my all in was 415 + 30 shipping = 445 paid.
now upping to 20 figures to avoid supply chain: 500-445=55 dollars, shipping on the video is 2 dollars by figure. so my shipping additionally should be 2 more dollars. but this reflects me owing 85 dollars. rather than 57. this doesnt seem right. explain it to me like i'm five. I don't think backerkit necessarily "knows" that that 415 was your pledge and 30 was your shipping, so the whole 445 is used as a credit that goes towards your new $500 total. So like you said, that's $55. and then, looks your shipping is still $30 even with the added stuff. It SEEMs like you're being asked to double dip on shipping but you're not, your previous 30 was just put towards the credit off your new pledge. I think that explains it?

55 as your difference + 30 for shipping is where the 85 comes from.
I think what's going on is you're thinking your shipping is already paid for and you only have to cover the extra figure being added. But that's not that case, because your original shipping cost was included in the 445 credit off the 500. So that 30 bucks stopping being dedicated to shipping and became part of what paid off your upgraded pledge.

Yeah, I don't totally understand the per-figure value change between the two if I'm honest. Based on this you get a better deal per figure with the 19 figure all-in than you do with the pick 20.

I would try to figure it out and explain it but I don't really think I'm going to stick up for anything related to this campaign for a while. I feel burned and it's going to take me a while to get over it. 3DJoes can do his own explaining.

Maybe it helps even out the orders, rather than somebody buying multiples of a few figures. |

Yeah, that makes sense actually. In the moment I was only thinking about volume of figures and wasn't considering it an incentive to better support an even distribution of figures manufactured.

Im fine paying 25 bucks more for the 20th figure. Im not willing to pay 85. That's insane.
Im going to have to really look at changing to a lower tier like two pick 10s. I don't know. This is majorly disappointing. |

Two pick 10s is out.
Man. Yeah im pretty disappointed. It looks like im getting my all in and not putting any more money into the campaign. I feel like im being punished for going from all in to doing pick 20. I get the all in has better pricing to make all the figures. Just let me pick my figures for my all in. Im sure there are a ton of people who want to do what i want to do with a character they dont want. |
