Thanksgiving is tomorrow and that means Black Friday is just a day away. Brian has cooked up a pretty ridiculous assortment of Black Friday deals and it’s my job to let you know about them. So I’ll start with the stuff we’ve got.
Christmas Pin Set - $29.99 A delightful seasonal pin set for the collector and/or trader.
The Co-op Winning Tees - $19.99 Dabe's first design as a full time PA employee and a great tee printed on a sweet, seasonally appropriate cranberry heather blank.
Double Secret Boxes - $13.99 At last, the much-whispered-about Double Secret Boxes, each holding two "random" pins from our grand pile of trade-backs and spares. Take a chance at adding to your set, or getting some extra pins to trade.
Box Contains: Two Pinny Arcade pins selected at almost-random* from the entirety of the pins that have been traded with Penny Arcade staff at every PAX since the dawn of Pinny Arcade, that includes pins from Penny Arcade and from Pinny Arcade partners. All pins have been inspected for damage and authenticity, then cleaned and fully sterilized before being individually bagged and then boxed two-by-two.
Dungeon Mistress Print - $25.00 Limited-edition, hand-numbered, screen-printed on top-quality, carefully-selected paper stock, featuring Gavin's much-celebrated Dungeon Mistress design, now updated for wall-hanging. And other hyphens!
Strip Search - $29.99 DVD/$39.99 Blu Ray The DVDs are in stock and will ship instantly. The Blu-Rays are available for pre-order and will ship in early December around the domestic shipping deadlines. There is the really great early-order bonus - a piece of exclusive original art that features contribution from all three finalists.
First Party Polos - $39.99 Our 2.0 Polos are now available in 5 new colors (Charcoal Grey, Sage Green, Canary Yellow, Chocolate Brown and Sky Blue), plus we restocked the Slate Blue that sold out so quickly last time around. These are still 2.0 polos, but we DID add an extra inch of length to all of the sizes and let the 2Xs and 3Xs out an extra inch or so in the shoulders based on customer feedback. I'm super excited to offer all of these colors.
Every once in a while we will like someone else's work enough that we'll offer their books or items on our store. This season we have two great ones: Enfu: True Grit featuring the art of Ken Taya, who's art is hung up all over the Seattle area including the PA offices and who worked on games like Halo 3 and some of the Scribblenauts titles. Also the Maze of Games puzzle novel by Mike Selinker.
Of course it would not be Black Friday without some “crazy” promotions and discounts. So here’s what we’ve got.
We're launching the new polos I mentioned above and they are full price, BUT EVERY OTHER First Party item (Jackets, Sweater, Ties, Notebooks, Belts) are going to be 20% off for ALL of the holiday season. Tis the season to get that FP item you've always wanted and in some cases the last chance since we're getting awfully low in inventory on a few of the items like the sweater and jacket.
Black Friday-Cyber Monday - 10% off of the Double Secret Boxes.
And of course, the tier rewards!
Also if you purchase two pin sets in the same order, we will throw in this Pinny Arcade poster for free!
Finally here are the shipping dates so you can make sure to get your stuff by Christmas.
For International First Class and Priority its like this:
December 1 for Africa and South/Central America December 7 for everywhere else First Class December 10 for Priority Mail to Europe/Canada
Domestic:
Standard Post - December 13 First Class/Priority - December 18
UPS: Ground - December 13 2-Day - December 20
If you have any questions you can always mail Brian in the store. He says that if delivery for Christmas is ESSENTIAL, you might want to order Blu-Ray copies of Strip Search separately from the rest of your order. We're happy to take customer service emails to combine totals toward the merch tiers and Brian says he’ll keep the product weight a little below actual to help with shipping cost there.
So there you have it. That’s our Black Friday offering this year. I have to say the Double Secret Boxes and the Strip Search DvD are probably the things I’m most excited about. Both have been a long time coming but we don’t like to do stuff unless we can do it right. Both of these took a long time to get right but I’m really happy to finally have them in the store. Also that’s a pretty insane discount on First Party gear. If you’ve had your eye on something for a while. this weekend is the time to grab it.
Happy Thanksgiving everybody!
