Christmas is coming...

[Last Hussar]

Before you all boo me, serious point- trying to throw money Dave and Leon's way.

I'm sure a number of us would like some 10mm goodness from relatives.  Is there a nice and simple system  you can offer for those who can't tell a Roman officer from an over-rated tank?

The problem with internet shops is they want you to register (this was the subject of a rant on Cracked recently- can you imagine if you had to register before you could use a high street shop), plus they would need to navigate the site.   Is there an easy way to do a 'gift list'?  Especially as Postage is variable-ish

Additionally, how long do you need before Christmas to receive orders - when is the last date they must be WITH you?  Do cheques incur time or financial penalties?

REALLY good idea   

If any of FSN's relatives are reading: he really likes Romans

I know that Pendraken vouchers are already available...

Something that other sites do to good effect is the "Wish List" - so we, as the gamers, get to add items online to the wishlist section (as opposed to the shopping cart) - which is saved using our login...this then is viewable (and we can move items from the wish list to the shopping cart) and, more importantly, it's share-able (email a direct link etc).

If pressie-buyers didn't want to register to buy our pressie, there could be a "contact us" option - which would show the phone number / email address...

Possible?

I`ll second the wish list option, its a rather good add-on, if feasable.

The Wish List bit would be down to Matt, and what he could build into the website, so not sure on that.  We do want to be able to offer vouchers through the site at some point, so I'll be chatting with Matt about those next time I speak with him.

The easiest way is always for folk to email us direct, and we can sort everything out for them that way.  We can either bill them for a straight order, the gamer can place the order and we bill the relative, or we can work off an emailed wishlist instead?  There's always a solution, especially at Xmas!

Are we getting a 2014 Pendraken calendar?

I was thinking of something like this ...

I'm quite happy to do the photography ... for free.

Give me a break and let the sleeping dog lie warm and snug a little longer

Is it tanky

'fraid not. It's for a work colleague whose interests are ... niche.

Now I am intrigued       

[Hertsblue]

I bought all my Christmas presents in the January sales (I'm lying, of course)
