Shipping Progress + Happy Holidays
over 2 years ago – Sun, Dec 19, 2021 at 11:09:11 PM

Hi everyone! Happy Holidays!


Just a quick update to let everyone know how shipping is going. I have currently mailed out 300 packages! I have a large portion of orders going out tomorrow, and I hope to do a few more later today as well. 


I have around 41 orders to mail out (Most being international currently, as I have been making my way through the orders!) There are 3 people who had cards fail for add-on purchases, and about 15 people need to fill out surveys! So we are SO CLOSE to being all done!


Ideally if I can, I'd like to get through a couple more over today and tomorrow. Then all remaining orders would be mailed out after next week.


If you have had any issues with your order or have questions, don't hesitate to message me here on Kickstarter through the DM feature! I am happy to help with anything you need :)


Thank you all so much for your patience and kindness through the shipping progress! It has been A LOT for just myself, but I am so happy to say the finish line is in sight :)

Shipping Update part 3! + The plushies made it!
over 2 years ago – Sat, Nov 27, 2021 at 03:26:57 PM

Hi everyone!


Quick update for you all!

I've managed to send out 254 orders with about 86 left to go! And another positive note, the plushies arrived! I got them in the mail the other day so that's a positive! 


I am leaving for Seattle for Emerald City Comic Con on Sunday.  That being said, I'm going to pick up finishing mailing orders out when I get back December 6th.  Now that I have everything I need (including boxes and more envelopes) I can get the remaining orders out! Thank you all so much for your patience as I take care of mailing everything out!  It's quite the process, especially for one person. So thank you so much!


I will make another update when I am finishing up shipping orders. 


Have a great weekend!

Shipping update #2!
over 2 years ago – Sat, Nov 20, 2021 at 01:41:59 PM

Hi everyone! Just a quick update on shipping:


At this point in time I have mailed out 207 orders total. I have around 132 left (roughly!) I'm working my way currently through all of the national orders and once I have those completed I will be working on international. So for any international orders, don't worry! I am making my way to you!


I am still unfortunately waiting to receive the plushies. I got word on the 6th that they were unloaded off the boat and are currently processing through customs. As soon as UPS has them they should be to me within a day or so. I hate the waiting game too, and I apologize for the delay. Shipping usually doesn't take this long, but that's just unfortunately how the world is right now due to the shipping delays and supply issues. As soon as the plushies arrive I will make another update to let everyone know!


So if you ordered a plushie and haven't received a tracking # yet, please just hold tight and I will be shipping those orders as soon as I have them in hand :)


I'm going to keep working through all the orders in batches that I can handle. I'm just one person and it's a bit time consuming from this point as I handle all the unique add-ons everyone got! (Thank you btw!)


Information on your tracking #: You will receive an email to the email you used to fill out your survey with your tracking # 


I hope that helps, thank you all SO much! It makes me so happy hearing from people that they are getting their decks in! I hope you enjoy them! And for anyone who is still waiting, thank you for your patience!

Shipping has begun!
over 2 years ago – Sun, Nov 14, 2021 at 01:49:50 AM

Hi everyone!

Just wanted to jump on here really quickly to let everyone know that I have begun the shipping process!

Tonight I printed off around 176 labels and will begin filling those orders and packaging them tomorrow and Monday. My plan is to do a batch of orders every few days and work my way through them this coming week or so. If you haven't gotten a shipping notification, thats OK! I have only done about half of the orders as of right now, so don't panic!


I will make another update when I have completed another large batch of orders for shipping. 


Thank you all SO much for your patience and for making this deck a reality~


Have a wonderful weekend!

They have arrived! +Shipping beginning soon! +Update
over 2 years ago – Sat, Nov 06, 2021 at 04:36:36 AM

Hello everyone!

I am SO excited to say that the tarot decks arrived today! My friend and I literally spent two hours moving every single box (78 boxes!) Up to my apartment! 

 Check out how insane this is! I should have gotten a picture of me standing next to these pallets because the tallest one was taller than me! I would sit behind it to get some shade when I got tired haha


  So basically all i've been doing today was organizing the boxes and starting to get them into a somewhat manageable place in my house. It's been a little hectic, but we are getting there! 


 I have the boxes set aside currently for all the decks that would be mailing out for the kickstarter, so woo! progress! 

  I am still waiting on the plushies! 

I got word from my manufacturer that my plushies have in-fact arrived in the port, but because of the supply chain issues currently going on its just going to take a bit for them to go through customs and make it to me.  My hope is that the plushies will reach me within the next 2-3 weeks!  It could be much sooner than that, so fingers crossed! 


That being said, when it comes to shipping: I'm going to lock addresses in Backerkit over the weekend! This means you will have 48 hours to change your address if you need to. But once they are locked, it will be time to ship!

I am leaving on Tuesday to help a good friend of mine move. I will be back on Thursday and from there, I'm pretty much home until the first of December! Which means I'll begin shipping in about a week or so! Just need to make sure all the addresses are locked, and ready to go!  


My goal (because it is still very early November) is that I want to get a good bulk of the orders out this month before December.  I will keep you guys informed with every step of the way, as well as when the plushies arrive! 

That also being said, I will begin shipping orders that don't include plushies, but as soon as they arrive, those will be going out as well! 


Thank you all so much for your patience during all these crazy times. I'm still just very excited that I can get these decks out to you all! It means so much, so thank you!
