All Pins Shipped!! + End-of-Kickstarter Housekeeping
over 1 year ago – Fri, Mar 24, 2023 at 09:50:11 AM

The time has come...

To tell you that all Kickstarter orders have been filled, packed, and shipped! I've just returned from the post office, where I left all the black bubble mailers and the pins they contain in the care of USPS. 

Please allow up to 72 hours for the tracking number attached to your order to populate with updates; my local USPS offices are understaffed and struggling, so label scanning may be delayed.

Thank you so much to all the bi pin recipients for being so patient and kind as I waited to replace them – it wasn't a delay I'd planned on, and I really appreciate you :)

What's next?

Before this Kickstarter comes to a close, there are some loose ends to tie up. Please read this section carefully and note the deadlines! At some point, this Kickstarter does need to come to an end, hence said deadlines...

• I haven't received my package: If your pin(s) were shipped out during the first wave (meaning your order did NOT contain a bisexual pride pin) and you haven't received your package, please email me* with your order tracking number by March 30, 2023. Please note that I may not be able to assist with this for international orders, as once the package hits customs, it's largely out of my hands. That said, I will do everything I can to help you locate your package!
• Something is wrong with my pin: To err is human, and while I rigorously grade all the pins I send out, something may have slipped through the cracks. If you receive a pin that is somehow damaged, please email me* with a photo of the impacted pin by April 23, 2023. After this date, I will not be re-shipping pins to backers.

*Please send your email to [email protected]!

What if I want more pins?

Any leftover pins from this campaign will be listed on Etsy - including B-grade pins. This will be an opportunity to purchase more pins if you’d like. Nothing on Etsy is a pre-order, it will all be items that are in stock and ready to ship. There isn’t a specified date when the listings will go up, but it should be by the middle of April. I’m currently going through all the leftover stock and counting inventory, and will post an update here when the listings are live, in case y'all want to get more pins!

Future Kickstarters

As of now, I have no set-in-stone plans for future Kickstarters; that said, I've been vending at convention artist alleys and have had several people ask me about making my screaming possum pride stickers into pins. If that's something you'd be interested in, let me know – I'd absolutely be down to kickstart those designs if there's a market, though it wouldn't be until the summer.

Thank you!

Once again, and in big letters, I wanted to say thank you for being so kind, supportive, and unhinged with me – I couldn't have asked for a better first-time Kickstarter experience. It's incredibly rare for a pin Kickstarter to get fully funded on the first try, and I know damn well I can credit all of that success to you!

While there were some hiccups and goofs (including me learning I don't actually know everything I thought I did about BackerKit), I know that'll just make future Kickstarters I run go smoother, and I truly hope you'll consider joining me for those adventures!

In the meantime, if you'd like to continue following along on my adventures, you can find me on Instagram, TikTok, subscribe to my newsletter, and come say hi at the following conventions:

• Tidewater Comic Con, May 20-21, 2023, Virginia Beach, VA
• Fan Expo Dallas, June 9-11, 2023, Dallas, TX

Love,

Replacement Bi Pins are Here!
almost 2 years ago – Sat, Mar 11, 2023 at 10:38:40 AM

Hi everyone! Just wanted to let you know that the replacement bi flag pins arrived at my doorstep yesterday, so now we're officially back in the fulfillment business! I'm going to take this weekend to grade the pins and then start putting pins into envelopes so y'all can get your goods - finally!!

I'm recovering from yet another bout of illness - loooooove being immunocompromised (sarcasm) - so right now I'm hoping to have all the orders sent out by March 26, 2023, but if that timeline needs to change, I'll let y'all know as soon as I do! However, since the lack of A-grad bi pins was the only reason for the delay, I'm hopeful I can speedrun order packing this time around!

Thanks, as always, for your patience - and also for all the tags on Twitter, Instagram and Discord as y'all get your pins. It truly makes my day to see my lil creations in your hands <3

-Cam
