Project FAQ
Pintober is a collaborative project between a varied cast of pin artists. All artists in the project are providing free mini pins to backers who back 3 or more projects in the collab! It's just like trick or treating: knock on the doors of the other projects to see all the wonderfully spooky and/or sweet pins and back 3 (or more!) projects to qualify for 3 (or more!) free treat pins, one from each artist. Plus, you might discover your new favorite pin artist!
You will be able to change your address up until February 2025, so no need to worry! If you end up moving after addresses lock, you can always message me to change the address on my end.
Fulfillment is expected to happen around March-April of 2025. If any delays in the schedule occur, I will inform all backers immediately, as well as providing regular updates on the status of the project!
The hosts of Haunted Dream House are Elizabeth (orange) and Alma (purple). While their choice of business goth attire may be somewhat unconventional in the realty industry, they are both qualified to serve as real estate agents. Also as ghost wranglers, but that kind of comes with the territory of dealing in haunted houses. Elizabeth can see ghosts and Alma can talk to them, so you won't need any EMF detectors or ghost cameras to confirm hauntings at any houses you check out.
The free cookie pin is about 1 inch or 25 mm across.
Nope! The only way to get it, for now, will be through the collaboration. I can't guarantee that there will be stock left over after fulfillment for regular sales, but you can check my shop after fulfillment is over to see if you're in luck. To guarantee getting the pin, participating in the collaboration is pretty much the only way.
Nope! While I took inspiration from a variety of real houses in specific architectural styles, none of the pins depict a real house that exists somewhere. Which is probably good, because they're all kind of run down...
Nope! All the houses for sale through Haunted Dream House are cash-only, sold as-is. They probably wouldn't qualify for a loan anyway, what with all the damage and... the ghosts.
BackerKit FAQ
BackerKit Crowdfunding is an all-or-nothing collaborative funding platform. Creators share their project ideas and set a funding goal with a deadline. Backers pledge money to help make the project possible.
If the project meets its goal by the deadline, pledges are charged and the creator moves forward. If it doesn’t, no one is charged.
Backers often receive special rewards for their support, such as:
- Exclusive products
- Bonus rewards for backing related projects
- Discount pricing
- Behind-the-scenes updates
- Creative input opportunities
Pledging in crowdfunding is a commitment to support the creation of a new product or project. Unlike a traditional purchase, you're not buying an item that already exists. Instead, your contribution helps bring a creative idea to life, and in return, you typically receive rewards (such as the product itself) as a thank you for your early support.
- Select a pledge level with the reward(s) you would like to receive
- Select any add-ons
- Confirm your pledge!
- You are charged only if the campaign meets its funding goal.
- Charges happen when the campaign ends, not when you pledge.
The creator will send you a survey to:
- Ask you for more information about your rewards (selecting options, etc)
- Collect shipping information
- Offer additional items you may want to add to your pledge
- Collect shipping fees (if applicable)
The survey will be sent to the email address we have on file with your pledge. Additional payments are charged when you complete the survey.
Only the project creator and the BackerKit Support Team can see your pledge and contact information. Other backers and the public cannot see your individual pledge amount or personal details.
You can change or adjust your pledge level and add-ons before the campaign ends. After the project concludes, cancellations or changes are at the creator's discretion and may depend on what stage the project is in.
Overtime Mode extends your campaign past its original end time to give backers a final chance to make their pledge. It will add an additional 10 minutes past the end time as long as pledges keep coming in. The campaign will end when there is a 10-minute period without any new pledges.
