YWO Merchandise!

[Shaun]

Well, it's happened, we've jumped overboard and entered into the land of crazy stuff. You'll notice above that what used to say "aStore" now just says "Store". Why is that? Well, we now have more than one store. If you click the link it will take you to a new page and on that page you will find:
--Our Amazon Store (where you can purchase stuff from Amazon without paying a dime more than usual and earn us money in the process)
--Donate Page (where you can donate money to us to help pay for hosting)
--Our Zazzle Store (where you can buy t-shirts, hats, mugs, and all else with YWO logos or other things on it!)

That's right, our Merchandise Store is up at Zazzle! Check it out, get a shirt, and enjoy!

EDIT by Andy: There are no shirts with phrases at the moment. We plan to add those at a later date, so there wouldn't be any rushing or holding back a store that's all ready to go.

Here are some previews of what our new store has:

I would exclaim some sort of exclamation here, but I already knew about this.

-weasel-

Buy my ambigram!

I'll go yell at my parents, although my grandparents have already promised to order a dozen. Or were those empty promises? Have they ordered anything yet?

EDIT:

Are you going to change the logo header at the top of the site anytime soon?

I could've sworn you changed the title of this thread.

[Andy]

Try refreshing the page. The new header should be there.

If you're using the Gray Style, you won't see a difference.

[Alex]

its extremely awesome and all, but no ambigram with white text on black? blasphemy!

We have dark and light versions of just about everything, guys. Also, if there is something you want that we don't have, PM me. Seriously. We want to accomadate our members as best as we can and if we don't have a shirt of hat or whatever that you really want, we'll make it.

Edit: Within reason of course. We're not going to make something with naked girls on it...

[Carraka]

If you're using the Gray Style, you won't see a difference.Oh, that would explain it. Now I have to decide which style I like better, hackers.

Edit: Within reason of course. We're not going to make something with naked girls on it...But naked men are all right? (Not interested in naked boys, thanks.)

[Nyx]

Oh my! The mousepad looks sweet.

[Shaun]

Naked men are definitely out. If we were to do anything involving nakedness it would be...nevermind, I cna't have naked anything cause Imelda would kill me...and resurrect me from the dead to kill me again.

=p, I didn't go back to check how poorly my statement was phrased, but I was refering to T-Shirts.

A mousepad for this laptop would do me as much good, as.... well... something that does you no good

[Majyk]

Awesome! I agree with Nyx, that mouse pad is cool. Now I need to go bug my parents :P

Yup, there's a t-shirt with a white logo too :P. Look in the sidebar for the product line called YWO Ambigram Line. That has all our ambigram stuff.

[Carraka]

Out of curiosity, about what percentage of a purchase does YWO receive?

[Andy]

Out of curiosity, about what percentage of a purchase does YWO receive?
Not much. While we do have some control over our royalties, most of the cost goes into actually creating the product (and giving Zazzle a small percent) - which we cannot lower.

For example, we only make two dollars for each mousepad. Any less and it almost wouldn't be worth having a store. Any more and the prices would start to get unreasonable.

[Shadow]

I hate my parents. No, I haven't asked them if I can buy anything from the store. No point. They'll just take one look, find out it's from a forum, scream "Paedophiles!" and sue you for just letting me be a member of the site. And I really want the +5 Knowledge shirt. Tis awesome.

[Carraka]

My mother refuses to buy RPG stuff, but we just spent $100, and we'll probably look into some hoodie when the leaves start falling.

So you probably got what? Ten dollars? Five?

[Shaun]

We make as a minimum $1.20 and at a maximum about $5.20. It really depends on the product.

[Carraka]

Per purchase? Or per product?

[Ichigo]

Cool. Everything looks really nice. Hopefully I'll get something, although my parents might do the same thing as Shadows...

[Mercy]

I actually have some money (ZOMG, it's a miracle! x3) so I hope to buy something soon. I really love the 'Spellchecker of Justice' shirt. ^_^

[Shaun]

Per product. We made over $10 off you, Carr. That's about 10%. But your family also bought items with low royalties due to us not wanting them to cost an arm and a leg. Some products start off more expensive. The highest royalties happen to be on the male white shirts, which sucks.
But, to be honest, any royalty is good to me!

[Carraka]

Well, the last time I spent $100 at a time for you guys, you only made $5, so I guess this is an improvement.

[seikoXchan]

The YWO hoodie is on my Christmas list. ^^

[Shadow]

I just realised.

-screams in frustration-

I just bought a load off Amazon that costed £50. I could have used YWO's aStore. Dammit! Grr.

[Carraka]

I just received two shirts with my ambigram.

I am wearing one of them right now. With any luck, as soon as I step out of this house, I'll meet one of you, and we'll talk about how writing is lovely.

[Andy]

Carraka, can you throw the shirt on the table and take a picture of it? I still need to order mine. :doh:
