I only backed for the pdf. I don't need to pay shipping cost. Yes shipping is expensive. I once paid 25 dollars to mail something to Italy (full sized piece of paper) so the envelope was larger, and considered a type of 'package', not a letter. Yet, this and other stupid high shipping costs were reality long before the tariffs and so I am not doubting the shipping cost is accurate. I need the shipping cost removed to complete my pledge confirmation though, as I didn't back for the physical product, only the pdf. Did we already get our PDF copies? Are they going to drivethrurpg? or were they going to be via Download on this backerlit or were they simply sent to our emails. Once the shipping cost is removed I will complete my survey. Remember the best type of cult is the one that never was. Unless they become an established religion and take over society.
