's dispute resolution option has expired.

3Doodler troubleshooting

3Doodler is the handheld "3-D printer" which was a big hit on kickstarter.   Essentially it is a big fat pen with a drive system, heater, and nozzle through which you can extrude ABS or PLA (using their proprietary filaments.... a significant upsell!)

I got mine recently and am here to report on its premature demise.  After 8 or 10 filaments over 3 days, I started a real design project, using black ABS. Shortly the pen clogged or jammed.  Nothing coming out.  Their site advises trying to push it through with a new filament -- no go.  Then it advises removing and unclogging the nozzle with flame or acetone. Don't burn your fingers.  Still my device was jammed.  When I tried the last step on their FAQ guidance, to advance or back up the filament, instead a white nylon sleeve/tube came out from the distal end.  It appeared to be jammed and filled with solid black ABS.   I could not reinsert this tube into the pen.

So far the company has not responded to customer service requests.
