This is my second crowdfunding campaign, because the first one was such a BLAST - THANK YOU once again to the wonderful backers, who helped bring the 2000s Kids Nostalgia Ita Bag to life!
My first Kickstarter's backers went viral several times, showcasing their bags on both TikTok and Instagram, which caused the extra stock of bags to sell out within 2 days!
Since then, I have received hundreds of messages from people who were too late to order their bags. They have been begging me to bring the bags back!
So, this time, I am back on BackerKit to cheer everyone up by presenting a restock of the 2000s Kids Nostalgia Ita bag with new color options & and to introduce my NEW product: a Digital Pals LED ita backpack, a nostalgic fashion accessory where style meets technology. I'm hopeful we can raise enough money to make another round of the 2000s Kids Nostalgia Ita Bags & to produce a new Ita Backpack!
This innovative ita backpack/bag allows you to showcase your favorite enamel pins and express your unique personality like never before!
YOU WILL BE CHARGED AFTER THE CAMPAIGN ENDS AND IF WE REACH THE FUNDING GOAL!

It is my second campaign (first was on Kickstarter), so I have prior experience managing large number of orders with really great response from the customers - 5 stars rating and Star-seller badge on Etsy. I will do my best to tackle any problem that might arise during the process!
PRODUCTION I have confidence in my manufacturer and I have been and am extremely pleased with the quality of the production of the first batch of bags! There might be delays to production due to any unforeseen circumstances and if so, I will keep you updated on the production timeline here on BackerKit.
QUALITY: Any major defects from manufacturing will go into the reject pile, but minor defects will be accepted from the manufacturer (this is to reduce waste); these accepted defects are typically those that are somewhat difficult to see without intense visual inspection. By backing this campaign, you have read and understand this, and you are okay with very minor defects in your rewards.
SHIPPING Delivery times are estimates and there is always the possibility of delays. Please be patient with the production and shipping process! I try to be as transparent as possible about any delays and update frequently via Kickstarter. By backing this campaign, you understand that delivery times are not 100% guaranteed. Note that backers are also responsible for all customs/VAT fees that may incur.
TRACKING All rewards will be sent with tracking. Please be aware that while I can control what goes into the box or package your order will arrive in, I cannot control the course which it will be delivered to you once it is out of my hands. Please first contact your local postal service in the case of a missing package. They will conduct an investigation. If you need further help, please contact me. I cannot guarantee a replacement package.
REFUNDS & CANCELLATIONS Once the campaign is complete, refunds or cancellations will not be issued for any reason. Please fully read over the campaign, and only pledge if you understand & accept the above estimated timeline and risks!
