Thanks Phil, that gives me a lot more confidence in how it's all coming together.

Oof. Those shipping charges are going to get out of hand in a hurry for "Many Minis" style backers. And while it's only $0.30 / transaction, those could add up too compared to $0.30 / backer.

I'm glad to see the 'Yes, Backerkit' answer in one of Phil's posts; that'll ameliorate the problem a good deal, since that allows them to charge shipping based on the total package, not individual components. But it is going to make backing a "The Price is Right" guessing game of 'If I'm being charged X for shipping, and can reasonably expect the actual charge to be Y, then I can back this many sets now, pick up the rest in Backerkit with the overage, and be reasonably confident of getting close without going over.

I just hope it doesn't come back to bite us, as we've got a pretty meaty initial goal to get over. I have every faith that we can do it, but that doesn't mean I won't worry until we do.
