Surveys are finally being sent now. You should receive yours between today and tomorrow. We are sending first a couple of test surveys to make sure that everything is correct.
When you receive the email, just click on its link to complete the survey with your Backerkit account. In the survey you will be able to pick what pins you want and add extra add-ons (like the Vampi Pin or the sticker set) if you wish. You will also be asked to fill in your shipping address, but you will not be charged for shipping yet. We will charge shipping a bit later, closer to fulfilment.
Surveys are open for a couple of weeks. After you submit it, you will still be able to go back and change your answers. We will send an update when they are about to close. So no stress!
We have been working on preparing our surveys, and we plan to start sending them by the end of this first week of March.
In the meanwhile, or if you missed the campaign, we have opened up our Pre-order shop for a limited time, here, in Backerkit.
With it, we decided to give another chance to the 'Vampi' Fluffypede Pin, and we have added it as a stretch goal add-on in the Pre-order shop. It will be unlocked if we get at least 10 units ordered.
And we have also added a new 'Flufflock' Vinyl Sticker add-on. Now we have one sticker for each of the 6 main Fluffipedes. And with that we are also adding one add-on: a set of the 6 stickers at a discount!
Both 'Vampi' Fluffypede Pin and the new Sticker and 6 Sticker set will also be added to the surveys.
With these surveys and in the pre-order shop we will not be charging shipping yet. We will do it later, closer to fulfillment.
Finally, the Pre-order shop will only be open for a couple of weeks. Don't miss it!
A short update this time: we have found a reliable partner to help us with fulfilment to US, so we will be able to reduce the shipping costs quite a lot! The exact rates will depend on how many backers and where you all are, but we estimate something around 12$.
Here is the new updated table. As you can see, we have also updated the estimates for UK to be in the local currency.
Updated shipping estimates
We are super happy that our Fluffypedes can now reach more easily those of you in the States. Hoping that they get many cosy homes across the pond!
Honest talk: We were hoping that our campaign would be doing better by now. So we sat down, reviewed our campaign, gathered some feedback, and decided to make some changes. Our goal is to make our offers and pledge levels more fair and attractive. (Our final final goal is to make the World More Fluffy. Yei!)
Bigger Pins!!!
First off, we have updated our Pin Specs. We had originally settled for 1" size for the pins. This came also from the manufacturer that we were planning to use. But we have realized that they are too small, and our Fluffypedes deserve to be shown bigger. So our Fluffypede pins will now be between 1.25" to 1.5" inch in length! We have also made it clearer that the material would be Shiny black Iron. (No change in price!)
New achievements and freebies
We are also adding new achievements based on the amount of pledges. When we reach 25, 50 pledges and so on, we will add a free Vinyl sticker to all pledges (except the €1 Support pledge). These Stickers will be based in the "Toymaker's Tools", and the first one, unlocking at 25 pledges, will be the Thread:
New pledge level
We are adding a new pledge level: 6 Pins at the price of 5. Like the "3 Pin" pledge, it will also include a free "Party" Vinyl Sticker. And, of course, all the freebies unlocked through Achievements.
New Add-ons
Finally, more sticker add-ons will be added to the campaign. They will join the already available 'Spotter' sticker:
Thanks a lot for reading until here. Is there anything you would like to see added for this campaign? Let us know in the comments! Any feedback is welcome.
