When will shipping be charged?
We will charge shipping in the post-project survey after the project closes. Your specific shipping fee will be based on the final weight of your order and your location - the packed weight for the box kits should be around 2.8 lbs. Please factor the estimated shipping costs (detailed in the project) into the total price of the reward if you are reserving a box kit; the other reward tiers are all digital delivery, and so will not have shipping costs.

When will my rewards mail out?
After the project closes, BackerKit allows two weeks to process all the payments and transfer the funds. Once we receive the project funds, we send the backer surveys. This will allow us to get mailing addresses for folks who got box kits, which will be getting packed and ready to ship during that time. The first round of email fulfillment for printable project files or digital subscriptions will be sent out in the first week of April, and the box kits by around the middle of April.

How do you ship?
We ship via USPS. For US-based backers that means your package will be delivered to you mailbox by your mail person. For international backers that means that our US Postal Service gets the package to your country and then your local post delivers to you.

Will there be more box kits for the Romanesque and Gothic story books?
That is the plan, and the impetus behind this particular campaign. By starting with one box kit for the Celtic style stories, we’re laying the groundwork for being able to have do-it-yourself kit products for the whole series over the next year that will be available through the Tamburn Manor site, and a reusable format for subsequent story cycles. Your feedback will be very helpful!

Will there be a physical letter subscription option for the monthly illuminations?
Yes; that is another goal we have that we’re getting started with this campaign. The Knight of the Round Table tier will form the basis for this content, which will be available first (and throughout the year) as digital print-it-yourself art for illuminating and collecting, but will also be available through the Tamburn Manor site as a monthly letter subscription program “Letters from Camelot” beginning in April or May of this year. Backers who sign up now for the digital subscription through this campaign will be able to get started early and will get a discount code if they want to upgrade at that time for the hard-copy monthly letter program. You’ll be able to find that at https://www.tamburnmanor.com in the next couple of months if you’re interested.

Is the only way to get the box kit with the Grail Knight level? Will there be more boxes available in the future for other stories?
The $100 subscription level is for all the courses and the 6 story book files over the next 12 months. There is no physical kit available for the whole program at this time; the kit we’re funding with this project is sort of a prototype for just the first two story books. There would eventually be two other kits in the series, one for the Romanesque stories and one for the Gothic ones, but those are a few months off down the road. If you want to do the whole program in hard-copy kit form, go with just the box kit now (which includes the first 1/3 of the digital subscription program) and the subsequent box kits should be available on the tamburnmanor.com site by the time you’re done with the first box.

When will my rewards mail out?
We’re in the process of getting all the initial material up on the hosting site and ready for distribution, and will begin packing the boxes next week. The first round of email fulfillment for printable project files or digital subscriptions will be sent out in the first week of April (target is around April 3), and the box kits by around the middle of April (target is between April 9th and April 14th).

Do you make anything like this for younger kids?
Yes, I recommend the full book program for ages 10 and up (roughly), though you could do it with younger kids if you’re helping them out. The coloring pages subscription is great for kids a little younger, around 8-10. For even younger, I have a monthly snail-mail club that just introduces medieval manuscript arts, with simple coloring projects and crafts for new readers. You can find the details at https://www.tamburnmanor.com/wonderbookletters. That would be a great starting point to help get younger children interested and ready to tackle a project like the Arthuriad a year or two down the road.

What is BackerKit?
BackerKit is a service that crowdfunded project creators use to keep track of hundreds to tens of thousands of backers—from shipping details, pledge levels, preferences and quantities, whether they have paid or had their card declined, special notes, and everything in between!
The BackerKit software and support team is independent from the campaign’s project team—BackerKit does not handle the actual reward shipping. For more information about the preparation or delivery status of your rewards, please check the project's updates page.
How does BackerKit work?
After the campaign ends, the project creator will send you an email with a unique link to your survey. You can check out a walkthrough of the process here.
I never received my invitation. How do I complete the survey?
The most common reasons for not receiving a survey email is that you may be checking an email inbox different from the email address you used to sign up with Kickstarter, Indiegogo or Tilt Pro account, or it may be caught in your spam filter.
Confirm that the email address you are searching matches the email address tied to your Kickstarter, Indiegogo, or Tilt Pro account. If that doesn’t work, then try checking your spam, junk or promotions folders. You can also search for "backerkit” in your inbox.
To resend the survey to yourself, visit the project page and input the email address associated with your Kickstarter, Indiegogo or Tilt Pro account.
How do I update my shipping address?
BackerKit allows you to update your shipping address until the shipping addresses are locked by the project creator. To update your address, go back to your BackerKit survey by inputting your email here.
When will my order be shipped, charged or locked?
That is handled directly by the project creator. BackerKit functions independently of the project itself, so we do not have control of their physical shipping timeline. If you want to check on the project’s status, we recommend reading over the project's updates page.
I completed the survey, but haven't received my rewards yet. When will they arrive?
As BackerKit does not actually handle any rewards or shipping, the best way to stay updated on the shipping timeline would be to check out the project's updates page.
