I was wondering where you're manufacturing/printing the card decks and the enamel pins? And what the timeline for shipping looks like? And will you be notifying us of any cost difference with terrifs for the US before you lock the address/charge taxes/fees? Depending on costs, I'd want to change my address to family's in Canada or India to pick up when I visit. Thanks!
This is the most beautiful deck I've ever seen, I can't wait to give these as gifts!!
Kia Ora- Just wanted to start a community dialog around how backers might be able to help ease any tariff burdens, and encourage Levity Games to consider that at least some of your backers might be willing to chip in to ease any tariffs that might still be in place when you get ready to ship (or rather when the slow boat finally arrives stateside). Or maybe it's all mute as you can actually source US playing card printers more easily than standard table top games? If you had already planned on a now tariffed printing partner, perhaps open up a 'tariff tip jar' in the campaign manager with a transparent window into the added burden per copy? Maybe you could even dream up a special add-on pledge manager 'tariff card' that we can 'buy' that serves as the offset--perhaps offer up a true, extra orange hued joker fox with wild hair?! As for me personally (not sure who else this might randomly apply to) I'm a US citizen who now lives in New Zealand. I usually find it's cheaper to ship my crowdfunding games to my US address--aka my parents!--and wait to pick them up on my regular Xmas visit home. However, would it help to change my shipping for this campaign to New Zealand or does it nor matter if your entire distribution ultimately flows through a US port of call first? Regardless, just want to say your backers are in your corner and hoping you can weather this unexpected disruption with as little stress as possible. Cheers, Bret the Kiwi

These are so gorgeous, I had to edit my pledge and switch up from two decks to a half dozen just because! It's great to see the money will be funding Brielle's studies as well. I read through the page twice (maybe I still just missed it) but is there an estimated timeline for production and shipping? Also, are the shipping estimates per deck or per package (since I'm pledging for the half dozen)?
Any chance you could include the number and suit in all 4 corners? This makes it easier to splay the cards if you are left-handed. It's also makes it matter less for play if some of the cards are upside down when shuffled.
