I believe that was her 2nd Hippo Noto Kickstarter. I ordered mine when it first went up online. Well, like you I received mine over 4 years later. I can’t remember if I received it around the end of last year or the first of this year. I don’t feel it was handled well and I’m convinced it was more to it than we know. I vowed never to do another Kickstarter again with anyone.
Same here. It makes me nervous to attempt to join another kickstarter
I mean the notebook does look nice❤😊
Congrats on finally getting your order. I gave up at the end of 2021 and asked for a refund. But I had also ordered the Herbert pen along with several notebooks.
Omg.. the hippo noto saga.. I was so enraged I ended up paying the extra $25 just to get it and i just got it last year..
I want to love it but i havent even started using it cause i was mad..
Ill crack it open soon cause i need to get over .. its not the notebooks fault 😂
Hope you get better soon..
Omg more money to get it sooner? That’s highway robbery….but glad you got yours anyway. Yes you gotta use the notebook to get some of your moneys worth 😝
Glad you are feeling better!!! ❤ 4.5 years 🤯 at this point I would have been like whatever because to get a damaged product I would be to scared to try to return it 😂😂😂
That’s wild…4 1/2 years! 😂
Yes! So crazy
Sorry to hear you've been unwell. Sending healing thoughts.
Awe. Thank you so much for your thoughtfulness!!😊Always a smile when I read a comment from you. 😉
Girl I filed a chargeback after a year of waiting for it. You got way more patience than me
😬🫣 I supposed I showed a bit of restraint with this one lol
I never received mine. I also ordered a pen case. I emailed them so many times and kept getting excuses. They stopped answering my emails. I doubt I will ever get it. I’m glad you got yours.
Omg. Nooooo. Were you an early pledge? Or late? I was a late pledge. Maybe if you were late, it could still arrive?
@phoeberuiz8219 i emailed them this morning after I saw this video, bc i also never received my order from like 5 years ago now. I was also a late pledge; we never even had order numbers to reference for emails (at least I never did) and they also stopped replying to me after 2021 or so. Anyway, the email I sent this morning, they actually replied with a tracking#!!! I am still in shock. So I have a strong feeling you will get your order too...finally!!!🙃
Sharing other stationery items. Flips of journals. How you use all of your books.
Great idea!!
I'm glad you finally got your order!I had to start emailing them and getting frustrated before I finally received mine.Such a shame for this issue,especially since it was started in honor of their late child.I would love to hear how the Galen Leather pen sleeves patina if you have one!
You have major/amazing patience....wow.
It is a big deal to wait that long, but in honesty I forgot about it recently until I got an email so it worked out
The adhesive pocket is supposed to stick. I bought mine from ebay and mercari. They are in tack surprisingly.
Oh awesome. Well that’s an easy fix for me, but definitely takes some points away from the brand. 🫤
Just checking back in with an update. Today I received the Hippo Noto notebooks I ordered roughly five years ago. Like yours, mine arrived dinged along the edges. The slip cases are badly crunched and a little damage shows up on the notebooks thenselves. They shipped them in bubble wrap envelopes when they should be using boxes. I like my notebooks pristine and these are definitely not, but I'm certainly not going to ask for replacements after five years. I dud email them suggesting they switch to boxes just in case they are still shipping. I will not be doing business with Squishy Ink again.
I am so sorry to hear that yours arrived in such bad shape. I hope you can still enjoy the notebooks!
Thanks for sharing. It would be nice to see some more currently inked videos.
More to come!
The Sterling Ink B6 slim is the same size as the Jibun Techo. However, the B6 slim Cafe Notes is a different size. B6 in general is either JIS or ISO in size. Think wonderland222 B6 vs Stalogy B6. So the "slim" is open to debate lol.
lol I suppose you’re right.
I watched this with great interest because I was a late pledge for those products and never got my goods. I still haven't heard anything yet. It's very aggravating but I've given up. I ordered for two people and spent over $100. I tried to contact her a few times over the years and never heard back. My email address has changed too, so maybe I'll try contacting her. They are nice notebooks; I had gotten a few in-stock ones and liked them. But you're right -- there are more comparable options now than there were back then.
Over $100 just may be my breaking point. I wish you the best luck trying to get your products
@CarrotsOlives I emailed and heard from them. They are doing a "test batch" of shipments in November but are holding them for a while to give people time to provide new shipping addresses. So, I got a tracking number on a package that is still sitting in their shop as part of their "test batch." They told me to expect delays. Ridiculous since they have a confirmed address for me and could just ship the package. We'll see. Maybe I'll get them eventually.
I hope you got yous, I finally got mine last week.
@@LucyWu Good to hear! I got mine, but they weren't properly packaged and they were kind of damaged. I emailed the company to let them know that they might want to use boxes instead of envelopes, but of course they didn't respond.
How's your baby doing I love that notebook by the way❤😊
Hey there! Baby? You mean my little boy? lol. He is 16 months but definitely not baby size anymore 😭 he is doing well.
@@CarrotsOlives yes that’s who I mean🩷💜❤️
Wow, you have incredible patience! I gave up a couple of years ago and asked for a refund. PS I ordered one of their earlier formats a couple of years before that and it fell apart quite dramatically after only a couple of months. The binding basically came away from the pages - really bad quality considering how long it took even for that one to arrive (I think about a year or more!)
Oh my god. Now I'm regretting my choice even tho I bought the new version
@@Sagekittykin Hopefully the new version won't have the same problems as the old one did!
They should be an expert now and learn from their mistakes 😬
Oh boy, but you came back…possibly because they were one of few selling TRP paper in large page quantities? Now we have options 😀
@@CarrotsOlives Exactly!! At the time I think they were the only, or one of the only, companies to offer a B6. How much things have changed in the last few years!!
Dude i was a like after the kickstarter backer (forget what we were called) and just never got my notebook... i emailed them at least 3 times (1 email per year or so), they did reply to one to change my address and then they stopped replying forwver after. I left a message on twitter once too and it was deleted like right away (was not a hate msg that i left, i was looking for an update as a backer after the fact bc we didnt get the same info as regular backers, also requested a refund since those rmails were ignored too). I hate hippo noto honestly. Ill check my mailbox tomorrow but i think im more likely to find a gold bar in there honestly.
Wow. I didn’t realize this video would get so many comments about others experiences because I didn’t realize how many people experienced the same thing. Maybe my head was in the clouds or a rock, but there wasn’t much “talk” about it online either (probably because they were good at keeping it hush hush). Sorry you were ignored and didn’t get your product. I was a late pledger so maybe there’s a little hope if you were a late pledger too.
@CarrotsOlives i emailed them this morning bc of you getting your order just to see, and they sent me back a tracking#!! I literally can't even believe it, I'm so shocked!! And yea they were definitely not allowing comments anywhere about orders especially from late pledges on any of their social media spots to discuss those things, so it was infuriating to not have any recognition as a late pledge of having even ordered anything. Thank you for posting your video!!!
@mtchob so they are just trying to save face. Glad that I got them second hand
@Sagekittykin it's wild they would try it 5 years later haha... are they attempting to sell new notebooks this yr or something? I would NEVER shop with them again or recommend anything from them... if they're still trying to sell stuff, I'd be shocked. Good job getting yours 2nd hand, definitely rhe way to go!!
@@CarrotsOlivesThere was plenty of talk about it on social media a while ago, but after enough time went by people just moved on. Lots of us got burned. I also recall that late pledges had no recourse and couldn't even leave messages on Kickstarter. I ordered three notebooks so my investment was substantial. It would be lovely to hear from them.
Id be interested in the link on your amazon fountain pen!
It is called Asvine v126. amzn.to/4eR81Sa
Curious of the name of the Amazon fountain pen please
It looks like an Asvine V126.
Yes it’s an Asvine 126
Girl, you waited 4 years and they sent you a damaged item….smh
I would have long ago asked for my money back.
That's what I did at the end of 2021. But in my case I had ordered multiple books and the special fountain pen. I understand how in her case, life went on and an order of 1 book might not have been at the top of her mind. Even I had forgotten about my order for a while, because I moved from one country to another and changed jobs.
Yes it is unfortunate, but at the time when I knew it was going to be late, they had a reason and then 2020 and as @newketolady1859 said, “life went on” couldn’t be more of a trurer statement.
@newketolady1859 woah, it would be qso evil if it came at your old address. I'll start fighting
Bs are not as standardized as As
Yeahs that’s what I am learning. Quite interesting and a bit risky when you try out a new “B something” hoping it would fit your other “B something”. lol. You gotta dig further for the actual dimensions (bleehh)
