Here's the update you've been patiently waiting for, the pledge manager is officially live! 🎉
Pledge Manager
You should have already received an email from Allplay with instructions on how to confirm your pledge, select any add-ons, and make sure everything is just right before fulfillment.
This is our first time partnering with Allplay for fulfillment, and we’re really excited about what they bring to the table. That said, with any new system, there may be a few bumps along the way—we appreciate your patience as we work through everything together.
If you didn’t receive your email, need help accessing your pledge, or want to adjust your pledge level, you can reach out directly to: [email protected]
Surplus of Sleeves
Do you like sleeving your card games? You may find it hard to find sleeves for these specific sized cards in Surplus of Sloths , that's why we made the Surplus of Sleeves! For only $5 more you can upgrade your Surplus of Sloths to include a Surplus of Sleeves in the pledge manager. These sleeves are premium and specialty made to fit the business card like size of the Surplus of Sloths Cards! Don't worry - the box is sized to fit sleeved cards.
Shipping Costs and Taxes
It was a very tough year as tariffs shifted the freight and shipping costs around wildly. We decided to adopt Allplay's value shipping costs - the same shipping costs you would see from any of Allplay's campaigns. You can bundle more Weird Giraffe Games, Allplay games, and other partner games together to get some serious subsidized shipping! Allplay will automatically handle charging any necessary taxes and remitting them to your local government. This means your package should arrive customs-friendly with no surprises on delivery by a company known for consistently delivering games for years.
Freight Update
Great news—Surplus of Sloths is already arriving at regional fulfillment hubs! It's in the AU, CA, EU, and UK. It's on the boat bound for the USA. Things are moving quickly, and we’re excited to start getting copies into your hands soon! The great part of working with Allplay is they will be able to start sending orders as soon as they receive copies at fulfillment hubs!
Sloth Pins Update:
The Sloth Pins are running a little behind schedule and are expected to arrive at fulfillment hubs by the end of April. Here's what the final pin will look like:
Sloth Stickers Update
This past year has been very tough for us. Unfortunately we had to make a tough decision to cancel the Sloth sticker pack add-on. If you added this on during the campaign, you'll find that your credit is available in the pledge manager to contribute towards your shipping fees. I apologize that I was unable to deliver on that add-on.
Thank you again for supporting Surplus of Sloths—we’re getting closer to those sloths splashing into rivers everywhere 🦥💦
