Physical Merch:
- Sticker Sheets(15.5%)
- Enamel Pins (15.1%)
- Individual Kiss-cut/die-cut stickers (11.3%)
- Pencil Pouch/Case (8.8%)

- Colorable Postcards (5.2%)

Other suggested merch included badges, water bottles, a Deltarune-themed acrylic clip (to hold the pages of the coloring book), a banana car freshener, and a stress ball! In the comments section of the form, someone suggested we include charms as an option, though we are unlikely to go with that option. On the digital side, suggested merch included videos of artists coloring their work and crochet/knitting/embroidery patterns. One final suggestion was for a “digital coloring book” which we will happily provide since our fanzine is a coloring book zine and we plan to sell a digital version no matter what!
What is the most you’d be willing to spend on a Digital Zine (Basic Digital PDF and Digital Merch Bundle)
65.8% of our participants would buy our basic PDF zine at $15-$20 USD,14.7% would pay $25 USD, and4.2% of participants would pay over $30 USD for our zine.
In terms of the Digital zine + merch bundle, 29.4% would pay roughly $25 USD, 28.0%would pay around $30 USD, 16.8% would pay around $20 USD, and 11.2% would pay over $35 USD for our zine.
Scarlet Scarves Zines is looking into a method of trying to get the digital zine to those who cannot afford it. Follow our social media for more updates on this as we release them!

We might include the digital zine as part of this bundle, but we will need to calculate our budget completely before promising this. Keep your eyes out for further announcements!
In terms of a full bundle (which would contain all digital merch, the base zine, and all physical merch (currently estimated at 6 merch options)), 35.0% would pay roughly $55 USD, 15.4%would pay around $65 or more USD, and 12.6% would pay $35 USD for our zine.
Which option is most appealing to you?
Unsurprisingly, the full bundle (physical and digital zines and merch) was our most popular option with 50.6% of our participants. Physical zines and merch were also very popular at32.2%. Still, we hope that those who love digital zines will appreciate what we have to offer (all 9.8% of you!)!
