I thought you had to buy them

I thought you had to buy them in addition to the donation- that's why I just asked for the raw file and printed it at my school.

The perk just grants you the

The perk just grants you the access to the 3D model, but to have it printed you need to purchase one.

Quote:
When you support The Endless Forest on IndieGogo for 20 Euros or more, you will receive a link after the campaign is done, to a private page where you can print the deer model through a service called Shapeways in a color of your choice (see swatches on picture) and, if you like, including your pictogram and name. The cost of printing is 18 Euros and shipping cost is very reasonable (since the object is small and light). The figurine is 11 centimeters tall.

I thought perks were supposed

I thought perks were supposed to be thank-you gifts for backing.

From all of the funding pages I have seen, this is the first time I see a perk being required to be paid by the backer.

Flyleaf, I've never seen the page to be honest so I don't know how the pricing works, sorry. :/
Perhaps if anyone reading this has purchased one, do you have any info for us on pricing?

HeartClock, I'm pretty sure they stated from the beginning (as seen in the post I linked) that you have to pay for them. However the perks aren't described overly well on the fundraising page, so I can completely understand how anyone could be confused by it.

You'll have to pay the whole deer price ...i think .
I wish someone who has already ordered one could help out here .

I know it was stated that you

I know it was stated that you have to pay for the figurine and the shipping.

But I don't see the point because it's a perk. Like I said, I've seen a lot of funding pages for other video games and this is the first time I see a perk that the backer has to pay for in order to have it instead of being offered by the creators/devs like it usually is since perks are like "thank-you" gifts for backing the project.

I just don't see the logic in here. You back the project with the amount but then you have to pay what that you are supposed to receive as a "thank you". Aren't perks gifts? What's the point of having to pay for them even though you already spent money to support the project?

Can just someone please explain to me? I'm confused.

Sorry, I misread your

Sorry, I misread your original comment. I know it's not the traditional way and is pretty confusing. But seeing as they aren't earning any money from the game itself, I suppose they are quite limited with what they can offer. *shrugs* it is how it is. Nothing else to explain really. The perk is a bit pointless I suppose haha.

Yes, it is. If They cannot

Yes, it is.

If They cannot afford the figurines (with shipping), then they should have not offered it as a perk.

If we think about it, the perk is not the figurine, but the private link, which doesn't make any sense to me because it's not an actual offer then.
They should have made the link public so that anybody can buy their own 3D printed figurine without having to back the game. What tells you that people would not back it just because they can get their figurine without having to do so?

Don't get me wrong, I would have paid for the figurine if I had supported the project with the required amount, because why not? But it's just illogical in my opinion.

You don't want to or just can't back the game with that much of money? Buy the figurine directly yourself!
You backed the game with the amount of money necessary for the figurine? Then get it for free!

That's how it should have been.
I get that they want to make the figurine for the backers only to thank them or maybe to make sure that people will back the game (believe it or not, some people financially support a game just to get the perks), but they seriously did not have to do it. Yes, it's nice of them, but they did not need to because the TEF community would have supported them and the project nonetheless. I bet a lot of players would have spent 1000€ anyway (maybe not all at once, of course), regardless of what they'll get in return.

It's nice as a thank-you gift...except that it's not an actual thank-you gift.

Sorry, I just can't help but to constantly think with logic. I mean, there must be one, right? *sigh*

Flyleaf, my university has a 3D printer. I would be glad to print you the deer models and mail them to you if you'd like. I wouldn't be able to do it until August, but it could be done.
