💖Sunshineへようこそ! a 2019 Club Sunshine Desk Calendar is now up for pre-order! Featuring 12 lovely artists, and a different girl for each month!
🍾 Pre-orders close December 19th! To ship in time for the New Year! 🍾
We've received a couple of messages the past few days so I'm making this post to address those concerns! The second round of zines, in addition to some leftovers, were shipped mid-late July. As with the first round, we wanted to wait a few weeks for international packages to be delivered (or reported as missing/lost/damaged) so we could know the final total and distribute payments. August and September were more hectic for me than I had anticipated—between preparing for a move and school starting However, please know it has been weighing on my mind! I was actually planning to send an email yesterday when a personal crisis popped up. I will be getting that email out by the end of the week! It's been a long road with the project so we thank you so much for your patience! We also want to be properly tied up so I promise you'll hear from us in the next few days!
hello! are all the packages sent out now?
For the most part. I believe there is one or two people we have attempted contacting due to some problem but haven’t received responses from.As for where the project is, we’re pretty much wrapped up.We will be waiting a couple more weeks for damaged/missing item reports (international orders), then figuring the finances for all the artists and -- done! :)
Hello everyone! We’ve received several inquiries and I want to do our best to keep you in the loop! We had a series of file related problems (formatting changes and then a mistakenly sent error message which led to all sorts of confusion) which delayed printing a couple of weeks after having placed our order. It was resolved a short while ago and the books are set to ship out to us by the 10th. We will be meeting up to pack and ship them to you shortly after they arrive. Thank you so much for your patience and understanding with the unexpected delays!
For those of you who have preordered books this second round (on bigcartel) - We ran into a few bumps, but the order has been placed and should arrive before the end of the month. We’ll keep you posted here and you’ll receive an emailed tracking number when your package ships. While I would have liked to give more advanced notice, preorders have been open for quite a chunk of time, weeks longer than originally intended. Since we have placed the order for a set amount of books, there are a limited number left available. We will not be reprinting again, so if you want a physical copy - it’s now or never! Digital copy continues to be available and will be until we have completely wrapped up (ship out these books!).
Hi everyone! Just wanted to give you a heads up that all 3 organizers are away on vacation or at conventions at the moment, so communication will be slow until around mid June!
Hi! I placed an order for the pre-sale and I also snagged one of the full bundles when they were released on the 6th. I was just wondering if the packages were going to be sent out separately or together once the reprint of the zine is sent out?
If you ordered a preorder item in the same order as an item that is in stock, they will be mailed together when the preorder item becomes available (Since you only paid for one postage). Hope that helps!
Hello! I've placed my order in 27th of April. As I understand, it'a a second printing. The thing that bothers me though, when will I get the tracking number? In June? Thanks in advance.
Hi there ! You will get a tracking number e-mailed to you when your package ships. We anticipate mailing out in mid-June :) We’ll also keep this blog updated~
All other report dates have passed, but MAY 5TH is the last day to report damaged/missing international bundle orders! ———
Second run PREORDER books (without gold foil, to be shipped in mid-June) and DIGITAL PDF COPIES will continue to be available until at least May 11th, but possibly longer - stay tuned.

In the interest of fairness for those with prior commitments and fans across the globe, half of the remaining quantity of each item will be listed on Saturday May 6th at 11 AM EDT and the remaining half 12 hours later at 11 PM EDT. Use this clock to avoid confusion!

A: There are FOUR new listings. They are already up in the store for VIEWING ONLY if you want to preview them.
→ First Run Books (Gold Foil Cover) ❄ $15 Perfect, $12 Imperfect EASILY DISTINGUISHABLE from 2nd run preorder books by product name + GIF image! Use dropdown on listing to select Perfect or Imperfect. It will automatically be set to Perfect until those sell out. The second photo on the listing shows examples of imperfections (discoloration, small dents/cracks).
→ Full Set of Bundle Merch + Ltd. Edition Enamel Pin ❄ $20 Includes lanyard, both heart buttons, both charms, and the enamel pin. → Charm + Button Set / Charm Set ❄ $10 Charms Only / $16 Charms & Buttons. Use dropdown on listing to select an option. Both charms OR both charms with both buttons. → Limited Edition Enamel Pin $5 Perfect, $4.50 Imperfect Use dropdown on listing to select Perfect or Imperfect. It will automatically be set to Perfect until those sell out. The second photo on the listing shows examples of minor imperfections (unclean cuts, tiny dents). Q: How much is available? A: Quantities of items vary greatly from 6 to 49. For reference quantities go as follows: Enamel Pins > Charms > Buttons > Lanyards > Books > Imperfect (Books + Pins) Please try to avoid making multiple separate purchases. If you do, it’s ok but it’s a real pain in the butt on our end so we will not be refunding the additional shipping you pay by making multiple separate orders on May 6th. Q: How can I pay? A: Bigcartel accepts PayPal and Stripe (credit cards). Q: Do you ship internationally? A: Yes we do! The prices are the cheapest available and are AT COST (plus a maximum of .50 for packaging). Unfortunately the rates are beyond our control. We also took a bit of a loss last round on heavier packages, so prices now reflect actual costs.
Gold foil books are gone, along with full bundle merch sets, but at the time of writing this there are still some charm sets up for grabs - ONE with buttons, and about a dozen enamel pins.
hi!! thank u guys for being really clear about relisting the 1st round zines and merch!! i didnt find out about this zine until like 3 weeks ago so im v excited that i was able to grab some stuff!! im not sure if this was answered before but how long does shipping within the US take? i live in california if that helps
No prob!! There's all sorts of reasons why people may have missed out and I just wanted everyone to have a fair chance u vuIf you ordered only a book, it will be shipped media mail (2-9 days). If your order include anything that's not a book, it will go first class (3-5 days).
If it says coming soon, does that mean the first half sold out? Thanks!
Yep!! If it says coming soon (or sold out if I haven't updated it yet) then the first half is all bought up! Will have more of everything tonight~
