@Corey - We have sent out the survey to folks in the $10 pledge category and will send out more once we are back in California (in a week). We haven't been able to prepare and ship out rewards while on the road like we thought because we haven't been in one place long enough and planning/managing the tour, the many hours on the road, and setting up and conducting the Trading events has been much more all-consuming and demanding that we ever anticipated. We will be done with the project very soon and will get out all our rewards in the next few weeks! Thanks again for your support, patience and for checking in!

Have you already sent out the 'survey' requesting our information for shipment? I haven't received anything and just wanted to make sure I wasn't missing out. I"m a $55 Backer and haven't received any rewards so far, just wondering when we should expect to be contacted and when we should expect to receive rewards.
Thanks!

@Itchy D - we are very behind on sending our rewards because we've been on the road with our project. We're very sorry we underestimated the amount of work we took on. We do have the rewards in production and will send them out as soon as we can. We've been working hard on the zines and are for sure going to send them. If you would like us to refund your pledge, we can do that. Please send us your information and we can do that through PayPal or Amazon Payments. We don't want anyone to feel unhappy about pledging to our project.

I pledged and paid $40 in support, expecting to recieve something in return - 5 monthly travel zines but I have recieved nothing. You have robbed me. You are bad people.
