Surprise! Tictail shop open!

I hope next time I'll be able to get Wayfinding. I got All the Days like two years ago, and love it and still re-read it. Having the comic in your hand makes it so much better!

Aw, yeah, the APE site is very empty, so that makes sense now I guess. Hm, well, I will have to poke around the other two more and see if there's anything else cool going on that'll sway me. It feels very weird that the move from near-SF to San Jose would make such an impact, since both are near airports, it's only like a hour drive. What a difference a little distance makes!

Stix

Oh thank you! I was just scared it was going to cost you money or something!

Ratticuss

just ordered wayfinding ! pleased that i'm able to support you and also finally own some of your art in my home :)

We realized that a bunch of old orders were never "completed" through tictail, so we had to click a button saying it was shipped to clear it and that automatically sent out an email. Sorry for the confusion!

APE used to be really good but they moved it to San Jose from San Francisco a few years ago and it kinda died lol; I'm only doing it this year because it's super local and I'm splitting the booth. There's always still been a bit of interested stuff but every year it gets smaller. YaoiCon I'm worried is about to go thru the same thing since they just did the same thing, moved the con from up close to SF airport down to San Jose, so it might still have good vendors this year but I would bet attendance will drop. Crunchyroll is a first year convention and those could go either way, but I don't anticipate anything wild honestly. If these weren't local for me the only one I might still be attending is YaoiCon lol, just because it's my thing XD Sorry I guesss this post is kind of a downer... I think APE is the cheapest one so that might be the best perk haha

The one book I've literally been stalking for years, now, is the one that keeps getting out of stock (All the Days). Sigh. I hope you'll decide/be able to attend a convention in Europe, one day, and I'll have my chances there. :)

I've just got a message saying my order has shipped but I already received it 2 months ago? It's Wayfinding

Ratticuss

Actually, on that note, as someone who has never actually been to a convention... anyone have any suggestions of which one to go to? I'm thinking APE since since the others are more anime-centric?

Stix

Holy shit all of those conventions are actually nearby for me! EXCITE.

Stix

Oh!! That would be so awesome, I'm sure many others would appreciate it :) (I do already know that I would like to purchase the rest of the charms (Salty, Spicy, Savory, Umami, Sour), could you put them aside for Yaoicon? I'd appreciate it sooo much!! :)) )

Rml

Oh my god! I would love to get one. I alrealdy made an order, so... what can I do? :3

Jutaki

I still have plenty of most of them except Salty; he turned out to be really popular so I only have five of him left. I'm thinkin of doing kind of a reservation thing for patrons who are going to be at those conventions so I might be able to hold anything you'd want :)

Reapersun

We actually still have a couple extra that we held back in case some get lost in the mail; if you let me know when you're online again we can add a couple of those so you can grab one? If you're still interested in grabbing one, that is~ We can also combo the shipping for you if you've already made another order~

Reapersun

Good bye my savings. Pity that All the Days are out of stock T_T.

Jutaki

Thanks for your reply!! I'm so glad I got the Sweet charm then! I'm excited for the new thing hehe. Do you have a few charms of other characters left that you'd bring to Yaoicon? Thanks again :)

Rml

I can't afford it rn, but hopefully I will next time you open!!

Oh yay!

mira g

Yup, I'm gonna bring what's left of my Sweet Bear stuff to YaoiCon but maybe not much of it to Crunchy; I wasn't able to restock charms but I'll have enamel pins and the preview books, plus a new secret thing. As for online, I'll put up what's left after my last con in October, and maybe work on a few new things then too :)))))

Reapersun

You've made the end of a hellish work day so much better

Natalie E

Awesome! Do you plan on having Sweet Bear-related items at Crunchyroll expo/Yaoicon/APE by the way? And on your tictail shop in the future? Thanks :)

Rml

Yup, eventually, but not for a long while; the inventory is all at my house and not in Nevada where my helper ships from, so I have to check them over when I get home and make sure there's no serious misprints, then ship some of them over.

Reapersun

Wow, thank you! Will "The Persistent Hunter" eventually be going there as well?
