Project Update: SMOKE TEST SURVEYS OUT! :)

Smoke test surveys have been sent out! 5% of backers at each pledge level should have received a survey as of this update - please fill those out ASAP, as I'd like to receive most of those back before I send out the rest of the surveys. 

THIS WILL BE YOUR FINAL WARNING THAT YOUR LAST DAY TO FIX FAILED PAYMENTS IS WEDNESDAY, THE 18TH, IN TWO DAYS. If I do not receive payment, I will be unable to remit your rewards.

This is also a reminder that unless you have pledged for a pin, or added an add-on item to your cart in the survey (or during the campaign), any $1 tier pledges do not qualify for any freebies, including early bird or return backer freebies. Any item added on qualifies you for return backer & early bird freebies, and any item total at the same value as a standard pin ($15) qualifies you for Early Summerween pin set freebies. 

Things to keep in mind:

  • If you purchase locking or magnetic pin backs, please be aware that the deluxe pin will have AT LEAST 3 pin backs, possibly more - my manufacturer will be confirming the final number of posts prior to production. You will need at least 2 sets of magnetic or locking pin backs to secure it fully!
  • Pins from previous campaigns are available for purchase! Peets 'n' Beans paws are only available via gacha, but all others are available a-la-carte. If there is interest in Popsicle Panic gacha options, I will be happy to add those - I've attached a poll to this update for you to vote on! There will be 3 machines available, with between 9 and 10 of the designs in each.
  • I have a question at the very beginning of the survey where you can opt into having your card charged IMMEDIATELY vs waiting until closer to August when pins will likely ship. I did this last campaign and it was a popular option, so I brought it back again - please choose whichever option fits better for your financial situation :) 
  • There are FOUR pin sets available to add to your cart that will ONLY be charged if they are funded: Pastel Potions (which has a lower number of people needed to fund, as it was only partially un-funded due to failed payments)
  • Finally and very importantly - I will be adding an additional tariff line item this week, hopefully before the remainder of surveys go out. This is a NEW feature backerkit has introduced that allows me to split the cost of any tariffs equitably between those who ordered pins once I know how much that cost will be. They have let me know I am able to charge this separately from any shipping/add-ons etc. charges, so that if there aren't any tariffs (fingers crossed!) then I will not need to add any charges on. The total cost will be split between folks depending on the # of pins they ordered, so those who ordered only 1 pin will pay a smaller amount than those who ordered more. I do not anticipate this amount being greater than a few dollars per person, given how my manu has explained to me in the past. I will keep you all up to date on the status of this specific topic as I learn more!

I believe that should cover everything important - if you have any issues with the surveys, feel free to comment below, or reach out to me via social media, my e-mail address ([email protected]) or via my facebook group or discord server!
