I suspect the cost of returning it, especially with it being an international order, is too high to be worth it if The Giant or Ookoodook has to pay for it, and expecting you to pay for fixing their mistake (especially when you could have just said nothing and kept it) would be silly. Further, unless it's labeled with another address and it's the delivery service that screwed up, I doubt there's any way to determine who (if anyone) the "rightful" recipient is.

You can message Rich through Kickstarter if you want, but my guess is that his response will amount to "Oops. *shrug* Enjoy your accidental bounty." If it is a package meant for someone else, whoever it is will just have to message Rich to resolve things separately.

If it were something expensive (whole story package) or unique (crayon drawing), the answer might be different, but just a swag pack hardly seems worth the bother of sending back.

However, last Wednesday I recieved two of each of those.

I was going to say I saw someone else with the same issue on the Kickstarter page, but since you're in the Netherlands I'm going to guess you are Arne Turpijn. So I imagine it's an isolated event; while I'm sure Rich would appreciate a heads-up, I expect you should just count yourself lucky and not worry too much about it.

Mmm Dutch, now only to find out where you live so I can steal the second package mwoahahahaha.

No what the others say is probably true. Pick it up with Rich, he's the boss

Both envelopes were addressed to me.
I just noticed one of the packing slips contains the line 'Shipped on 5/23/2012 using USPS International Priority: [code]', while the other packing slip doesn't. Except for that line, the packing slips are the same.

I'm not Arne Turpijn, so apparently I'm not the only one with double 'swag'...

Anyway, I contacted Mr. Burlew via Kickstarter, so I'll just wait and see what he's going to say.

My package arrived, and it all seems to be in order. Shipped May 29th, arrived ityesterday. From the US to Denmark. How'd you pull that one off?

Now I just need to find an 8"x10" frame for the art, it looks pretty good. Snips, Snails, and Dragon Tails was pretty good, too, and lived up to its name a bit more than I thought. My OOTS book collection is now complete again.

Anyway, nicely done with the Kickstarter, at least from where I'm sitting.

Just checking in, but has anybody from Canada received an unsigned book package yet? Mine was the $26 reward, so...

Might be at the bottom of the pile; I didn't pledge til a week and a half before the end of the drive, or something like that.

Canada's postal system can be kind of slow/crappy, I wouldn't be too worried yet.

In other news, I've almost completed making all of the Monster Minis, and I've found that some of the smaller ones don't have the cutting lines on the bottom in the best position. One of them is a bit too close to the fold. It's not a big deal, you just don't cut on the line, but I thought I'd let people know.

Also, I've been told by my partner to request at least one riding cat for the next set : )

Does anyone know what Rich's position is on publicly sharing his "Make Your Own" AMFES PDF that he released but with our own custom art on it?

(Yes I'm aware he asked us to not share them and I certainly wouldn't share the "Make Your Own" PDF as is. I'm purely asking about that file filled in with custom art.)

On the Kickstarter page, he said that would be fine.

I actually was the one how asked him about it, mentioning the art thread specifically. He said that was fine and was why he shared them, although all of my art's 40k stuff since, I may wander back to Planescape and Eberron soon if time allows.

No, we have no specific news of where they're at. Did you order the Sticky Shticks? Packages with those won't begin shipping for a while yet. Also, some people have gotten their packages without getting an email (so check your spam filter).

I got an email last night saying that my autographed book reward package has shipped.

However, the link provided for tracking, "www.upsp.com/shipping/trackandconfirm.htm" , has a typo; it should of course be www.usps.com/shipping/trackandconfirm.htm . So, don't panic if you click on the link in your email and it doesn't work properly.

Really? Oh man, now I have to check BOTH of my emails every hour!

... nope. Still nothing. I did get a message that my dad accidentally sent to my no-longer-used email, though. I was so excited when I saw a new message, too.

No news yet on my $25-dollar-plus-a-book pledge yet. Hoping it comes soon, since my package didn't include Sticky Schticks...

Why wait in line at the post office when you can schedule a pickup? I mean it is free to do and it is very useful.

Got my Colouring books today (in Canada).

Probably the first colouring book ever with the word "familicide" in it.

Is it supposed to be trackable?

Just got the signed books today.. And looks like the Giant added a drawing of a character to each signed book.

Here's a link to a photo I've taken of the signature page if any of guys wants to see what it looks like.

I got a mail about some usps stuff, but I think it is spam. My pledge has the Sticky Schticks, so it can't be that. But I think I should tell everyone to check the mail for clues before clicking on any link.

I didnt buy the Sticky Schticks but I got something on the 26th and I thought it was spam:
Postal notification,
Our company’s courier couldn’t deliver your parcel.
Reason\Wrong data delivery.
LOCATION OF YOUR ITEM:San Jose
DELIVERY STATUS: sorting
SERVICE: Express Mail
NUMBER OF YOUR ITEM:U297122441NU
FEATURES: No
Now, I double checked my address in Kickstarter and it's alright (Australia)
Should I be worried?

My e-mail came from "ship.manager@ookoodook.com". If you've got that, it's certainly not spam. I can't say one way or another on the UPS stuff.
