Very Conservative
Pitched them because we had heard good things about them from the likes of Fred Wilson but ultimately came out unimpressed.

Unfortunatley, You Should Steer Clear
I've held my breath on this one for a while, but we wasted an incredible amount of time with NYC Seed. They are much celebrated by the NY political and funding communities (eg. by Fred Wilson, who I respect very much), but the low friction, fast up / down process that is promised was anything but fast or low friction. In fact, we very nearly lost our opportunity to raise good money *because* of NYC Seed. If you value your time, do not spend it here. They are a firing squad.

Strange and Unclear Investment Style
I was reminded of NYC Seed from this post a entrepreneur they invested in whose company ran out of money wrote: <a href="http://www.thisisgoingtobebig.com/2009/10/unintentional-benefits-and-a-test-for-nyc-seed.html" target="_blank">http://www.thisisgoingtobebig.com/200...</a>
