Hey folks! Quick shipping update for you. Don't worry, it's all good news.
We're still exactly on schedule, and the printer is shipping 40+ pallets of books to our UK warehouse this week. They've kindly provided us some photos of them to share with you, because who doesn't enjoy pictures of pallets of books?
These are now leaving the printer in Europe on two big trucks, bound for the UK. From there, half the shipment then goes on a ship to our US warehouse where North American orders will be fulfilled from, and the other half are fulfilled to the rest of the world directly from our UK warehouse.
With the world doing what the world is doing right now, we have no idea how long it will actually take to move all these books around, but we haven't run into any delays in our schedule yet, and we're hopeful that our luck will continue! I would imagine that UK backers will be the first to get their books (because that's how geography works). North American backers will take a little longer (because, again, that's how geography works). But we're on schedule, everything going according to plan, and we're super excited to get these books into your hands!
Oh, and one last thing. You may notice in the photos below that the regular books below have ribbons. Yep, FREE UPGRADE! We kept this secret until now as we wanted to surprise you, but it turned out that it didn't cost us much more to add the ribbons, so we did. Free ribbons for everybody!
That's it from me for the moment. I'll update you when the books arrive at our UK warehouse.
