Back in January, when the “new” and “improved” Weregeek store launched, I had high hopes for it.
The open-source store software I chose was purported to be fast, easy to use, and compatible with Canada Post…. But as the months went on, the bugginess of the system became apparent. Some orders got charged too much for shipping and needed the extra cost refunded. Other orders went awry entirely, not showing up in the index until weeks (or in one case, a month!) later.
It was a nightmare.
And so, to rectify the problem, I’ve dug through many different store providers, searching for one that worked with Canada Post. I found one that is reliable, stable, and best of all, has around the clock support, so if anything DOES go wrong, it will be fixed immediately. Hurray!!
The new store is streamlined and lovely, and to top it all off, I’ve added in several new items, including fridge magnet sets that include the ever-popular Refrigerator Stat Block, as well as several new art prints.
And, to celebrate the new-new Weregeek store’s grand opening, I’m giving everyone 10% off their orders for the next two weeks!! Just enter the coupon code “weregeek” when placing your order, and voila! Cheaper Weregeek swag! Woo!!!

Woot, I’mma get some swag! But I noticed you don’t have the badges up?

Hey, just checked out the store and I want to say thanks to whoever wrote the general description for the d20 necklace. It’s amazing how people only refer to the term luck as a positive influence. Leaving it inferred that “bad” luck is just unlucky. So, again, thanks.
Patrick Says:
Thanks for the Firefly reference.
Never played Starcraft II, but it’s nice to see some other ‘Browncoats’ out there.

The code isn’t working; neither with or without caps, with or without the space.
Matt Says:
I’ve tried Geek Out, GEEK OUT, and GEEKOUT. Nothing works.
Alina Says:
Hey all!! Ok, I’ve got the coupon code problem sorted out. Yay for tech support!!
The coupon code has also changed to “weregeek”, (no caps, no spaces), which should make it easier to use.

I just tried to order something and got: Coupon code “Geek Out” is not valid.

Oh sure, now the comments refresh and make me look silly ;P

As way-cool as the fridge magnets are, it must be said:
I find your lack of pins disturbing.
XAQ Says:
Pins are being added to the store as we speak… we just had to make images for them. They should be up by tonight!
TxGator Says:
Now I want to play Star Craft II even more now! Oh Great Computer God, why have you forsaken me with an old computer that barely runs Star Craft I!!
