4/ so hum yeah, i guess i just wanted to know if you handled these at all or if they came straight from manufacturing? because if they did, there's nothing you could have done and i guess i already feel dumb for telling you all this because it's not your fault but i'm just disappointed and it feels wrong of me, i don't know. alright, i hope you have a good day!
hello! i received my package a couple of weeks ago and since then i've been struggling with deciding to contact you about this or not, because i feel petty but at the same time, i can't get over my disappointment. first of all, the zine is wonderful, the quality is really good and it has some of my favourite artists of all time in there. of course like with any zine, there's a couple of pieces i don't like, but it's a gamble and that just comes with the way zines work. 1/?
2/ oh i ordered the dishonored zine, btw. so yeah, the zine is really cool. now my issues are that the items in my package arrived in poor condition. the mat finish over the zine caught all the bumbs and scratches from handling and the ride to get here, so it's all damaged and yeah, scratched mostly, with a few bumps like if someone had pressed their nails or a blunt object in it. the corners are damaged as well as the spine
3/ the merch, unfortunately, suffered the same fate, worst of all the charms. they're so scratched the designs are basically ruined, the edges aren't finished/sanded so they peel off a bit. i'm not a fan of the artwork on the stickers, print and badges but that's my own fault so i absolutely can't complain about them. the stickers and print are of great quality, no issues here, but the badges are damaged as well
Hiya! First of all, thanks so much for purchasing the zine! The issue with charms can be sorted immediately - there’s a protective film on both sides that has to be removed. If you can’t see it, there are a lot of tutorials online with pictures.
All the items in the pack were in good condition when we arrived and when they were sent off - any damage will have been a result of the postal service, as we don’t have any control over what happens to the package once it leaves our hands at the post office.
Also, while everyone has their owns tastes and preferences in art, you’ve stated that you can’t complain about pieces that you don’t like, and yet you brought it up twice. If you accept that it’s the nature of zines, please don’t bring it up again, all of our artists worked hard to bring this project together!
