Hello all! We are just about 50% through fulfillment! I have to thank you all for your patience as this was my first foray into fulfillment and boy was 1,000+ orders a learning curve! We've nailed our methods down now so we should have consistent batches of packages going out each week, and I definitely will NOT print that many labels at once so tracking should be updating within a week!
I also just hired my first EMPLOYEE!! They have been a MASSIVE help with order packing so it should only be smooth sailing from here on out! Here's my plan for the rest of it;
Ship the remaining ~400 domestic orders Ship all intl, orders WITHOUT pick a face or extra weight Domestic pick a face/extra weight orders Intl. pick a face/extra weight orders
And finally, unfortunately I am no longer offering refunds at this point in the campaign. I was operating with a no-questions asked refund policy but it is no longer econimical for me to do that given that I am a small business and cannot afford random large refunds :') I hope y'all can understand! I've updated the FAQ section of all my projects to outline my refund policy now so there aren't any surprises in future campaigns. You can see the new refund information here
Hello everyone small followup- I am shipping out using Pirateship and they are emailing tracking to everyone for me! I've seen a few folks getting spooked by Pirateship's emails so just letting you know they are legit and they have your tracking for this campaign :)
At long last the dinosaurs are all here safe and sound and my partner and I are packing furiously! The first 15 or so pick a face emails have gone out as well and so far only 3 people have responded so please keep your eyes peeled for that and check your spam folder!! I've scheduled weekly pickups from USPS so the first batch will be hitting the road this Friday 9/4 and the rest the following weeks :D
' My partner has been very hard at work pre-bagging all the extra weight so it'll be easier for me to get it done! She's already gotten through 300lbs of beads by hand :)
The dinos have officially released from the port and are on a truck headed to me!! Maybe we'll see them on Monday!!
I am going to start charging shipping now so we'll be ready to fulfill! I'm starting with US backers since those are simpler, and charges for international backers may take an extra second as I figure out my international taxes :')
Everything else is ready to go! I got my 800lbs of beads, neck tags and string, and shipping materials all ready to go! 800lbs of glass beads is also surprisingly smaller than you'd expect! Each of those little boxes is 50lbs!
Hey guys! Since the dinosaurs are getting close, I am getting ready to start charging shipping! Your order cannot be shipped out until the shipping charge goes through. Addresses will also be locking after a final 48 hour notice once shipping is approved! If you're wondering what shipping may be, here's the graphic again! I redid all the weights so it may be slightly less across the board :)
FINALLY!! I have the tracking number as well so I can continue to monitor their arrival! I apologize for the delay in getting another update out, I have been waiting until I had an actual DATE to give you all! After they hit the port, they'll have to clear customs and I will present the safety certification which I have on hand, and then they should be on a truck on their way to me and that shouldn't take too long. I will keep y'all updated here and in the discord as they make their way to me! Discord Link
I am also going to be cooking up a special gift for EVERYONE as a thank you for your patience!
P.S. did y'all know you ordereed about 650lbs of extra weight. i have to order a total of 800lbs of glass beads. lord.
