Prints Shipping Updates! (Patreon)
Content
Hello everyone, Matt here!
This post is only really relevant to those on the Patreon prints tier, but it's public just incase people have downgraded their tier since backing.
SO, after several months of external (Royal Mail, trains, industrial action, printing issues, brexit, Russian hacks) delays, we're set to be finally BACK ON TRACK.
We've just processed three months of prints in one go (Nov/Dec, Dec/Jan, and Jan/Feb), and they're all ready to go (I spent 6 days straight, 14 hours a day, packaging the damn things into their biofilm protective envelopes, and hand cleaning signature transfers off 1800 prints).
As it stands now, the December prints (scheduled to ship in January) will ship this week! Then the January and February prints will ship together next week - and we'll be completely back on schedule, and will be continuing on schedule going forwards. Not only that, but from those Jan prints onwards prints will ship in all new custom mailers! They've got a lovely printed design on, a tear strip for easier opening, and are made from 100% recycled card, are completely plastic free, and are fully compostable and recyclable! I also bought a pallets worth that'll last us a year, so we're COMMITED.
We're really sorry for how delayed they've been over the past few months. The huge amount of external factors really fucked us, along with with Christmas period generally adding more delays on top of that. We've been working really hard and now I'm happy to say we're on track again!
Going forward, prints should ship on schedule within the first week of the month following your prints pledge (So, February prints go out in March, March prints in April, etc). They're actually still a few days to back for the February prints if you want them and aren't on that tier yet.
