PROJECT UPDATE
Project Update: where I've been: tldr very sick
Hello everyone,
First one I want to apologise for poofing. I've been very sick both physically and mentally. I made some very stupid choices which luckily didn't succeed. Whilst I won't go into detail, as I'm sure most of you understand what I'm implying, I do want to take a moment to remind everyone to please reach out to your friends, family or even your countries services if you are in a dark place.
I have basically just been in recovery mode, some days I get stuff done some days I don't. It's all been a lot. I have definitely been avoiding saying anything as it's idk embarrassing? I guess. Shameful
I know this has all taken a lot longer than planned, and I know that's a disappointment to a lot of you. I never intended for it to take so long. I am slowly working through the packages on the days I can so you should all start seeing them arrive soon.
After everything is done I'm taking a big long break to let my self fully recover and be better.

PROJECT UPDATE
Project Update: Tariff Updates: Prepaid Duties!!
Hello everyone,
Short update from me!
All parcels are packed, i just didn't get them out before the postal services shut off access to America,
HOWEVER
Both Royal Mail and Transglobal express have introduced prepaid duty options for shipping! this means all tariffs paid up front (its working out about £1-2.50) extra on most parcels and marked as prepaid. This means they should get to you totally fine. For future campaigns you'll see this fee added onto your shipping at checkout but for existing campaigns im just gonna foot the bill.
Thank you all for your patience again!

PROJECT UPDATE
Project Update: August Update
Hello everyone i hope we are all well
I'm still packing and sending orders out BUT tariffs have suddenly become a thing to be worried about again :> honestly whats said now might not even be what happens at the end of the month but we'll have to take it as it is for the moment.
As i ship from the uk post 29th one of a few things happens, the most likely is import fees relative to the uk + items shipped.
Obviously i know this isn't ideal and as such i want to try and get ALL my projects out by the end of the month,
I've put a poll below for you to vote on to do with this
what currently takes me the longest is the packaging, backing the pins, wrapping the pins etc etc what i can do to speed up the process is drop the unnecessary niceness and simple ship the pins (and extras) in a bubble mailer without the extra. This does speed things up for me as i can just bag and label and go. This is currently what i would prefer to do but if its not everyones preference i'll continue to do the extra bit.
thank you all for your patience, i know things are taking a bit longer than i expected. Life do be life ya know.

PROJECT UPDATE
Project Update: July update: remake arrived!
Hello everyone, sorry for the quietness there hasn't been much to update!
The unit 01 remake finally arrived so I'm settling in to shipping this project now!
I've updated my bio here on backerkit with a status tracker and my email if you ever need to ask questions! A lot of my backerkit notifications get lost to junk and spam :/
