Hi there everyone!! I am finally able to give you guys an update with photos regarding the pins!
It took awhile to get photos this time of the samples and production, plus they only gave me so many so I apologize about that! We are still in the sampling phase as well, trying to make sure the colors look as close to what I was hoping for and showed in the mock-ups.
I just wanted to give a general update to you all currently on this Backerkit campaign. I am currently waiting on updates from my manufacture to see progress photos and samples regarding the pins from this campaign. Once I get some, I will make an update as soon as I can with that!
The major other thing I wanted to talk about: Tariffs.
Sadly, as many of you probably already know about, the US is dealing with insane tariffs currently. Due to this, there may be some delays with this project in the future. Currently, the pins have already been put into production before the new 145% tariff was placed. Depending on the situation with tariffs when the pins are finished, I will have to decide on how I will be going about this project and receiving/shipping out the pins. I will be sure to keep you guys updated once we get closer to that, but I just wanted to at least let you guys know now that there is a chance of delays and price increases.
Other than that, I hope you guys have a wonderful rest of the week and I hope to update you guys again soon!
I just wanted to give a small update, letting you all know that on Monday, March 24th; I will be locking orders. This is so I can order enough items according to what everyone filled out in their survey.
This will NOT be charging or locking your address. This will only be locking the answers and add-ons you selected in your survey or anyone who preordered items through the preorder shop. If you would like to change anything, please do so before they get locked as you will not be able to change them afterwards.
So far, everyone who's payment went through has filled out their surveys!! Only a few people have not filled them out, but have also not had their payment go through. I will be canceling any pledges that have been sent a survey and not corrected their payment info by Monday.
Once all orders are locked, everything will get sent into production! My next update will hopefully showcase some samples and work in progress pictures of everything for you guys <33
Payments for pledges have mostly been processed, but there is currently 7 failed payments! You should have received an email from Backerkit letting you know if your pledge was successful or if it failed, so please double check your email to see. I have also sent out an email to those whose payment has failed, letting them know so they can fix their payments.
Right now, I believe you have until the 27th of February to update your payment method so your pledge is successful. Pledges that are still unsuccessfully collected after that point will be cancelled and not receive any items.
- Smoke Tests -
The smoke tests have been sent out earlier to just a few people from each tier! After those have been filled out, I will double check to make sure nothing is wrong with the survey. If everything looks good, the rest of the surveys will be sent out to everyone else who backed!
If you guys have any questions, feel free to leave a comment or email me! Thank you guys for everything~
Thank you guys sosososooooo much for the support on this campaign!!
I was genuinely so shocked and happy with just how many of you wanted to support this little project of mine!! This really pushes me to try and make more original stuff in the future <33
With the campaign now over, I will be opening up a Preorder Store ! This is for those who might've missed out on the campaign, but would still like to get these items while they are still at a crowd-funding discount.
Please note: If you have already pledged to this campaign DO NOT PREORDER from this shop. You will be able to add on any additional items through your survey once those are sent.
Surveys should be sent in the next week! I will be sending out a smoke test first to a few pledges, then the rest will come after that~
If you guys have any questions, feel free to leave a comment or email me! Thank you guys again for all the support, these pins wouldn't exist without you guys ♡ ♡
