Stickers update
The good news is that I've received all the stickers. The very bad news is that only 15% of them are cut properly, and the majority of them aren't even B grade stickers. I canno...

Because these are ...

The pins have landed!
All of the pins have arrived!
Now starts the process of checking each pin, aka grading. As I mentioned in my previous post, this will take me a while.

Your pins and stickers are about to set sail! Most of you will be receiving a USPS tracking number email within the next couple of hours, if you haven't already. Unfortunately, I forgot to change the subject line and first sentence from prints (from my previous campaign) to pins before some of the confirmation emails were sent. I apologize for any confusion that may cause. That oversight on my part aside, I can assure you your package will indeed contain pins and/or stickers.
For Canadian backers, your tracking number will look a little unusual as it will start with AHOY because I use Pirate Ship for postage and that's their format for international package tracking numbers.
Packages will be dropped off at the post office this morning. US backers should receive your pins in 2-5 business days depending on destination. Canadian backers, yours could take up to 2 weeks.
There are 6 of you who had card errors while being charged for shipping. In most cases, it's a minor as a zip code needing to be updated or an expired card. Please correct the error as soon as possible, so I can ship your pins as well.
Please let me know when you receive your pins! Thank you so much for your patience and support everyone!
I wanted to send a quick reminder that cards will be charged for shipping, add-ons added during the survey, and any charges that didn't go through during the campaign, tomorrow, 8/30/24.
Shipping will begin Tuesday, 9/3/24!
Please make sure your shipping address is correct by then, and email me with any needed changes before then: [email protected]
Apologies for my radio silence as I've waited for the reprinted stickers to arrive. I'm happy to say I received them today and they look great! The holographic effect isn't captured in this photo, but they are all indeed shiny and holographic!
Sticker stacks
The pins and stickers are all packaged up and ready to ship! However, I did say I'd give everyone a heads-up a week before I charge cards for shipping, and that's still the case. I will be charging cards for shipping Friday, August 30, 2024. If you need to update your payment information, please do so by the 30th.
The shipping estimate listed in the campaign, $6 for US backers and $13 for Canadian backers, is what your card will be charged.
There are a handful of people whose cards didn't go through at the end of the campaign. If you're one of those people, you will see a charge in the amount of your original pledge, any items you added in the survey, and shipping.
🚨 IMPORTANT: If you need to update your shipping address, please email me at: [email protected]before August 30, 2024 so I can update it.
The good news is that I've received all the stickers. The very bad news is that only 15% of them are cut properly, and the majority of them aren't even B grade stickers. I cannot give you anything this poorly done.
I'm waiting for a response from my sticker manufacturer about that poor quality of my order, but to be honest, I don't trust them to do it correctly. As a result, I'm going to have them remade by another sticker manufacturer.
I will post another update when I have an ETA for the remade stickers. In spite of this setback, I'm still on track to deliver by (or before) September.
Because the stickers are going to need to be remade, I'll be holding off on charging cards for shipping. However, if you need to change your mailing address, please email me by August 16, 2024:[email protected]
Again, I will not replace shipments for free that are sent to incorrect addresses and/or returned to me, so please double-check your mailing address here: https://tiny-mariner-pins.backerkit.com/
Thank you again for your patience and support with this project, I truly appreciate you all!
Things have been very quiet for the past month as I've been grading all the pins and waiting for the stickers to go into production and be shipped.
Because these are my first enamel pins, I took a very long time to carefully grade them, and I'm happy to say they're ready to go!

The stickers are scheduled to arrive Monday, 7/29. After I check them, barring issues, I'll be ready to start packing and shipping pins and stickers shortly thereafter!
Assuming the stickers arrive on time and are problem free, I will be locking addresses and charging cards for shipping (and any cards that didn't go through when the campaign ended) August 9, 2024.
I will not replace shipments for free that are sent to incorrect addresses, so please make sure your address is correct before August 6, especially if you're in Canada!
If you are moving close to that date and would like me to delay shipping your package, please email me BEFORE August 9 at: [email protected]
I will confirm the address lock and credit card charge date after the stickers arrive.
