Those are probably the best places to look.

I have a closet full of thinkgeek stuff myself.

Dunno about gamers but if you want geek chic (reaaally geek) you can't beat xkcd: http://store.xkcd.com/

Science, it works bitches!

If you don't mind spending a little extra, try checking the web sites for the software companies that make the games (i.e. EA Games, Activision, etc.)

They may have a merchandise section on their website where you can buy t-shirts and other doo-dads with gaming logo on it.

Those slippers are great. I could almost get used to wearing slippers for those ones.

....and how could I have forgot about jinx! Wasn't there a discount code from diggnation too?

i don't even wear slippers, but if i had those i'd wear them all the time. Just because spanalot was THAT good.
I think Jinx has become one of my faves. i've never shooped online before...this could probably get ugly. Visa is gonna love me this month :/

Watch out, it can get addictive

And if you use Paypal, you can see the money go right out of your bank account!

Just in passing
These guys out of Quebec carry them.

Price is about the same after GST but you won't have to wait for Customs to process the package through the border.

oh thanx!! i heard that if you get things for the states you have to pay up the ass in taxes. like almost the amount of the product. there's this awesome robot necklace i want but they don't sell it in canada.

Thinkgeek isn't that bad, they use DHL. The extra fees/taxes aren't gouging you. $10-20 (Cash/visa on delivery) on a $80-100 order.

Stay away from sites that ship with UPS to Canada. They are the worst.

Depends on the value of the item. The tax is the easy part, you just have to pay GST. The other part is brokerage fees for bringing it in. If its a low dollar item, it won't be worth paying brokerage because it could cost as much as the item, like you said. If the item is worth hundreds or thousands, the brokerage won't seem as significant.

Best thing to do is find someone who goes to the states often and have them buy and bring it back to you as part of their allowable purchases. I do that for some friends sometimes. I've even had stuff shipped to one of my US customers or the hotel I usually stay at, if I can time it right, and bring it back with me.

what consoles are you on?

 

[ASYLUM]

so i might as well buy things in large amounts. This is makes me very happy



of the newer ones i have an xbox (not a 360 though ) and the wii. but i still have my n64 so i can play some old school perfect dark

 

[2SOON JR]

aah cool...thought i'd meet u on live/PSN for some online action

 

[ASYLUM]

ugh. i should get a 360. although i think i'd just play rockband all the time. maybe a little COD4 too
i havent played online much with the wii, guitar hero a few time and Smash brawl... but whenever i play smash it lags really bad

 

[2SOON JR]

yea 360 is good for online games...other than that ps3 rocks
