"Hello everyone, it was my team (myself and two friends) who did the freelance work for Steadfast Coffee a few years ago and posted the statement on the site yesterday. I think it's worth sharing that yesterday the Owner did pay us an agreed-upon partial payment. He also communicated he will pay the remainder before the New Year, and we genuinely believe he will follow through. The only other thing I want to say is this: There's been a LOT of hard work from a LOT of amazing people to make Steadfast what it is today, and if you like what it is, you should absolutely keep going. The reason we waited so long to post that statement is because we genuinely love the things we worked to help create, and we still want to see it succeed."

The above comment was posted by "gregoryprivett" on Instagram on Steadfast Coffees controversial photo from 2 weeks ago.

Today is January 2nd, this sentence from Gregory Privett's statement, "[The owner] also communicated he will pay the remainder before the New Year, and we genuinely believe he will follow through" is the one that stands out. It seems as if the owner hasnt paid because the website is currently getting a loading error. I have tried loading on multiple devices with different internet options.

It's a bummer because I was trying to buy some beans from them.
