Hello Friends!
My good friends from Artel "W" miniatures advised me to try Boosty.to
It's Patreon-like platform with subscriptions, but there are one-shot personalized goals/donations, which may be used for paying for the orders.
The entire procedure of ordering and paying with Boosty looks like this:
1) You write here via PM or email me on hydracast@gmail.com which models you want me to cast in resin.
2) I cast these kits for you. Usually the wait is about a week. And once they're ready, I create a personalized goal on my Boosty page with your name and your order identifier.
3) You log in to your account on Boosty.to and pay for this goal.
4) I email you to confirm the payment once I receive it. And you give me your shipping details.
5) I pack and send your parcel and provide you with tracking number for it.
However. there are some "features" of this method you should know and bear in mind:
- Boosty is not a marketplace! It`s not designed for payments, so refunds would be a problem (as long as Russia is cut off from international payment systems). So, please, think twice before you pay! If you're worried about the possible loss of the parcel, I assure you that I'll be resending you your ordered models until you receive them!
- Russian Post is working like in those days of pandemic. The shipping may be slow, but the parcels are being delivered.
- Amounts of personalized goals are in Russian Rubles. It may be quite confusing. Exchange rate I'm using could be different from that of your bank. So you could be charged more than you expected - the amount could be larger than what we discussed. Unfortunately, I can't create goals in USD, that`s the current reality.
Well, so if you don't want to bother with the cryptocurrencies, you can try Boosty. It's quite simple to register and pay, it's safe and legal.

Fantastic news! Only slight problem is it won't accept my card details for some reason. Can you give any insight?
ReplyDeleteUnfortunately, I don't know what can be a reason. I linked my card without issues. I'll try to figure out why it may happen.
