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

Some japanese copies have it better. (pictures from a friend)

Spoiler:

I guess this issue can be fixed for later printings.

Yeah I think that's just a common but unfortunate printing error. Probably some adjustment can minimize it.

Hey Jacob, what do I do? I received my copy of Renai Sample, and I was so happy, but once I decided to read it, I noticed a page had a pretty big piece ripped off on it.

Spoiler:

WOW, dude. That's just..... oh man. I can't even imagine how that could happen.

I had a hentai manga that had damage like that too, also shrink wrapped. Nice triangular rip through several pages in the middle.

I'm assuming these kinds of rips are from when it gets caught in the machinery. It's why I always at least flip through them if I don't read them right away, it's easy to spot.

Pre ordered mine on the 19th of September, is it normal to have it still say "shipped"? Does living in Canada have anything to do with it? D:

Oops.. Posted this pretty late at night. I meant to say it still says "processing" :')

Ordered my Renai Sample on 10/04/2014. Read earlier this week.. or was it last week .-. that you guys were on the 2nd week of October? I live in California.

Haven't gotten an email or anything stating my copy is shipping. Waited a week/2 weeks just to give some leeway but I figure I should ask just to make sure.

P.S.
Finished reading through Peachy Butt Girls... *Drools* Ill probably buy the physical copy because I enjoyed the digital so much. lol.

Any way to gift the digital copy that comes with the physical copy? My friend would be thrilled. lol

So I just recently got my copy of Renai Sample and I was very impressed by the quality of the book. However, when I started reading it, I noticed that it was missing a few pages since it jumps from part of "Lock You" to the final parts of "Summer's Beast". I'd post a picture but I'm on mobile now. I'm not really sure what to do now.

That sounds like a sheet of paper (Is that the correct term? It is called "Papierbogen" in German.) is missing in your book - it should have 14/12 (counting the outer ones or not). Unfortunately I can't take a photo to show what I mean.

I just got my copy on Friday evening. I have a growing collection of H-manga and Renai Sample is by far superior in quality to anything else in my collection! FAKKU! is publishing work from some of my favourite ero artists so they've gained a new regular customer in me!

Finally got my book after 3 weeks of shipping. I was so happy to see it after waiting so long but only to be disappointed by the mail guy stuffed it into that little mail box. The book got a little damage on the corner like some other users had with theirs. It is still a fine book but the reason I paid extra was to get the book and get it in a perfect condition. Ok, no more rant.

I want another new book in its perfection condition. I am willing to pay extra for my first Hbook. Now is the question time.

Will there be a better packing way than some bubble plastic envelop? If possible I want a cardboard packing and wrap the bubble plastic around the book and tap it to the cardboard inside so won't move around inside while shipping. And put "No Bending" sticker on it.

For all future shipments we will be doing cardboard bookfolds, that should solve the problems with not so gentle delivery. Just email store@fakku.net and we'll send you another book at no charge.
