The boats are on the water! In fact, they've been traveling for several days, and the container ship that's carrying our precious Han Cluster books, cards, and maps to the US should be arriving at the port of Los Angeles LATER THIS WEEK.
The ship bound for the UK is also on the water and is circling around South Africa as we speak.. It should arrive at port in about two and a half more weeks.
There are still several hoops to jump through: unloading, customs (and tariffs), and then the freight shipment from the respective ports to our office in Tucson and our partner distribution center in the UK, but the time is getting VERY close.
Shipping Is Being Finalized
This is all a long winded way of saying that individual shipments to backers are coming VERY soon. We're finalizing the shipping tables in BackerKit, and we will charge shipping only AFTER the product is past customs in the US. After that, we will send another update warning that charges for shipping are imminent, and then we will charge your cards based on where you're located, etc.
Shipping Estimates These are not finalized yet, but here's a rough idea of what to expect for shipping a single All-In physical pledge (prices in US dollars, and again, it depends on where you are, and we'll be doing another "reality check" to get final numbers before we actually make the charges.).
Anywhere in the US (shipping late November / early December): Around $13-$15
Canada (shipping late November / early December): Around $25-$30
Anywhere in the UK (shipping mid-December / early January): Around $13-$15
Austria, Belgium, Czechia, Germany, Denmark, France, French Guiana, Hungary, Lithuania, Luxembourg, Netherlands, Poland, Portugal, Slovakia (shipping mid-December / early January): Around $25
Bulgaria, Estonia, Spain, Finland, Croatia, Ireland, Italy, Latvia, Romania, Sweden, Slovenia (shipping mid-December / early January): Around $29.
New Zealand (shipping late November / early December): Around $65
Again, these reflect an "All-In" pledge and may be slight less if you just got a single book, etc. We will be looking at all this and finalizing one more time before we go live with the shipping charges, but this should be very close. We will update you BEFORE we charge the cards, which we anticipate will be in another week or so.
Tell Your Friends!
It's been a long and amazing journey, and we are so excited to get this product into your hands. We really think you'll be blown away by the quality and beauty of these books and components. We're really very proud of them. If you have any friends or fellow gamers who you think would be interested in Han Cluster, we have plenty of product to sell. Just point them toward the BackerKit PreOrder store (which will soon be just ... an Order store). This is the best way to support us, as our transaction fees are much less when you order from there. It's also the ONLY way to get the physical product!
Thank you all for your support, and we can't wait to start shipping your rewards to you!
