Update #9: 8 hours left!
Hey Everyone,
The response that we have received from our backers for Tembo Trunks has been awesome. We can’t believe how quickly the last 60 days has gone. With just 8 hours until our project finishes, we wanted to write a quick update for you all.
Thankyou for all your support, comments and messages throughout the project. It really has been awesome. We are working tirelessly to get your ‘Trunks out to you as soon as possible. We will get back to all your messages and comments individually – please bear with us, there are a few there.
When the project finishes, Amazon Payments will charge your credit card for your pledge amount. Also, a quick reminder (from our last update);
In the final stages of the project there are a few important things we wanted to let you know about:
· After the project finishes up on Kickstarter we will be sending out surveys via email to collect the shipping details of all backers. This is the only way to collect your mailing address. We’ll be able to get your ‘Trunks out to you ASAP with these details, so please keep an eye out for this one.
· We’ve got a really proactive company helping us fulfil orders in the USA (your ‘Trunks will be picked, packed, and shipped from the West Coast of the USA).
Please remember if you are located outside the USA to add international shipping of $10.00 to your pledge.
How can I add $10.00 to my pledge?
Kickstarter have made this really easy. Log into Kickstarter. Go to the Tembo Trunks project page http://www.kickstarter.com/projects/tembotrunks/tembo-trunks-earbud-speakers and click the ‘manage my pledge’ button on the right. At the top of this page please add shipping to your pledge and click ‘continue’. For example for First ‘Trunks backers this page would have ‘$39.00’ (without international shipping) please change this figure to ‘$49.00’ (to include international shipping).
It’s a great weekend for us - we hope you all enjoy your weekend as well! We will be in touch very soon.
Thanks again,
Scott and Mike

I'm Scott from Sydney, Australia. I currently work as an Industrial Designer for a leading surf hardware company. My brother Mike makes up the other half of the Tembo team, bringing his business skills and creativity to help launch Tembo Trunks. We've had heaps of fun designing the 'Trunks. We hope you like it.
Did you know that "tembo" means "penis" in guarani language.?
One more reason to have it.
For those of us who got the 'add $10 for international shipping' email at the same time as 'your pledge has been paid' emails, how do we go about adding it retrospectively?
