Persnickety Box is Temporarily Pausing Printing
When I sold Persnickety Prints in 2023, I intentionally structured the businesses to work together so that Persnickety Box customers could continue receiving the same professional silver halide prints they had always loved.
Unfortunately, the manufacturing and brand relationship has become strained after the current owners of Persnickety Prints have threatened to discontinue fulfillment services for Persnickety Box. Rather than continue accepting payments without confidence that we can deliver the quality you expect, we've chosen to pause printing while we build a permanent solution.
An active lawsuit alleges that the people who bought Persnickety Prints stopped making the payments they promised, moved the business into a new company, and are continuing to operate it while trying to avoid the obligations they agreed to when they purchased it. Because these court filings are public, we've linked them here.

Persnickety Prints has served as the fulfillment provider for Persnickety Box and has threatened to stop fulfilling our products.
This issue is connected to ongoing public litigation concerning the sale of Persnickety Prints. Because the matter is active, there are limits on what we can discuss publicly. We have linked the public court filings for customers who would like additional context.
-
We are working toward resuming fulfillment as quickly as responsibly possible, but we are not announcing a firm date yet.
We are evaluating several options, including a new fulfillment relationship and the possibility of creating an independent production facility. We will post meaningful updates on this page and communicate directly with customers by email.
-
No. Recurring billing will be paused during the interruption. No new subscription payments will be collected until Persnickety Box is prepared to resume service.

They will be available when fulfillment resumes unless you request and receive a refund for an eligible box.

Yes. Because billing is being paused, you will not receive another recurring charge during the interruption.
You may also formally cancel your subscription through the app or by contacting customer support at admin@persnicketybox.com
We recommend leaving your account active. Since billing has already been paused, there is no additional cost to wait. By keeping your account active, you'll preserve your paid box credits, your stored photos, and your progress toward earning future loyalty reward boxes.

All unused open boxes will remain in your account. You may continue filling those boxes, or leave them open until later.
