Hi, is it possible there will ever be a resale of just the base digital zine?

I just found out this project existed and the art is so beautiful

I'm very sorry, but at this current time, it's not something we have planned. Especially as all proceeds went and would still go to charity, maintaining ongoing sales would require continual management for something intended as a one-off project.

We won't be monitoring the inbox for future asks about resales, but if a second run of the digital zine is even planned in the future, we'll announce that here and on other socials!

[medicalgradezine]

will you ever restock? i wasn't able to get any originally and i regret it heavily because i loved it all

Sorry no, it's unlikely we will restock, as the leftover sales were several months ago.

Honorary medics of the lost light! Here's the art for the sticker sheet I made for the @medicalgradezine

[medicalgradezine]

do you plan on selling one of one items? Like not the bundle but you can the single item you want? I missed the pre-order and left-over. And Nickel merch is so hard to come by. 😭

All artists own the rights to the merch they created so you would need to reach out to the individual artist in question to see if they would be willing to make and sell their design outside of our initial zine sales.

[medicalgradezine]

Is there a place where we can still buy a digital copy of the zine?

Hi, sorry but we are officially done with all sales!

[synchros]

sometimes you think you posted art already but actually didn't >_> piece I did a while ago for the Medical Grade fanbook!

Leftover sales are closing at 11:59 PM PST tonight!

Leftover Sales Closing Soon

Heads up that Leftover Sales will be closing July 5th!

We're closing the leftover sales as we cannot leave the bigcartel store open indefinitely, so if you have been waiting to grab any of the leftover merch now is the time!

The second and final donation to Doctors Without Borders will be made shortly after leftover sales close.

There will be one last update after leftover sales close as well, so stay tuned!

One of my charms came broken T_T

Hi, please email us about this! Tumblr asks aren't a good venue to discuss broken merch/replacements, for problems like this you need to reach out through email.

Hi, Mod Candy here! Apologies for the slowness on leftover sales; until very recently I was dealing with health complications that were making it difficult to function. Things are better now so I'll resume activity as normal and start shipping out all outstanding orders! Thank you for your patience!

Zine piece for @medicalgradezine

Thanks for having me!!

Donation to Doctors Without Borders sent

Hello all! All Leftover sales have been shipped out; we still have a lot of leftover stock left, but since Doctors Without Borders is currently triple-matching any donations, we figured now is a good time to send the first donation amount!

Thanks to everyone's enthusiasm and generosity in supporting this zine, we managed to raise and donate $14,666.75 to Doctors Without Borders!

This is absolutely incredible and we cannot thank you all enough for supporting this zine and making this happen!

Leftover sales are still open, and any purchases made after this will still have the proceeds donated to Doctors Without Borders, in smaller batches.

We just wanted to get this main donation amount sent now because of the donation being triple-matched (which would have ended May 15th).

Thank you all again for making this possible! This fandom truly is amazing! 🚑💖
