Well, I was keeping my fingers crossed, but its officially a bust.

Pop and I worked our respective busts off to get at least the international Wyrm orders done and out before the postal rate increase. The heads are s ulpted, painted and ready to attach to their fluffy bodies. The bodies are cut, sewn, and done/mailed out to me from her place.

Unfortunately, despite using expedited shipping, they did NOT show up yesterday, nor today. I am REALLy hoping they come Monday, or I'm going to have to hassle the PO to find out where the he11 the package is.

And the postal rate increase becomes effective on the 27th. Which is tomorrow.

Which means, despite my and my Seamstress's very best efforts, we have been Wyrm-blocked by the postal service.

Sooooooo.....that's it. I am profoundly sorry to my international buyers, but regrettably, I'm not going to be able to get the packages out before the price hike. I had planned on pulling an all-nighter last night, since the bodies should have arrived friday. The best answer I've gotten so far is it may have gotten "lost" in the shuffle of people trying to beat the price increase. Supposedly, it should be here Monday.

The downside of this is obvious....I will have to go through these orders one by one and see what the price difference in shipping is. I'll post a list, with amounts for shipping owed. Hopefully it won't be too bad. In the case of handlers deciding they would rather opt out than pay the difference in shipping, please contact me asap. I will try my best to work something out. Again, I am very sorry, but this was a situation beyond my control.

However, there IS an upside to all of this. Number one, Zia will now have a chance to complete the cards, which will be printed, laminated, and sent with the Wyrms. The packages will also possibly have a small addition that I have been planning to include as part of all orders from this point on. Depends on me getting them printed in time.


For now, I'm going to call it an 'early' night. I've been pulling 2-3 am nights trying to get everything done for the deadline, so I'm a bit fragged. Going to use the following week to take care of some paperwork and writing, and give the hands a break from sculpting.

Everyone have a good night, stay warm, and hopefully I'll have some good news and Wyrm photos in a day or two.

Cheers!

Oh dear this is horriable... This is why I despise the UPS/Shipping company their always so late and time ruining. And I have to feel for the international handlers that have to pay what double? I kinda think I should chip in a few dollars so you guys can cover the cost a bit but I don't know if I can :/

I too would be happy to chip in towards the Overseas Handler shipping fund.

[Deadly Nightshade]

That is terrible news, I am sorry to hear that! <3 ;n;
I hope it's not too much, it will be kinda hard to pay it all. ;n;

[Hippie_Otter]

That's a bit of a bummer, but you tried your best.
*crosses fingers that price rise is not overboard.*

I agree as well; if any of the international handlers need a hand just send me a PM and I can help out.

It's amazing how much dedication you've put into these HM, and it's obvious you care so much about your handlers. The lengths you went to to ensure they wouldn't have to pay more is applaudable.
