Innocence
🕑 Added 2024-05-02 14:00:10 +0000 UTCDear Patrons,
It has been a bit quiet here over the last few days - I ask for your understanding. I wanted to take the time to share a few more thoughts with you. I have a penchant for drama but the preparations for the Innocence campaign really require a lot of time and energy. Not everything is going as planned, and the pressure is great, as the success of this campaign will also influence the future of my entire work. We are close to the launch and I am still finalizing the rewards details. Your continued support and interest is very important to me and I hope you will continue to support this project.
Due to rising shipping costs, I am forced to adjust shipping costs for shipments outside of the US. Shipping 2 decks to Europe currently costs about 26-28€ - a sum that is definitely too high. I'm trying to keep the price increase as low as possible (+2-3€ compared to the last project) and will cover the rest myself.
With the 10 Year Anniversary campaign, I already knew that the shipping costs would be raised again in the new year. I didn't even question the exact costs, because I only ever set the shipping costs so that it remains fair for all supporters. In the end, I always paid a certain amount myself. But with the last campaign I was surprised with an insanely high amount of shipping costs, which was over €10K. About 3K more than I would have thought myself.
Due to these rising costs, I must slightly increase the price of the FCFS bundle, but you'll essentially only be paying for the Innocence decks and still save 35€ with this bundle. The pricing for 1 and 2 decks, as well as the Early Bird Special, will remain unchanged from the holo campaign.

Your thoughts and feedback are invaluable. I'm especially looking forward to your opinions on the new photos with the silk background, as opinions among my friends are pretty divided :D
Much love

Thanks for this post, but don't worry about the shipping. Nothing we can do about it.

Unfortunately, we can't avoid shipping cost and taxes. It's a shame that they keep increasing, but you can't control them !! They aren't your fault, we will pay for them (not su much) gratefully haha I like the silk btw!!

Well, the shipping costs are what they are. And IMO there's no need for you, Daniel, to cover any of the expenses regarding that. We're all eager to get our hands on the new decks, even if they cost a bit more to ship.

Thanks for sharing your thoughts and be honest about the shipping costs. FCFS bundle will still be my selection, no doubt about it. As for the pictures, I really love how the inside of the tuck looks, but in my opinion it doesn't show off the gold in the design
