Update #9: Shipping Addresses Still Needed!

Posted on August 14, 2009

Hope everyone has been enjoying their packages of Polyvinyl CDs. Almost all of them have been sent out, but we're still waiting on shipping addresses from several backers. If you haven't received your package yet, please send an e-mail with your address to mailorder@polyvinylrecords.com and Chris will get it sent out ASAP.

Thanks!

Update #8: Project Complete, But A Few Packages Still Available!

Posted on July 29, 2009

In the frenzy to get all the packages packed up and sent out, we accidentally over-produced a few packages at each backer level EXCEPT $10. If anyone still wants a package, drop an email to Chris at mailorder@polyvinylrecords.com and he can arrange it for you.

Thanks!

      For the extra packages, the complete list is no longer to the left http://www.kickstarter.com/projects/mattlunsford/help-us-save-our-office

Update #7: Fort Austin!

Posted on July 28, 2009

Hi Everyone! The sheer volume of Kickstarter packages shipping out last week was so massive that we used them to build a fort around Adam's desk while we were waiting for the mailman to pick them up. Chris posted some fun pictures on the tumblr blog:

Ha!

Update #6: thank you everyone!

Posted on July 14, 2009

we are in shipping insanity mode here. the office looks like a CD tornado hit. the mail carrier is going to freak out next week when we have almost 400 extra boxes on top of the normal daily mail. that should be interesting!
everyone should be receiving a message soon that allows you to get us your shipping address for your package. we are working with kickstarter right now to streamline this process!

      I still haven't received my cds/records/dvds yet. Should I be worried or are you guys still processing everything?

Update #5: SHIPPING ADDRESSES

Posted on June 18, 2009

NOTE: the way Kickstarter works for shipping addresses--at the end date of the project (July 14) all Backers will receive an individual message asking for your shipping address. All packages will be shipping the week of July 20.

Update #4: Lots of chatter...

Posted on June 17, 2009

It's been amazing to see how many people have been getting the word out about this. Thanks so much to (among others):

Update #3: New Goal!

Posted on May 26, 2009

wow! thanks so much everyone. we had no idea what to expect from this so we set the goal at $1,000. with everyone's help, we got there in just one day!!! crazy! never in our wildest dreams did we think that would happen!
so we did some adding and figured out that if we get to roughly $18,000 we will completely and totally empty our overstock. So even though we can't technically change the goal on Kickstarter, with your help, we are going to make that our new goal :)

Update #2: International Shipping

Posted on May 26, 2009

We've had several people asking about shipping outside the US. We are happy to do it. You would just need to add these amounts to your pledge for shipping:

$5 pledge = add $15

$10 pledge = add $15

$15 pledge = add $15

$20 pledge = add $30

$30 pledge = add $30

$50 pledge = add $40

Update #1: Amazing!

Posted on May 22, 2009

The immediate response to this is more than we ever could have hoped for! thanks so much everyone. if we keep up like this, maybe we'll EMPTY our backroom!
