Eh, I haven't heard much from the items store. Are there any plans to expand it e.g. add more merchandise?

I've heard suggestions for more products to be added.. Toys, clothes, more stickers, yeah that kind of stuff.

The funny thins is that we already have an AG tshirt design - which was done by Strop...a fair while ago.


Was that sometime back in 2008? Or was it last year?

You know, I've always wondered the same thing.
It says store, but all that's there are a few stickers and the ball from John's Ball series. Some shirts would be cool, maybe you could have the full versions of some of those games where you can buy the full version on the site.
Also, the section is a little lackluster in design. A little more &quotizzazz" would make it look more appealing.

4.Flash Drive (with game design)


*marketing meeting impression*

Innovation. Boom, thats what we need need Anderson! So come on, what else do we need? we got blue elephant plushies, yes very nice, Ag t-shirts, I would bu yon, but it would have be simple. White with the logo, or black with the logo. Coffe cups, yes, posters, ppossibly of like game charecters.

BBut how many people will purchase these items? It has to be worth the staff designing and paying for them to be made.

I love the foam finger idea, so did Larry. We also like the USB drive idea too. It all comes down to where we can find a business online to partner with, and what sorts of things Dan wants to sell on the site.

Well, they'll probably be gauging for reactions first then.

Mugs are good.

Great news, I'll finally be able to express my AG'ness.

I'd definitely buy a mug. I'll even go out of my way to get a paypal account. Coffee mug, tea mug, beer mug, anything like that. I might even pose for you <3

Well, a mug or so with the AG theme, or the "elephant" would be great. I would by it but would the shipping work of seas? Cost extra maybe? Europe, Australia etc.

Goodie! Here's my wish list:

*Dan bobble-head and all of the admins would be great.
*the Mod-Squad dart board, or something similar and of course it can be made for non-metal darts.
*Armor Games for the office-
mugs that users can customize but as least with the new AG logo.
desk blotter-calendar showing the top ten most popular games.
mouse pad with the new AG logo.

KFK's asking about shipping over seas but I don't think it would be a problem for current PayPal accounts?

bobble-head LOL

Larry and I threw around the idea of submitting "customer photos" if you buy something from the store, and if we put it on the site, you get extra AP or something.

If you do that you need to get moar kewl stuff! Then we can make goofy pics of us with the products to put on the site, perhaps similar to thinkgeek.com

thinkgeek.com

One of my favorite sites. I have so much of their stuff on my desk right now it's ridiculous... tall blue "geek." water cup, the clear caffeine mug, "dark matter" silly putty and the new "black hole" magnetic silly putty, the giant d20 stainless steel dice, the pack of tiny stainless steel dice ...

But yeah, that's kinda where I got the idea, and Dan likes the idea of posting customer shots for AP and/or achievements. You'd have to Email us the photo with your username and maybe an order number so we can verify your info and credit your AG account with the points, etc.

I'm with you there. I probably spend more money on thinkgeek than I do on my ISP each month, much to my wife's chagrin. Anyway, back OT. I agree that it would be great fun and also good advertising. I would just like to see a much expanded store. I realize that many of the users on AG aren't old enough to purchase things, but there are actually quite a few of us old folks around too! I think it would be well worth it if you could find a cost-effective partner to produce a wide array of items.
