Physical Comics Store Soft Launch
Added 2023-02-11 23:39:14 +0000 UTCMy dear patrons! I finally clicked the launch button on the physical comics listing on gumroad.
Check it out ➡️ https://wintonkidd.gumroad.com/l/physicalcomics
Thank you all for helping make this possible--including voting on your favorite postcards prints! I opted to print the two most voted for ones and I'll just include a random one with each order! 🎲
Since this is a soft launch I really want your feedback if you make a purchase!
Does the multi-item listings make sense? Could you figure out how to add multiple items to cart, etc.
Also, if for any reason you're dissatisfied with the comics, how they were shipped, anything at all, please let me know! All feedback is welcome and I want to make sure you're satisfied with your order.
I'm hoping to smooth over some of the bumpines and inconsistencies by including a lot of freebies with each order 💝
You might find an inkjet comic or a b-grade/flawed print version of a comic as well as stickers and postcards while supplies last. My x-acto knife slips sometimes 😒
These freebies are intended to be just for patrons and while I can't make the listing hidden/private, I won't announce the store formally on twitter for at least a week so I'm not totally overwhelmed by orders at first. :)
Happy Saturday!
💛Winton

2023-02-22 03:55:10 +0000 UTCYeah I don’t really bind the bulge, or the light transparency, just wanted you to know, in case the test prints didn’t exhibit those traits. And a replacement would be awesome! I was planning on ordering another comic tomorrow, so if you can send both in the same package that could save you dealing with another shipping label.

2023-02-20 02:27:42 +0000 UTCThanks for letting me know about this, first the printing error, because I should have caught that but didn't. If you want a refund for that I can do that or otherwise send you a copy that is corrected. Looks like something that just happened with my print files during all of my changes and I didn't catch. What you bring up about book not quite laying flat is unfortunately just what happens when they have so many pages. There's a bit of a sweet spot of page count that doesn't make it bulge too much. You noted the pages can be a little translucent in places and that's just because I tried to use a slightly lighter weight paper to make the folding issue not so severe. Thanks again for writing all this out Chase! I'll be posting an update soon to figure out what to do about the misprints!

2023-02-20 02:07:30 +0000 UTCHi! Don’t know if this is the right place for feedback, but I just wanted to share my thoughts! I received my comic (fitting for a lady) yesterday, shipping was fast and nothing was damaged. (The “do not bend written on envelope, was very legible and impossible to miss which is always good for this kind of package) the freebies are wonderful and high quality. The comic book itself is very high quality, comparing it directly to the digital files shows next to no loss in resolution. (Though in specific lighting the pages can be a bit see through in white sections.) The staple binding,does bulge a little at the spine and the book does not quite like sitting flat. (it tends to sit open a little at the center pages of the book.) I tend to shelf things pretty compactly so this shouldn’t be an issue for me. The one unfortunate error is the first page was put in backwards, so page 2 comes first then page 1. Overall I love it, it’s one of my favorite comics ever, (I have a massive hyper fixation on Victorian and Edwardian times.) and all the bonus sketches and “behind scenes” stuff is awesome. Thanks so much for making psychical versions!!

2023-02-14 04:16:59 +0000 UTCHad a nsfwbook/zine arrive through international customs once with a note saying customs had checked and opened it at random. They would have had a suprise for sure!

2023-02-14 04:15:43 +0000 UTCHey Leonard!! No rush, I plan to keep the shop more or less open indefinitely. It's been a lot of work to get it to this point but maintaining it won't be as hard on me as all the getting it started so it won't be gone in a month or anything :)

2023-02-12 04:04:42 +0000 UTCOh you speak absolute truth about the USPS. That's part of my bringing up the "if anything is wrong let me know" because it might mean I need to do better with my packaging to defend against the travails of the being in the care of the USPS😔

2023-02-12 04:03:52 +0000 UTCThe war between Temptation to Buy vs Sheer Distrust for our Postal Service is really intense in my soul right now. Hopefully, I’m not broke by the end of Comiket where I live 😩
