Survey delay
over 3 years ago – Mon, Nov 02, 2020 at 01:39:08 AM

I've gotten a few questions about this, so I wanted to post an update so that everyone is on the same page. The surveys are delayed due to Backerkit's review process. I'm staying on top of the issue and we will be adjusting the timeline so that we can make sure we have the full 3 week window for everyone to get their surveys in.

Thank you for letting me know that surveys hadn't gone out yet - I really appreciate that because it let me know where the issue was so that I could get this resolved as fast as possible. I'll post another update when the emails officially go out just to let you all know to keep an eye on your inboxes. 

Surveys and surprises
over 3 years ago – Wed, Oct 28, 2020 at 07:35:44 PM

Hello backers! I know I've said it a lot, but you're just going to have to hear me gush again - thank you SO MUCH for your support!! I could not do any of this without you. Ever since campaign end, I've been working my tail off behind the scenes to get everything in order - and to that end, I have some tasty news today.

Thanks to the resourcefulness of Catstealers, (seriously if you're on twitter, send her some love) I'm going to be able to offer ALL of the stretch goal insert colors to backers - including the special screen-printed ones! In part because of this development, I've opted to use BackerKit to handle backer surveys and give everyone a chance to pick up last minute add-ons for their orders. Surveys will go out tomorrow, October 29th! - make sure to fill those out ASAP!!

Have a friend who didn't back get in on the Kickstarter in time? I've got good news for them too - after backer surveys go out, I'll be opening a pre-order store through BackerKit as well. The pre-order store will be open for an additional three weeks.

I'll leave you with a preview/reminder of the options available for inserts, and an additional hearty THANK YOU for your incredible support.

FULLY FUNDED!!

Pull out the party poppers, friends, we are FUNDED!!

It's happening!! We did it!! Or should I say... YOU did it. I'm humbled, I'm at a loss for words, and most importantly I am just so, so GRATEFUL to all of you for this incredible support.

It's the last 24 hours of the campaign, so let's just party today!! I'll be getting to work bright and early tomorrow - y'all just sit back and relax and wait for your glorious spoils.

A reminder about add-ons!

A reminder about add-ons!

As the campaign moves through its final week, I need to take a minute to remind the backers about add-ons! These are additional purchases you can make by increasing the dollar amount of your pledge - you'll be able to specify what you purchased in your backer survey after the campaign ends. But please remember, once that countdown ends, you cannot increase your pledge! So you have to start thinking now about what else you want in your package!

Board filler Mini-pins (+$10usd)

If you ordered at the Starbag Setup tier or above, your bag already comes with one set of three mini-pins - but I cannot emphasize enough how adorable and how aesthetically useful these babies can be! Fill the inevitable gaps in your pin collection, or add a bit of subtle sparkle to your favorite outfit! Add $10usd to your pledge to get another 3-pack!

Additional Inserts (+$5usd)

Inserts are an incredibly useful element of this ita bag design - especially if you're a pin addict like me! You can easily set up multiple pin displays and swap them out instantly. You can keep an everyday display set up on one insert and make new displays for special occasions on another! During these last days, keep a close eye on our stretch goals - as we unlock further goals, we'll be getting new insert color options to choose from! Add $5usd to your pledge to secure another insert!
