blackdaggr 0 Posted July 14, 2021 Report Share Posted July 14, 2021 Has anyone heard about badges being mailed out yet? We rolled over our Otakon 2020 badges, but we haven't received them yet. Link to post Share on other sites
Krabstarr 55 Posted July 14, 2021 Report Share Posted July 14, 2021 Otakon on Instagram (otakonpics account) said on Friday the 9th that badge mailing is scheduled to begin July 12th with all badge deliveries completed by July 31. Link to post Share on other sites
Revan 45 Posted July 21, 2021 Report Share Posted July 21, 2021 Just got my badges in the mail today. Need to provide my own lanyard for it, though. (Not that I don't have a few dozen from previous cons.) Link to post Share on other sites

Though re-using your own lanyards is good for the environment and helps save us money! Link to post Share on other sites
The Tsunami 20 Posted July 22, 2021 Report Share Posted July 22, 2021 (edited) Might be an issue for me as I completely forgot that my unfriendly carried over from 2020 registration and hence was assumed at my old residence. I updated my information on Showclix two days ago, but if they are going out while showing up as not yet mailed... ETA: Looks like I changed it just in time as it arrived here with the updated address. Edited July 22, 2021 by The Tsunami Link to post Share on other sites

That is a lame excuse given the FIFTEEN dollar charge for the shipping, but with the envelopes they used I could see lanyards tearing those up. Link to post Share on other sites
.taro. 0 Posted July 23, 2021 Report Share Posted July 23, 2021 Yeah, it does make it easier on the mail processing machines to have the envelope as flat as possible also means (hopefully) fewer delivery issues. Also means we can fit more badges into a single mailing for those who order multiple. Plus, it's better for the environment if you re-use a lanyard you already have! And yes, cost is also a factor since we didn't want to have to charge more than what we already are. Link to post Share on other sites
TnAdct1 35 Posted July 24, 2021 Report Share Posted July 24, 2021 Got mine yesterday. As I already have an unused Funimation lanyard, I simply connected the badge to that for now. Link to post Share on other sites
klnicholls 0 Posted July 24, 2021 Report Share Posted July 24, 2021 I'm getting a little worried, since I haven't received my badge in the mail yet. I know I have to pick my daughter's badge up on Thursday, but I would feel a lot better if my badge arrived already. There is less than two weeks before the con! Link to post Share on other sites
