Preorders update!

Hi everybody! I am so so happy to announce that preorders are about to go live!

Buuuuut there’s a catch, and oh what a catch it is. International shipping is... insane. I’m going through Etsy so it’s all automatically calculated, and I’m going to bite the bullet and pay for all the packing on my own just to defray the cost a bit but... oh boy. The thing is the book is not small, it’s 320 pages, and with packing it weighs almost 3 pounds. So shipping can be as high as 40 dollars depending on where you are. I know that is so unfair but I promise if you do decide to buy and you’re outside the US all that money goes directly to the shipping labels.

I will be selling PDFs so you can still get your hands on a copy if (and I totally understand) that is too pricy for you!

Again I am so sorry 😔

It's not your fault 😭😭😭 then it's only pdf for me

Gabriel Hale

You're so kind and don't have to apologize for shipping costs! You're more than worth it! I just placed my order - you ROCK! :)

IneffableKink

Not your fault! But wow you weren't wrong. Gonna be a PDF for me I'm afraid

Alex Mckenzie

Yes to both ;)

Whiteley Foster

If there are 320 pages, does that mean it will be one large picture on each page? Will the Down book have a similar page layout?

Bobla Blubb

Have you looked into book rate shipping? I don't know if you can do that through Etsy but if you can it's very slow but cheaper.

I still totally appreciate the option to buy a copy. Hopefully it's not limited stock because there's no way I can afford $130 this week 😭😭😭

Mana Elizabeth

I completely understand! I wish desperately I could make it more affordable, but it’s out of my hands 😔 I will make the pdf available very soon!

Whiteley Foster

Yes :)

Whiteley Foster

Have you considered using a print on demand for international? For one, I know Amazon does text but I'm unsure about art in full colour. They print in the country too, afaik, so shipping is minimal...

DC

Will PDFs also have the Down portion?

Lisa

To my state (IL, USA), shipping was between $11-12 for regular processing, and something like $40+ for priority shipping, which would be slightly faster.

I was about to ask about a pdf version I apologize but ~100usd for the whole bundle+shipping is basically my weekly paycheck. Plus, customs is a nightmare and it can take 2-3 months for orders to arrive, IF you even get them. I will check with some US friends if they can get it for me Is the US shipping cost more affordable? I don't have a postal code yet to check on the shop

I so badly want the copy, but with shipping and 25% in extra fees plus cots I would end up paying about 150 dollars for the Book bundle... Will definitely buy the pdf ❤️❤️❤️

Benedicte

I'm technically part of the US, but since it's not The Mainland they still consider us as international 🙄 I will be buying the PDF version as I'm a student, but I still want to contribute.

Genesis Calderon Borgos

What do we type into the search engine on Etsy when it’s ready? I can’t wait to order!

Sarah Mae

Well that's at least a reason... Doesn't solve anything though.

I will buy the pdf for sure but with custom fees there's no way I can buy physical.

Vapor

Oh damn. Thanks for letting us know.

Josefine Kraft

The reason it cost so much is cause customs. If u send it regular, customs will charge the customer custom cost anyways. :( No way around customs

Madcheshirefox

Do you have an Etsy shop? I can't seem to find it anywhere

Warps_Cosplays

I live in Australia, and despite the shipping costs which will be hideous I am still buying a copy!!! 😍 Can't wait.

Dani Ang

No, I even took it to the post office to have them weigh it and go over my options

Whiteley Foster

Is there no international equivalent for media mail?

Tarek Giver of Cookies

yay to PDF-version then!!! still sososo excited ❤️❤️❤️

sick_pineapple

Is Canada included in “international”?

Breeyn Rogelstad

I know right?! It drive me crazy! I’ve literally been standing in the kitchen with a scale for a half hour trying figure out what type of packing weighs the least.

Whiteley Foster

*grabby hands* yay!

RangerDanger985

Shipping from the USA is absolutely insane, I do feel so sorry for you lot about this one!

Johanna Booth

Like Emma said. I want a digital copy please!

egmon73

I love the PDF but I’d love to have the physical copy as well! Can’t wait!

Victoria

Why is international shipping so insane? Do we pay for the airplane? Because we use airplanes to ship stuff around the US and with media mail shipping a book normally costs about $3.

Tarek Giver of Cookies

Can’t afford postage to Aus but so keen for a digital copy!!

Emma Atkinson

I can’t wait!
