Howdy all!

It's been a long time since we made a post and I apologise for the short notice but this is a public update that the shop will finally be closing Saturday 21st September! Treefroglee from avatarots has been such a huge help to this project and managed to recoup and mail out what we could recover, thank you Lee!!

With the closing of the shop I'll officially be logging out of this account in about a week from now and the project will be completely closed. For some reason I'm not able to access the messages sent to this account so if anyone has any questions please reply to this post or contact me directly at @planetcrayon . Once again so sorry to everyone who was let down by this project, thank you for your compassion with the situation and all the best for the future everyone!

Hi everyone! Apologies for the MIA here, for a long time we thought this zine was a total loss, we did manage to recover most of the merch but we didn't have access to the funds or any way to send out that merch. We are still so sorry for what happened to this zine and a lot of us are still trying to do right by you all, which is why a few of us have put in our own savings to try get out this merch to our preorder customers. We don't have enough to do it all by ourselves however so weve also set up a shop containing any excess merch we have also. Our funding goal is $300 USD and we are getting close to hitting that goal so any extra support is incredibly appreciated 💖 if we somehow end up with any excess after breaking even any extra profits will be donated to charity

A few more things:

Here's a functional hyperlink to the website

(Because I'm not the original owner of this blog and have just been added into it im not able to edit my own posts apparently)

We still have no information on the actual zines themselves. At this point they are fully considered a lost cause because all attempts to retrieve them have been unsuccessful. Same with the funds :( if you'd like to see the zine however we have made it free to access the PDF version of it which you can find just a few posts down on this blog.

Mod Lee from the @avatarots project is the person who is responsible for getting us this far, they have been incredibly kind and selfless in both retrieving what stock they could and also handling the zines shop, funds and shipping of our merch. The avatarots team as a whole have been very supportive and I would like to thank them and especially Lee for literally coming to our rescue. We can also confirm Lee physically has the merch stock now so that's in safe hands at last.

Last thing for now is that I am unable to access any asks or messages on this blog for some reason so like last time if you have any questions or enquiries please contact me directly at @o-kaytea or you can email me at [email protected] if you'd prefer.

If you've made it this far I wanna say thanks so much for taking the time to read this, your support means a lot to us who are still trying to this day and we are trying our best to do right by you ! - KT ❤️

I realize I never posted it, so here’s the Katara enamel pin I designed for the Dangerous Ladies zine (in 2019) 🌊

Sadly, this zine collapsed and the original mod team disappeard into the void. Some valiant contributors tried to salvage what could be with the help of an outside mod. Thus, leftover merch is now available to purchase, to reimburse the original buyers’ shipping fees (paid from contributors’ pockets). You can read the whole story on the zine’s tumblr @girlsofavatarzine + the replacement mod statement here

🌊 Good news is that you can get this pin now! Check the shop, there’s a bunch of very cool merch alongside: dangerousladies.bigcartel.com 🌊

Update from the artists of the Dangerous Ladies Zine:

We want to apologise for the handling of this zine and with a heavy heart we have to announce that this project is now considered a failure. You can read the entire story below.

I still have hope that one day we might receive our items and be able to deliver them to our supporters but we have reached the limit of what is possible for us to do. Because of that we are sharing the PDF for free to everyone, the link for which is here:

Update:

Hello everyone.

I’ve recently reached out to stripe and BigCartel support to see if there’s any way to access the zine’s remaining funds. I haven’t heard back from either yet, but I’ll keep you all updated as soon as I do.

[girlsofavatarzine]

An Update from the Team:

Hello everyone. First, we apologize for the delay. This is a bit of information on our shipping situation:

Our shipping mod, Miles, has been MIA for several months. Pings and DMs from mods, contributors, and others we’ve reached out to who’ve been in contact with them have been unanswered. With the lack of updates, we have to figure out an alternative plan if we want to ensure this project can continue.

A contributor participating in another zine with Miles also serving as shipping mod received word that the mod team of that zine plans to collect the remaining stock for another mod to handle shipping, and has asked them if they’d be willing to pick up ours so we can figure out a new approach to shipping. With the news that they weren’t able to contact Miles, we’re now trying to figure out what can be done next. We’ll keep you updated as the situation progresses.

Regards,

Dangerous Ladies team

Brief Announcement:

Hello there everyone,

As you’ve noticed, we’ve experienced delays in the shipping process. Our production mod, mod Miles, has been hit very hard by the COVID pandemic, and as a result they’ve been set back while they regain their bearings. Please feel free to reach out to us at any time, and thank you for your patience while we work through this situation.

- Dangerous Ladies Mods

[girlsofavatarzine]

UPDATE!!

The die cut stickers, sticker sheets, and buttons have arrived!

We are now currently waiting on charms and postcards before we have all our items, and will be ready for shipping.

Thank you all for your patience, and we apologize for the delays. Happy holidays!

[girlsofavatarzine]

How would one go about requesting a refund?

Hey there anon! If you need to request a refund on your order, feel free to send us an email with your order confirmation number as proof of purchase and our finance mod will be able to help you out.

[girlsofavatarzine]

What’s up turtleducks! The mods of Dangerous Ladies are back with another production update:

The proof of our zine has arrived! Here’s a flip through done by our shipping mod:

A few changes are going to be done to contributor credits and the book’s spine, however these are all relatively minor changes!

Proofs for the heart buttons, enamel pins and postcards are due to arrive sometime soon; and our charms and washi tape are being proofed digitally with a quote being compiled by the manufacturer. Finally, orders for our stickers will be placed today now that we’ve got the modified stickersheet in the drive!

Thank you all so much for your support and remember to get plenty to drink this week! We’ll continue to provide updates as we get them. Stay flaming and stay safe everyone!

[girlsofavatarzine]

Hello all-- here are a couple small updates for everyone!

All merch proofs have been ordered and are on the way!

Zine proof has arrived! Pictures will be posted as soon as our shipping mod relinquishes the photos.

Thank you all again for your patience, please reach out if you have any concerns or questions regarding the project. We’re extremely excited to be able to start sharing production photos with everyone!

[girlsofavatarzine]

Hello! Do you have any production updates or photos?

Not as of yet, unfortunately-- but we’ll post them as soon as production items start coming in! Thank you for your patience. 

[girlsofavatarzine]

Will things be shipping soon?

Hey there! We apologize for the silence on our side; unfortunately, COVID has impacted some of the admins’ lives in a big way, and it’s caused some delays in this project. However, some items have been ordered, and will be posted on this blog as soon as they start showing up. 

Thank you for your continued patience, and we hope to be back soon with some better news!

[girlsofavatarzine]

I'm wondering if I missed shipping or something. Your bigcartel store is open for sales. Are you already doing leftover sales?

Hello, sales are closed, we’re just dumb and forgot to close the shop. Leftover sales will be announced once all orders have been shipped.

Thanks for asking!
