FAQ

What happened to your Etsy shop? Curious about our Etsy reviews?

We decided to move all products from Etsy to this Shopify because Etsy had many restrictions and fees. You can also view all of Etsy reviews/customer testimonies here. We have over 700+ sales and 15+ 5 star reviews! We've also boothed at many conventions including MiniComi, AniRevo, Akimatsuri, and have sold brick and mortar at Makers Park Royal in the past.

Where can I get access to a lasercut machine?

Your local library or college is likely to have one! If not, there are makerspaces or sign shops that have lasercutting services. You can also order these designs cut on Ponoko.com (not affiliated).

Commissions are accepted based on our availability and interest in the project. You can email us at mail.playeryu@gmail.com (responses are not guaranteed).
