Hi there! By "supply", we mean that our finance mod has to provide the budget, the budget being the financial planning and budgeting for this zine's production, not the monetary supply of funds needed to complete physical fulfillment.

Cancelling the project completely will not take place under any circumstances once our contributors have joined us, as it would be disrespectful and disappointing to the hard work and effort they've put into committing and creating works exclusively for this fanzine.

If we fail to break even but achieve a decent amount of sales, we will focus on fulfilling either a zine-only physical project or a merch-only physical project, whichever we are able to break even for. If there is a severe lack of interest and sales (<5 total sales, for example), we will convert this fanzine into a digital-only project. Of course, we will contact buyers accordingly to process the necessary partial refunds due to the product changes, or full refunds if they do not wish to purchase our fanzine anymore because of the changes above.

Any funds spent by the finance mod before the circumstances above will likely be used to print samples of merch items, or a sample copy of the zine. We are very unlikely to spend money to print merch samples or a sample copy of the zine until our sales break even, as printing samples are part of the cost to produce the fanzine and project, and any money used for such samples will come from the zine's finances.

If there is a situation where personal funds have been spent by the finance mod with agreement from the mod team and the project fails to break even after preorders, organisation mod agcalcium will repay the finance mod out of pocket accordingly. Thank you for your question 🧡
