Almost all the orders have shipped! I'm still waiting to hear back from a few people so be sure to check your Kickstarter emails!
I've re-opened the pre-order store for pins that I know I have plenty of, and I'll be adding more as I do a full inventory. I wanted to make sure I had everything or close to it before I started taking any more orders. If you have not gotten a tracking notification yet please let me know!
Pre-order store:
Preorder Pride Dragons Enamel Pins, Acrylic Charms & Stickers on BackerKit
And be sure to check out my next pin project! Some of you may know that next to dragons I'm also an animal lover, I worked as a zookeeper and I run a business called Alchemy Reptiles.

Almost all the orders have been shipped!
The few remaining, a total of 6 are ones that had missing pins. I have contacted you directly about this so please check your Kickstarter emails if you haven't gotten a shipping notification or gotten your pins already. Most everyone in the US should have gotten their pins by now. International ships are going really slow :( If there was any errors with what you got please let me know!
Extra pins will be up in my Etsy store soon! But if there are any that you want send me a message as some are super limited & won't be reordered in most styles. The soft enamel black will be the only style available in the future on almost all the pins. A few I might do in rainbow just because it was so pretty but I'm not 100% sure yet. So grab them while you can!
Thanks everyone & hope you all have a good week!!
Only 10 orders left to ship! And a big thank you again!!

I only have 10 orders left to ship out! The 10 that are left are sadly ones that had pin variations that I didn't get. I have sent everyone a direct message on Kickstarter with the options of a replacement & what's available. So please check your messages.
And let me just say I have the BEST customers!! You all have been so understanding about this mix up! I was in tears over this because I thought I had done so well in ordering all the different styles. Ya'll have made me feel so much better about the mix up! I even made a spread sheet (something I'm not very good at) and still messed up the count. So it's a relief to know there are so many great & understanding people out there!
So let me say thank you again from the bottom of my heart!!

I've sent out messages to everyone that hand pins that didn't come in. If you didn't get a message then your order will be on it's way soon!
Messages will be in your Kickstarter inbox & I've figured out the replacement pins for most or you're welcome to pick a different pin.
Looks like I'm going to have a lot of trans pride left in all styles because of the mix up. So if anyone is interested in that pin at a discount let me know ^_^
Count Error :( Please read if you haven't gotten a tracking notification

So I've run into 3 problems with the count I did.
1 was completely my fault as I got the numbers on Inclusive Progress #2 & #3 switched on the proofs. Another was the factory shorting me a few pins (which they replaced) And now I finally figured out why I have so many extras of some pins & none of others. Some how the SKU #s that Backerkit uses got used for more than one pin. I've been talking to them back & fourth & no one can figure out how it happened. Basically Trans Pride replaced a bunch of other SKUs so now I have a ton of that pin extra but other pins I'm short on. I went by BackerKits counts thinking that would be the easiest thing to do. Sadly lesson learned that I should have printed every order & done a manual count. It would have taken a lot longer but would have insured that I had the right pins.
So if you haven't gotten a shipping notification yet (Not counting pre-orders) You'll probably be getting an email from me about the missing pins & what's available to switch it out for. You also have the option of being refunded for the missing pins.
The pins that I'm running into being short on or not having any at all in some variants are:
Queer Pride
Philly's New Pride Flag
Polyamory
Inclusive processive #3
Sexually-fluid #2
I have these pins but not in a variant of what I need. For example someone ordered Queer Pride with out glitter and I only have it with glitter. If you know you ordered a variant of the pins above feel free to message me if I haven't sent you a message yet. If you trust me to pick a suitable replacement pin just comment here!
Sorry again everyone! I've learned my lesson on not making too many options on one thing. I need to remember "keep it simple"
