Just posted by Phil over on the KS:

Quote:
We've seen activity from the warehouse, but we have no confirmation that packages are in the system and on their way. What we know for sure: The fulfillment warehouse has started the work.

Just as soon as we get more info, we will share. At the moment, the fulfillment warehouse is working on things.
Guessing from that it was a good old fashioned backlog.

We have no control over the fulfillment warehouse. We work closely with them, to plan the packing and shipping of orders, but then we are at the mercy of the fulfillment process and schedules.

We share the info we have, as we receive it. We also contact them regularly for info. At the moment, it seems, there is a lot of work happening and packages are flowing as fast as they can manage.

I know...if I came across as anything other than understanding / signal-boosting, you've got my apologies.

Are you still using the facility in Michigan? They did good work with Minis Set 2.

Shipping is confirmed, repeat shipping is confirmed. Phil posted in-flight a couple minutes ago:

https://www.kickstarter.com/projects.../posts/2580595

They're a little over 500 packages in, which puts them at most a third of the way done; 1400 KS backers + ??? who joined during the Backerkit phase.

You say that like it's a bad thing! Have they given any indication of packages per day?

I'll trust your numbers...one because they're bigger, but two because all I have is secondhand info from Phil posting on KS.

Before 2007, I worked in a book distribution warehouse. Fedex (like in this case with SJG), leaves a trailer at the warehouse and picks it up when full or at end of day depending on contract and number of orders. On the fulfillment side, for US orders, there is no benny for sorting by state, so are most likely done in order of when they were placed or last modified. That said, my TFT decks of destiny order will most likely be one of the last shipped because I keep adding to it.

No notification yet, but Fedex just delivered mine.

Playmats were folded, but appear to be in fine shape.

Box art looks fantastic!
