Shockboxes are coming actually next week. We really should have had them by now but the last shipment has to go back because there was a problem.
I am actually working with Jason on the shocks. He's not planning on selling them direct anymore because his schedule won't allow it. (And, we're set up for it here but he stuffed that inventory into his apartment). The new run are the same as the last run, but I do have one surprise in store for everyone.
We've had to stop carrying a few items lately due to lack of interest and supplier issues. We still have some of Jeff Kurtz's shells, but it's not worth carrying the encoders, and JROK doesn't answer my emails when I ask about carrying their product. We're out of Sanwa sticks right now but we are preparing an order. We try to keep some MVS carts in stock -- I think we have about 50 different ones right now but I prefer to be up around 70-80 unique titles. We haven't ordered any UNIBIOS because we pay so close to full price, that by the time we put them in stock, you can get them for the same price right from Raz. We did only a small handful of CPS2 repairs during our run, it isn't something people need Southtown for. Our T-Shirt designer and supplier went away, but that could be any of you if you wanted.
Anyone who wants to sell a product there can simply let me know what you'd like to sell. I don't mind commission sales, or I'll buy stock for the store if it's an item that looks like there is interest. It's a store that was originally built by Eric to serve the community with the free downloads, anything else we can do to help, just let us know.
I'll carry anything worth carrying. I welcome suggestions to beef up the store. There are a lot of people who create products and sell them here, but I would suggest dropping me a line to get them in the store -- Southtown's audience goes well beyond the forum, about 60% of our customers do not use this site.
I would really love someone to make 10 consolized Neo-Geo that all match -- I'd buy them wholesale as a lot or you could put them in the store until they sell, but having just one unit is a drag -- anyone want to be the official console maker for the store?
