Backerkit will not charge you unless the campaign reaches its funding goal.
You can change your pledge amount at any time before the campaign ends.
Surveys will be sent out once the campaign has completed so you can pick which designs you would like.
You will receive updates on production and fulfillment as they progress, through your Backerkit email or the Community tab on the campaign page.
Once backers have received their pledges, any extras will be available after the campaign; but at a higher price. Missed the campaign or can't pledge? See the Survey section for more details on how else to get the pins.
Pledge Level Discounts
Please note that the pledge levels for six pins and above have access to discounted pin addons. The discount will not be applied retroactively if you purchase pin addons, you must switch pledge levels; but you will be able to switch pledge levels in the survey if you change your mind later. The discounted addon is available only during the campaign.
Pins will be hard enamel except where noted otherwise.
Pins come with backing cards and rubber clutches.
Each pin will have at least two pin posts unless otherwise specified.

Want a reward for your hard work?
Well we have the thing for you! When you finish three or more quests (pledge to three or more campaigns) you will get a Reward from each one! This can range from spell bottles, to books, to companions, to anything we think will help you as you travel. Here's the Pin Quest reward from this campaign:
Looking for more campaigns to pledge to? Check out these other Pin Quest campaigns below!
Rewards will ship via USPS with tracking. Be sure to check your address is correct, replacements or refunds will not be given if you provide the wrong shipping address.
Shipping will be charged after the campaign, when items are ready to ship. Please note that the pledge amount during the campaign does not include shipping cost.
Once items ship, they will take about 1-2 weeks to arrive for domestic (US) backers, and 4-6 weeks for international backers.
Noticefor international backers: Backers are responsible for any customs fees or taxes that may be placed on international orders. No refunds or replacements will be given if your package is lost or returned to sender as a result of not paying these fees. International mail service has been suspended for some countries. Backers are responsible for confirming if service is suspended. If I am unable to ship to you I will refund your pledge, minus any fees and taxes.
I have added new reduced shipping rates for international destinations! These rates are lower than in my shops or previous campaigns; however they do not include insurance and shipping time may be extended by 1-4 weeks. If you prefer the previous shipping method, an upgrade will be available in the post-campaign survey/preorder store to switch to that instead.
Shipping will be flat rate. Shipping prices, which will be added after the campaign in the post-campaign survey, are available below:
Once the campaign ends, surveys will be sent out for backers to choose their pins and other goodies. These surveys will be sent to your Backerkit email, so please make sure you are able to access that email. We will be using Backerkit to coordinate rewards.
Using Backerkit, you can add to your pledge if there are additional campaign items you'd like; or preorder pins if you missed the campaign. However, it's best to pledge for them during the campaign to help unlock goals.
Once pins are in-hand and ready to ship, backers will receive photos of the pins and will be allowed to make changes to their survey if desired. If there are an insufficient number of pins or other items to accommodate these changes, you may receive a B-grade pin, be asked to select a different item, or have your pledge delayed several months while more are manufactured. At this time, campaign backers and preorder backers will be charged for any addons via Backerkit. Please see the Timeline section for an estimate of when pins will ship.
How the Survey Works
The first part consists of survey questions: where you answer survey questions depending on your pledge level. In this example I have pledged for one pin and I select it from the available options in the dropdown menu. Only the designs shown on the campaign page will be available from this menu. If I pledged for two pins, I’d answer two questions with a selection, and so on.
Example survey question from Angelology IV.
The second part is the survey addons: where you can select your addons and purchase additional merch. It is in this section that other designs will be up for preorder, depending on order quantity.
Missed the campaign?
Once the campaign has ended, a Backerkit preorder store will be opened for a limited time. To track the campaign progress, preorder backers are recommended to keep an eye on the campaign page to see what updates are being posted; or subscribe to my social media to see previews of the items when I have received them.
Once pins are in-hand and ready to ship, preorder backers will be charged for any addons via Backerkit. Please see the Timeline section for an estimate of when pins will ship.
Once the preorder store closes, you will need to wait until post-campaign leftovers are available.
After backers have received their rewards, any leftovers will be made available with my stockists, but at a higher price. International shipping to most destinations is available through some of my stockists.
If you have any issues with your survey or other urgent concerns: please contact Backerkit support. Backerkit support will forward your message to my email. Do not message me on my shops, social media, or comment on the campaign page - if you do that I may miss your message or lose track of it (feel free to comment for any non-urgent issues of course).
Manufacturing times are approximate and delays are possible. Backers will be notified if there are any unexpected delays, updates, or other issues.
Design changes may be made depending on pin design. This may include adjustments to colors and linework. I will do my best to produce pins that match these designs as closely as possible. Differences between the final items and the mockups are to be expected.
I will be using USPS to ship backer rewards. International mail service has been suspended for some countries. Backers are responsible for confirming if service is suspended. Backers are responsible for any customs fees. Refunds/replacements will not be provided if a package is rejected by customs and lost, as a result of failure to pay these fees. Please see the Shipping section for more information. If I am unable to ship to you I will refund your pledge, minus any Backerkit fees and taxes.
Exchanges or replacements may be offered on a case-by-case basis. Backers are responsible for return shipping. For my complete pin grading policy, please see my About Page.
