Project FAQ
Mammoth Fabrics is a mission that began when we identified a need in our own day to day as artists. High quality faux fur that has consistent color, is in stock, and arrives as soon as we need it. By specializing in scientific color measurement and historical swatch tracking as a key part of our QC process, and a strong background in international logistics, we hope to eliminate the gamble on dye lots and waiting game that has become all too common for plush makers, cosplayers, and craftspeople like us. Our goal is to enable artists, creatives, and producers to make art and experiences without ever having to second guess the materials they use.
This crowdfund will allow us to fully launch our Faux Fur brand by giving us the final boost needed to purchase the first run of faux fur from our manufacturer!
We will not launch! This is a do-or-die campaign, guaranteeing your money back if we don't meet our goal!
We will be launching with 3 lengths to start; Flokati, Fox, and Teddy! If we obtain solid funding, and long term support we plan to expand into more lengths and materials also color matched for consistency!
We plan to launch in the Americas with multiple shipping options available for international customers!
Chicago, IL, USA!
We have invested in a spectrophotometer to measure each of our fabrics against a control fabric and historical swatches to ensure the colors are consistent within a strict threshold across runs/restocks.
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.
