In thanks for your effort in getting us here, I've got a 10% discount code for you: THANKSFAM
This discount is for all Patrons and expires at the end of January. Once new tiers launch, $20+ tiers will get a 10% discount on the store as a tier perk.
This is a soft launch for Patrons -- the shop is public, but I won't be promoting it until Monday when I launch the new site (or at least, when I plan to). As we go forward I'll be introducing new products and probably involving Influencers in the process. For now, there are shirts, mugs, a couple stickers, and a few prints.
(There are some weird things going on with the navigation -- there are categories with no products showing -- but I don't have much control over that and I hope those bugs will shake out as Spring's cache updates.)
All orders are produced and shipped by Spring (formerly Teespring). If you don't like the product that you receive, PLEASE request a refund, and then let me know what was weird about the product so that I can either fix it or discontinue it. It's really important to me that the products available in the shop are high quality, look good, and are designed well. If I can fix the design to make it good, I will. If I can't get the product to meet my quality standards, I would rather discontinue it.
Also: The more items are purchased, the higher my seller's "trust ranking" will be within Spring's system. At certain trust levels, they "unlock" other products such as embroidered apparel and -- yes, finally -- enamel pins.
So this is the first step toward cooler things. Thank you so much for getting us here!

Well, turns out as soon as I changed my region to EU and currency to EUR this option magically vanished - I guess I really wasn't their target...

I appreciate this feedback! Unfortunately since the Spring platform handles all the payment processing and fulfillment, I can't turn off the Afterpay option. It's also something that's becoming more prevalent across most PDO platforms, and so unless (until?) I'm able to migrate to my own platform, this will have to be a compromise that must be made to use a POD platform.

It might be just a minor thing, but the mere mention of "Pay in 4 payments of $blah with afterpay" below the "Add to cart" button is a big red flag for any kind of store for me... :( (Yeah, I know I'm not the target demographic, but that's just preying on the financially weak...)
