Dear Backers,

Exciting news! Today we received the nibs from our supplier and we will start shipping your pens tomorrow. We can probably ship 30 to 50 pens each day because all nibs will be tested and adjusted. We estimate that we will need two weeks to send all packages. 

We would also like to let you know that we recently released an XS aluminum pen in vibrant red to commemorate the 5th anniversary of our brand. This is a limited edition of 99 pens and we only have about 40 left. If you order a pen within the next 24 hours we will send it together with your titanium pen(s).  Here is a link to the ordering page: https://www.ensso.com/collections/frontpage/products/xs-minimalist-pocket-fountain-pen-red-anniversary-edition-99-pens

Thank you very much for your support and we hope that you will soon enjoy your XS titanium pens. Please remember that overseas orders can take a few weeks to arrive. The postal service in all countries has been severely delayed due to the pandemic. As soon as your package ships you will receive an automated email from Backerkit with your tracking number.

Thank you!

Dear Backers,

We hope you are doing well. We're excited to let you know that we have completed manufacturing for the pens and packaging. We only need to receive the nibs at the end of the month. As soon as we receive the nibs we will be able to ship the pens in a two-week timeframe. All pens will be tested and adjusted for the best writing experience.

Thank you!

Dear Backers,

We hope you are all doing well. 

We are contacting you to share with you our progress. We have ordered the nibs with our German supplier, nibs will be shipped to us on June 26. We expect to receive them about one week later and then we need two more weeks for assembly and quality control. With this in mind, we expect to commence shipping on July 13. We are currently manufacturing all other components and will have them ready for the nibs arrival.

In the meantime, you can test-drive our other products. We would like to offer you a 40% discount + free worldwide shipping. Your purchases help us to stay afloat during these difficult times for small businesses.  Please use code "HOPE" when ordering on our website: https://www.ensso.com/collections/frontpage

Thank you!

Survey Sent!

Dear Backers,

We hope all of you are healthy and safe.

We wanted to let you know that we just sent out the survey. Please look for an incoming email from Backerkit. Within the survey, you will be able to select your desired nib material and nib size. You will also be able to purchase additional pens and nibs without any extra shipping costs.

It is crucial that you complete your survey by April 20 as we need to order the nibs from our German supplier. As you know, almost all businesses are closed so there might be a backlog of orders. 

We will soon start manufacturing of the pens and will keep you updated about the process.

On the other hand, if you would like to further support us during these difficult times for small businesses, we are offering an exclusive 40% discount on all our in-stock pens for the next 24 hours. Please use code "HOPE" during checkout to receive the discount + free worldwide shipping. 

-> Visit ensso.com and use code HOPE to get 40% off on all in-stock pens.

Thank you and stay SAFE!

Timeline

Dear Backers,

We hope you are all healthy and safe!

First, we want to express our gratitude for supporting this project during very difficult times. Second, we would like to outline our timeline for the project. Kickstarter takes about two weeks to finalize the backer count, charge credit cards, and contact backers with an expired credit card. At the moment, we have 18 backers who need to update their credit card information. After two weeks, if the issues have not been solved, their pledge will be dropped. If you have not received an email from Kickstarter, it means that everything is in order. 

Once we have received the final backer count, we will send a survey via Backerkit where you will be able to specify your desired nib size and order additional pens and nibs. Once the survey is completed by the majority of the backers we will place an order with our German nib supplier. This is the most crucial part because their answer will set the delivery date of your pens. They usually take 2 months to fulfill an order but we are not certain with the current pandemic situation. We will get a clear answer as soon as we place the order.  While awaiting their response, we will commence the production of the pens and packaging and have everything ready for the delivery of the nibs. As soon as we receive the nibs we will test and adjust all of them. Finally, we assemble and ship the pens. 

We will keep you updated on our progress. The next update will be sent along with surveys in about two weeks.

Thank you so much and stay safe!
