IT'S A DATE!

Thank you all SO MUCH for patiently waiting. I finally have a "ALL BOOKS FINISHED PRINTING" date from the printers; JULY 19th! !!! (shipping ETA to come shortly after, TBD)

Once I have an exact ETA for books to my doorstep and can begin shipping out I will make another update right here. You still have a couple weeks to update any address changes and will be given a final warning before addresses lock end of July.

Again, thanks for waiting as I didn't want to keep making updates without exact confirmation on the timeline. We had a bit of a delay all last month dealing with printing technicalities with China authorities, but alas it was cleared and back in motion end of June. This delay was completely out of anyone's control and many projects needed paperwork re-submitted. In the meantime, I have been packaging all of the print and sticker sets getting them ready to be added to orders once the books arrive! 

So yes, technically both Watercolor Pin-up Art books and Sketchbook vol. 3  are "finished" before Comic Con, but they won't make it to the table in time. Good thing you all secured your books ahead of time and will get them sent to your doorstep!

Soon, my lovlies! Soon!

SHIPPING QUESTIONS!
12 months ago – Wed, May 17, 2023 at 10:33:27 AM

I've had a few questions and concerns about shipping prices and wanted to help anyone who is wondering! Yes, all books and items in the order will be shipped together! The shipping rates are based on the estimated weight of each item according to USPS and I bundled the best I could when adding more items to your order! However, it does get tricky!

You may notice an add-on shipping price under your Kickstarter shipping price. This is due to the package weight increasing when more books are added to the order. The pin-up books are estimated right around 4lbs, so with any additional books (even the comic) it’s going to jump it up from First Class to Priority Flat Rate. 

For US orders, I will use Media Mail for the lowest rate for both the Pin-up book and sketchbooks, however they do not allow comic books. The comic add-ons are priced with the upgraded Priority price (but that just means you can get your books faster! Yay!)

For International orders, the rates once we get over 4lbs are quite high, but USPS Priority Flat International seems to be the best deal for those grabbing many items. So yes, you will still get your order shipped all in one package and it will be faster with priority!

Hope this makes sense and always happy to look into it for anyone who still has questions or concerns!

PS. As for WHEN the shipping will take place, I will update as soon as I have an estimated delivery date!
