We just made it to our goal!!

Update #13 · Jul 31, 2012 · 8 comments

What an amazing day! 

Starting with a great article in Goldmine magazine, this day was just incredible. 

We made it you our $27,000 and we still have 9 days to go!!

What will happen with the additional fund??

I want to make this book in a size of a 12" vinyl, so it's bigger and fits your vinyl shelf. 

instead of soft cover 8x8" 200 pages book, we wanna go bigger.

12X12" Hard Cover with 250-300 pages

How does that sound???

Will it happen??? I have a feeling it will. 

If we surpass our goal by $3000 we will be able to upgrade the book for everyone who pledged for it.

no additional cost. 

Thanks everyone!! 

Eilon

      Correct, thanks Ahmed for clearing this up. We're not asking for more $$. We are just sating that if we manage to get additional 3K, the book will be upgraded, with no additional cost to anyone.
      I am sorry if I confused you guys.

      To be clear... if the stretch goal is met, the $68 tier will result in us receiving a 12x12 book? If so, I will strongly consider upping my pledge.
