Caen kickstarter pledge
Caen kickstarter pledge Posted on [03/03/2023] à 23:38

When will I receive my Caen kickstarter pledge. I live in England and have not received it.

It is really annoying that I receive an email from DPG telling me the CAEN set is on sale on the store and would i like to buiy it, when I have not yet received my package in the UK which I paid for last year. Kickstarter funders provided the finance for this to happen but seem to be behind commercial and financial demands. HOP, nah not backing that when I am treated like this.

Yes, really annoying! Following updates I was hoping to have received before the end of Feb, but no communication at all. I contacted DPG 22 Feb and they emailed that Zatu Games were handling UK distribution and it had not yet started, but would soon!?.!?

I am sorry you are upset with the speed of UK fulfillment, as a US backer I have nothing but sympathy for having to wait while others play the game. However, I do not have any sympathy for being upset by this.


The UK fulfillment is not handled by DPG's EU fulfillment center (which I think is their EU warehouse, but I could be wrong). Instead, a separate set of product was sent to Zatu in the UK. This is for many reasons (shipping/customs issues and cost). So, how long it takes to get the product through UK customs and into Zatu's warehouse and then sorted/packaged/shipped is independent of what happens in the EU. Be glad you are not in the US, where the last campaign took MONTHS before the product finally arrived at the fulfillment center and then Funagain took months to get the stuff out the door.


DPG has always put stuff on sale in the EU once EU shipment is completed, and all shipping issues have been addressed (once the "extra product" is no longer needed to deal with shipping damage, etc.). After all, there is no guarantee in a DPG campaign that you will get your product before anyone can purchase the stuff in retail. Instead, you get a big discount on the cost of what you get and a better rate for shipping compared to buying it from DPG's webstore. Sorry if that came as a surprise for you, but that is hardly news for DPG kickstarters.

Thank you for explaining the current situation. Makes a lot more sense now – Cheers 😀

Hi

I just got an update by Zatu, shipping will be done for UK by the end of the week


Caen kickstarter pledge Posted on [09/03/2023] à 18:25

Had no comms at all from Zatu.


Caen kickstarter pledge Posted on [10/03/2023] à 00:38

Nothing from Zatu games. Not even an email saying Caen kickstarter has been dispatched.


Caen kickstarter pledge Posted on [10/03/2023] à 02:46

Does anyone know where I can find info on US fulfillment? I expect it to be later than Europe but I wasn't sure what the timeframe is supposed to be.


Caen kickstarter pledge Posted on [10/03/2023] à 10:23

Anyone know which carrier Zatu using

I have a message from DPD local saying they have delivered a parcel to a strange address

It lists contexts as air pump though?!

Yes same here – given that we have been told that they would start to dispatched at the end of this week


Caen kickstarter pledge Posted on [10/03/2023] à 15:38

Still no comms or product from ZATU, did they confirm the end of which week they were talking about? Please just a realistic delivery date, is that really a big ask?


Unfortunately this is probably the best Kickstarter for physical product that i have been on recently, and together with the absolute disregard for their backers and from others like Mythic games, Monolith and Lazy Squire Games and is the reason i will no longer be supporting any physical kickstarters in the future.


Caen kickstarter pledge Posted on [10/03/2023] à 15:57

This is my first experience of a Kickstarter so I am currently just happy to be receiving the Battle of Caen soon. What concerns me the most is that I understand that future kick-starters will be run from the ZATU web site. Given their total lack of service and their un-wiliness to engage with valid questions, it does not give me any confidence for the next Kickstarter

US backer waiting here as well. Unfortunately the slow delivery and poor / no communication is normal with this company. I’ve never not received a reward… but they are slowwwwww. The couple times I’ve had damaged or missing components, they’ve been dealt with effectively (over the course of a couple months).


Caen kickstarter pledge Posted on [11/03/2023] à 09:21

UK backer here.


Got an email this morning from Royal Mail to say that::)


"We've received your parcel from Our Warehouse. Delivery is due:


Monday, 13 March 2023*


by


3:00pm* "


As I'm not expecting anything else to be delivered it seems that the UK delivery is under way.


Looking forward to Monday!:)


Caen kickstarter pledge Posted on [11/03/2023] à 10:21

My friend Rod got a text the other day saying his CAEN package will be delivered on Monday but so far I haven't heard anything, nothing, not a thing


When will I get my Kickstarter fulfilled guys?


Caen kickstarter pledge Posted on [11/03/2023] à 12:37

Yeah I got a Royal mail delivery notice out of the blue this morning….fingers crossed!


Caen kickstarter pledge Posted on [11/03/2023] à 14:20

Good if things are starting to happen.

I haven't heard anything yet

Really hoping it isn't much longer


Caen kickstarter pledge Posted on [11/03/2023] à 15:55

Still waiting for conformation (in the UK)


Caen kickstarter pledge Posted on [11/03/2023] à 16:46

I must be lucky had a email this morning and the parcel arrive 3 hours later.


JB.
