Hey folks!
Good news, the smoke test is live. Roughly 10% of you will receive surveys to complete your purchases and details. This will help us work out the kinks. Once the smoke test is done (approximately Monday), I'll send the rest of the surveys.
Thank again, everyone!

Quick Update before the weekend re: Backerkit

Hey folks!
Just letting you know that Backerkit has been in a review for a couple days. The process has been very detailed as our Backerkit rep, Brandon, is making sure that everything works like it's supposed to. There's a lot of SKUs in play, so we want to make sure that everyone gets what was promised to them.
Hopefully we'll have it done and ready for the smoke test on Monday. Once BK goes live, we can start working on the quickstarter products.
I'll keep you posted!

Backerkit is Under Review... and we were able to save quite a bit of shipping for many of you!

Hey everyone!
I just finished submitting Backerkit. It likely has a few kinks to work out, particularly as it relates to domestic shipping costs and media mail. So it may still be a day or two. Hopefully, no later than Friday. In my experience, the folks at BK are pretty fast.
Some good news, however, is that many of the countries we shipped to will get some significant savings with the shipping fees, notably the United Kingdom and Australia and a lot of EU countries that are getting more than just the core book (core set, peach set, cherry set, etc.)
We tried to save wherever we could while still leaving a little room in case shipping rates increase in the next 12 months, but I think you'll all be pretty satisfied with the result. Only a few countries ended up being a little higher than we expected, notably Greece, Malta, and Cyprus.
Anywho, once this is all done, we should get to cranking on the quickstart rules, which we plan to start shipping in October.
Thanks all!
Dave

Hey everyone!
Just a quick update on the Backerkit. We've got everything set up on the back end. Now we're just finalizing shipping quotes to ensure we don't charge too much or too little. As soon as we get the information from our shipping partners, we'll get this beast up and running.
Thanks for your patience!

Hey all!
Just letting you know that I'm working my way through the backerkit and should have it up and running soon. A nasty bout with allergies and some other duties slowed things down a bit, but we should have it rockin' and a rollin' either late this week or early next, depending on how long the review takes.
Thanks for your patience!
In the meantime, let me know any additional add-ons you want for this.
Thanks!
