Shipping Now! - Renai Sample

Jacob · 2014-11-08T06:17:12-01:00

Time to give everyone an update on Renai Sample! Previously I wanted to have the books shipped by the first week of November, but unfortunately that wasn't possible. Right now we are expecting to receive Renai Sample from our printers on November 24th, currently they are in a bunch of shipping containers on a nice boat somewhere in the middle of the Pacific Ocean. Once we receive them we will be shipping them out immediately starting with the oldest orders first; it will probably take about a week to get them all sent out. I take responsibility for being overly optimistic on our initial shipping date, I really wish we could ship the books out earlier. To make it up to everyone, I am going to gift every user that has pre-ordered Renai Sample up until now a free subscription to FAKKU Gold. FAKKU Gold has not been officially released or even announced. It is still in an early Alpha, but it is the foundation for a service that will eventually be implemented on FAKKU. I am actively working on this so you can provide me with feedback and suggestions and even hatemail, right now you'll be able to: turn off all advertisements, receive 10% discount on all store purchases (including FAKKU Books), set your own custom rank, use the read history feature, use the read later feature, keep track of multiple avatar uploads, configure a bunch of random options, and post in the FAKKU Gold forum. I stress this is still in Alpha, so don't hate me too much if something doesn't work 100% correctly. I'll be giving everyone FAKKU Gold later today/tomorrow and will be sending out an email with more details. Going forward I am going to make sure there is a 2 - 3 month window between when we send a book to be printed and when we expect to start shipping the book so that this doesn't happen again. Unfortunately this was something that we could only learn by actually printing the book. Additionally, we are going to hold off on releasing any new titles until Renai Sample ships. I do not think it is fair to start promoting our next few books when you still haven't received the first one. To give you a teaser of what's to come, our current plan is to launch four different books in December, including two unannounced titles. P.S. December is our 8 year anniversary. All that said, there is some good news! We received the advanced copies of Renai Sample (32 books), and I want to share with you some pictures. These are primarily for press release and promotional stuff, but these are exactly the same as the books you will be getting. I don't think I mentioned this previously but all books will be shrink wrapped, this way you'll know if someone opened your mail and looked at your hentai. By the way, if you moved in the last few months make sure you have updated your shipping address appropriately. Opening the box... Aha! Renai Sample Here's what it looks like, a little blurry Here's a picture of our Renai Sample next to the Japanese version of TiTiKei And the binding Here are some pictures from inside the book And here's Renai Sample next to a normal sized English manga release

The shipment actually didn't arrive till last weekend and it was only yesterday that they started with unboxing them. You can check page 16 if you want.

Don't worry everyone! The first orders that went out today were all oft he ones with extenuating circumstances/addresses changes. We wanted to get those out of the way first.

Tomorrow we start shipping from the oldest orders to the newest ones, orders from August will go out first, then September, and onward.

Cool.

Jacob, how long will it take to get here? I ordered it like about 1-2 weeks after release and from the 22nd-29th, I won't be home. Will it be able to arrive within 4 days? I'm from Cali, in a city about 30min away from LA.

Yay! Can't wait, though mine'll probably take a while, due to my nasty habit of procrastitating till the last minute to pre-order.

the pallet box photo made me firstly think... great nice to see it. secondly that's a lot of hentai. thirdly i like the shirt on the right =)

Yeah, that is an awesome shirt, what is it?

It's a Meatbun shirt done by Paul Robertson!

It looks like their catalog is a little smaller than the last time I visited their site though...

I changed my shipping address and emailed store@fakku.net yet I just received a shipping confirmation email saying it'd be shipped to my old address. I hope this isn't the case and that one of the fakku team will see this. I'll email the instructions again.

Just had the same thing. I'm hoping it's just the system showing the address that was on file when ordered, while the package itself has the updated address.

That might actually be the case, the order history won't update to the new address if you emailed the store. But the tracking info should show it going to the updated destination.

So will we get a mail or other notification when it is sent?

I think a mail is sent.

You mean you already got the mail or you just assume that?

Didn't receive a mail, I ordered pretty late, so I'll be sent my copy pretty late.

Me neither unfortuanetly, even though I pre-ordered in August :-(

you say that just because you already have yours shipped out, and, as Jacob said, only got it before us because of "special circumstances." If it wasnt for that you might be complaining too
