Sticker club interest check! (Patreon)

Patreon has polls, I can do this here wowee

This has been rock-tumbling in my mind for a while and I never thought that I could just... ask... and see if this was something folks were interested in. I've loved making stickers for sale at local events here and I've been itching to find a way to make and ship them locally. Living near my country's primary sticker manufacturer means it's super convenient for me to make these, they're fun, I don't have to spend a ton of time on them every month, and you get something to look forward to every month that you can put wherever. It'd be a win-win-win-win-win-win-win!

Some of you have been around here long enough to remember when I had prints as a reward tier and while that eventually became way too expensive to do (with shipping and stuff I was technically losing money @_@), I really loved sending out stuff to everyone with little notes and just... feeling connected in that way to folks who support me on here. Idk I also just like getting things in the mail, I imagine it was similar to everyone else :')

It's also the only thing I can do that is physical merch, currently. I've wanted to get a (proper, under my control) print shop going again but a good majority of you live in the United States, and shipping to the US from Canada for anything that isn't a letter means signing up for a third-party service to pay duties ahead of time. The duties are expensive because of your ""president"" and that's separate from the price of shipping too so it's... it's just unfeasible for me to figure out right now. There's options I'm looking into, but nothing that wouldn't require a lot of thought and setup (and risk).

Stickers, though, are snail mail and those are just mailed with regular postage! That's a dollar or two per stamp!

Whatever the sticker ends up being would be pretty up in the air. A mix of my OCs, fanart, dumb ideas. I've got plenty as is and I'm sure it'd be a fun thing to crowdsource every now and again.

I haven't decided on pricing yet, and the truth is that I might have to increase my tier prices wholesale (I have not done so since 2016, I will write another post about this later) but

I haven't settled on definitive pricing because I need a general idea first of how many people would want to sign up. How much the stickers cost to print and ship will vary depending on how many I'm sending out to begin with, and if the tier launches then I will be fully transparent with costs. That said, assuming the sicker club tier is reasonably priced, would you be interested?
