I'm pitching June 30th as the survey/order lock date as that will also be the date that the preorder store closes!
This would be a Monday, and that following Friday, July 4th, would be the day that cards are charged for the shipping and any add-ons separate from initial pledge amounts.
I wanted to pitch this here to see if anyone has any issues with that being a lock date! Ultimately, nothing is last-chance but to ensure I can get every mass order sorted sooner than later, I would need some more accurate numbers overall. For people who haven't finished surveys by then, upon completion, they would be able to be locked in shortly after. I've also been able to sort individual pledges and add-ons via email so nothing is absolutely last chance and I can help with errors and swaps etc. :)
If there's anything super wrong with the above dates, definitely let me know what's up in the comments here! If there's enough concern, I'll definitely try to shift those dates around.
ONTO THE FUN PART :D
Here's some print tests on the fabric for the inserts! the lighting is a little low in the photos but they look so crisp and bright! I can't wait to see them in the bags :D
Also I know a lot of people were wondering about the pink and silver zipper variants, these aren't completed but here is a better example of the colors of the pleather + print here: Silver is getting somewhat of an 'inverted' look because the shine of the silver pleather would flush out a white print overall.
Also from the previous WIPs of the wallet sample, the custom zipper was missing but here's a photo of what it looks like! I think it turned out so perfect! I'm still working with the manufacturer on some small changes on the retro canvas bag but overall, everything else has been given the thumbs up!
I'm so pleased with this process, I hope you all are excited as well! :D
