Reflections on Save the Cosmonaut

Hello everyone!

This is one of those informative posts that can be of interest of many of you as The Cosmonaut's investors. More than 400 people decided to support, help and believe in us when the project had its most delicate moment. And they made the project their own, as many other people before them.


From that moment on, "Save The Cosmonaut" became a "milestone", and thanks to you, we could finally do what we had been waiting for for so long: shooting the movie.

Regarding the sending of the contracts, you were so MANY who supported us, that we couldn't actually offer you a good service. Just after the campaign started, we went to shoot to Latvia, and just one of our production boys stayed in Spain, so he couldn't cope with everything, not all the contracts were signed, there was some delay manufacturing the patches, and the problems that the wonderful Spanish postal service sometimes offers us... All this and some other issues made it impossible to answer you equally and at the same time.

But some days ago we finished the hard job, so we wanted to write this post, both to apologize in public to those who had suffered any delay, and to inform you about the current situation:

All the contracts had left our headquarters in Madrid. Unfortunately, and after more than 3500 people supporting us, we know some orders just got halfway, as if they were lost cosmonauts. We have sent them all as registered post. Sometimes, if the recipient is not home, the postal service leaves us a notice, and sometimes they are not read/received or they get lost. They come back here, delaying it much more.

Many of you have already answered an e-mail we sent yesterday explaining the situation. But we would like to put the facts on record here to avoid any possible confusion. We want you to still believe in The Cosmonaut, as if it were that day you decided to actively participate in it.

Please, write to tienda@elcosmonauta.com if you have any problem, and we haven't talked in the past days, to solve it as soon as possible.

It really cheers us up to know that many of you are answering us telling us that everything went perfect, so we hope we make you all have that feeling soon.

Thank you very much again. :-)
