Meowdy!!

I've gotten back just above half of the smoke test surveys, fixed a small thing and now I think I'm ready to send them all out!! Just want to put out a few reminders first! 

• The survey needs to be filled out ASAP. Without it I canNOT send you your rewards. 
• you have 30 days to complete the survey. I will lock orders around AUG 15th. There are no refunds after this date. 
• Early bird and returning backer freebie stickers are already included in your rewards automatically. 
• The Space Case freebie sticker is included automatically with EVERYONE'S rewards. (There is an option to buy extras if you want to though)
• Those who qualify for the free mini pin, it's automatically included in your rewards. 

Hello!

I'm back from my work weekend away and am diving right into things! I've just sent out the smoke test surveys. Once I get those back and see they're all good, I'll be sending out the rest.

Please remember that these are MANDATORY to fill out. Without a filled out survey I canNOT fulfill your pledge and send you your rewards!! Please fill these out ASAP!

Once I have all the surveys in, I'll be locking orders. This will be around the 15th of August. This gives you 30 days to complete the survey. A reminder that once orders are locked there are NO refunds. 
With orders locked, I can then go forth and contact my manufacturers to start making all the rewards! 

So far we're on track with the timeline I've set up: 

• June 10th: campaign launches
• June 26th : campaign ends
• ~July 15th: surveys sent out
• August 15th: survey submission deadline
• September: contact manufacturers and begin pin production*
• October-November: grading & other fulfillment processing
• Late Nov/Dec-Jan: fulfillment and shipping (Also, international backers outside of BK)
  
  
  

Hey everyone!

What an amazing journey these past few weeks were!! Because of you and your outstanding support, I get to bring these pin designs to life and get them to you to enjoy!! 

So...

What's next?? 

• So now backerkit will take the next few days to collect the funds. You'll get an email on whether your pledge was processed or not. If it wasn't, please get that corrected ASAP please and thank you! 

• *I'm hoping to get the surveys out mid July, about 2-ish weeks or so after payments are finished processing. 
• Please fill this out ASAP. Without the survey completed I canNOT complete your order. I need this information to send you your rewards!!
• Shipping and any other add-ons you may want will be processed at this time. This is a separate charge from the pledge itself. 
• Those who have used Pay Over Time will receive their surveys once the balance is paid in full. 

• I'll be working on getting this open soon for those who missed out on the campaign but still wanted some items. 
• backers don't need to visit the store. All the items will be in your survey to choose from and will save you from being charged twice on shipping. 

• After the surveys are all completed I can get a count of how much to order of each item. 
• I'm hoping to start ordering around mid August. 
• With any luck I'll have add-ons to me by September and pins before November. *fingers crossed theres no delays* 
• Then I can start shipping them to you! 
• Again, timeline can vary depending on delays and manufacturing

• Once you've completed the survey, I'll l message you directly via email confirming your rewards and also how much your subtotal will be. Please make sure your BackerKit email is one you have access to and use often.
• I will then set up a custom reserved Etsy listing for you.
• Once I'm ready to ship, I will email you a link to your custom listing for you to purchase. Etsy will collect VAT and shipping costs.

• Once orders are locked, about 30 days after the end of the campaign, refunds will no longer be accepted. 
• Surveys that are not filled out and completed will forfeit your rewards and will not be eligible for refunds. 

Beyond Zodicats

• July is going to be very busy for me, as I'm sure you're tired of me stating. I have back to back conventions and a huge cross country trip to help a friend move that's been in the works for over a year now. So if things are a bit delayed or my responses are absent, I apologize. 
• The best way to reach me is by reaching out to my email [email protected]. 

Hello hello!!

What comes after the campaigns end?

• Once the campaign is over, I'll be sending out Surveys. When that will be, I don't exactly know right now due to all the reasons stated above. I WILL be working on them as much as I can, when I can, to get them out to you as soon as possible. 

• Once the surveys are out, you need to fill them out! Without the completed survey I canNOT send you your rewards. This is the stage where I collect all the information I need to get you your rewards! 

• Those who are using Pay Over Time; this is my first time using this system. Please bare with me as I learn how to navigate fulfillment. You WILL have to pay in full to receive your rewards. 

Remember 

• I will be accepting refund requests up to 30 days after the end of the campaign. After 30 days I will not be accepting refunds. Once orders are locked in, there will be no refunds or exchanges given. Should your order be damaged in transit to you, please take photos and contact me at [email protected] to see what can be done.
