NMS Merch, Cosplay, 3D Printing

Continuing on from the old thread.

The new Merch Store is now open and taking purchase requests :slight_smile:

Including a limited edition 10th anniversary tshirt :slight_smile:

I need to buy one of everything… I can totally excuse a 200 GBP spending spree, right?

I at least need a t shirt, a hoody, a tote bag, a desk mat, another t shirt, also an extra t shirt, a poster or two… dammit. I was trying to keep it small and simple but I keep saying things.

Some weird stuff going on with the pricing.

It does say estimated on the page but when you get to billing theres a substantial jump, so be warned.

E.G. Hoody says it is 50 GBP Sterling on the site, which comes to about 58 Euro when converted. However on checkout it is being priced at 73.95 euro which is a substantial difference… I may have to reduce my cart :see_no_evil_monkey:

Every item seems to increase by a good margin beyond what you’d expect from the item price listed and their currency conversion.

edit:

Also the site is now displaying everything in Euro for me even though I didn’t change or touch anything, might be they’re still getting stuff up and running on their end. Hopefully the price inconcistency is just a hiccup.

moar edit:

Some of the items don’t ship until october while others don’t ship until november. Orders containing these items will not ship until they are ready.

So, I decided to just stick the 10th anniversary t shirt for order since it doesn’t have any warnings about shipping at a later date, and I’ll do a second order next week for the pre-order stuff and make that one a little pricier. I need that mat AND that hoody :stuck_out_tongue:

I got the email for this earlier today. The price jump is likely VAT and shipping? I wish prices would at least show VAT up front, but I still come across quite a few shops that don’t.

Went with the 10-T, the mat, and both posters. Decided to rather wait on a single purchase than pay shipping multiple times.

I should give this sewing and embroidery machine a spin when I get a chance. Might be a while as I have several projects planned, but I could certainly look into designing a patch or two.

That was a nice timely arrival. 8 days. Feels odd not having to wait months for a NMS Merch pre order to ship :slight_smile:

It looks nice but I wonder if you know the “weight” of it, because the previous I bought to them (special 6 years ?) was a poor quality, something like 150g/m² or less. I hope this one is a better quality.

Not sure of the weight but its 100% cotton :ok_hand:

Did not see this marketing crossover coming. I dont think ive ever drank chai :sweat_smile:

I hate that its real and I need to buy it…

It asked me for my twitch username and my favourite twitch streamer on checkout :thinking: i dont use twitch outside of NMS drops so I just put in Diabetikyle. No idea what it does.

What ??? they call that chaï and use coffee ??? no tea, no spices… what a joke. I’m waiting for a jojoba NMS shampoo :sleepy_face:

Yeah. I am a huge chai latte fan (and angry at Starbucks) and I saw that and thought no way. Do they understand that chai is tea? Maybe it is a dirty chai with espresso added to it… Weird
Either way, this may give chai a bad rep

Starting to think this may just be a tub of iced chai latte flavoured instant coffee powder :face_with_peeking_eye:

8 servings isnt very much either. Travel sized for the plane :sweat_smile:

Chai is literally just another word for tea, I used to say to annoy certain customers (yes, for a time in this life I was a hideous corporate barista, AMA).

Anyway, yeah, that looks like a powdered mess, analogous to what you get in those Maxwell House International Coffee tins.

Maybe if we shake it hard enough … ?!

In fact you will not have so much coffee

main ingredient is sugar 34g for a 47.7g scoop, next is dry milk.

Chaï ? nope, sugar at 100$/kg :joy:

Yup. Thats instant “coffee”.

Ive an espresso machine and a bean grinder. I do not tango with instant.

But now I have novelty branded marketing cross over food produce I plan to shelve and never consume.

I think that officially makes me a nerdy fanboy collector now.

Just keep it in the stated cool, dry place and 20 years from now, someone will pay big bucks for it, then open it and make it and drink it. If you’re lucky, you will be there to see the reaction

Maybe one of those youtubers that eats old army MRE’s will want to try it on No Man Skys 30th anniversary and pay good money.

Or whatever the online equivalent will be… hard to project the landscape with AI slop standing in the way of a clear vision of where anything is going.

Whahaha, you all take the words out of my mouth, chai coffee sounds like fish bicycle. :upside_down_face: No need to order that from another continent. I have ginger, spices, and black tea, I sometimes prepare chai at home, I give it to them, it’s a good flavour. (The chais from Indian restaurants are still better than mine though, what’s the trick, do they just make it twice as strong? :innocent:)
