📦Please note that if you haven't been charged yet for shipping, chances are that you will be charged for this in the near future!

• 🇪🇺🌍 EU/Intl. Backers – I'm slowly shipping out all eligible orders over the course of the month, so please keep an eye out for your inbox for a shipping notification! As stated above, if you haven't been charged yet for shipping, please expect to get charged this Sunday (July 12th). If you aren't able to pay the shipping charges at that time, please let me know in advance by emailing me to [email protected] so I can note this down and when it will be possible for you so I can get to shipping your pledge out ASAP. ☺️

• 🇺🇸 USA Backers – I plan to ship out some more pledges sometime next week or the week afterwards once I see/hear that the test shipments have gone well, so hopefully this is plenty of time for those who have yet to be charged. If your pledge includes a plushie that has solely Cotton or Cherry (or both), then chances are your pledge might get picked to get shipped in the upcoming small batch. I'm hoping to be able to post another mini update this month, likely near the end of it!
  
  As stated above, if you're unable to pay the shipping charges in the upcoming weeks, please send me an email and when it is possible for you so I can note it down.

 🇺🇸  USA Backers – A kind reminder if you want your pledge sooner

As mentioned in previous updates, the tariffs/customs and import fees are being paid out of pocket. Covering these costs feels like the right thing to do after things have dragged on for so long, so I certainly don't expect the people who supported me and this project to pay more than what was expected.

However, this means that fulfillment of your pledge can take longer than initially anticipated since the tariff costs ended up being higher than the estimate that was communicated with us. Please feel free to email me if you don't mind paying these costs (which, depending on the volume and contents on your pledge, should be within a range of around €2 minimum to €10+) so you can get your pledge shipped out sooner. I'll provide a screenshot of the actual calculated costs and we can arrange the payment afterwards.

Again, this is entirely optional and it's only if you wish to get your pledge shipped out quicker. If you're fine with waiting a bit longer due to the above mentioned reason, then there's nothing you need to do, however I - for full transparency - cannot give a guaranteed estimate as to when I'll ship out your pledge since the fees all piled together can be very costly (especially for plushies), so I'm trying my best to things shipped it out as soon as I can since this is an unexpected added expense on my end.
