Hello,
That is so cool!! :)  Can I buy BC Tee Shirts?


With the previous BC store incarnation you could. Grinler, could we have some version of that previous BC store again?

I see that it is no longer in operation.

Looks like a great idea and I hope it works out well.  I'm having "an issue" with a purchase from the store, hopefully all will be worked out.

I hope the store is a big success.  Bleeping Computer is one of the greatest resources on the web, and anything that helps it is good.

 

That said, my experience with my purchase was less than good, so I probably won't make another. 

 

But good luck anyway!

Hello Grinler,

Are you directly involved with all the offered items and will be answering questions?

For example, I am curious about the "Microsoft Office Career Advancement & Certification Bundle."

I do not see any information addressing if the exams are "free" and included?

My attempt to use the live chat feature did not work straight away.

In short, would this type of question be something you are responding to, or is it best to contact the vendor!

Thank you!

Ask all relevant parties beforehand, and if they don't respond, assume something other than the best.

 

Ask even about the most trivial details.  You never know.

@BeckoningChasm #agree 100% #thank you

 

I appreciate your encouraging words; my post was directed to Grinler regarding his role with the new store and product.

I appreciate he is one extremely busy gentleman, I'm sure he will respond!

I do not set the deals. That is handled by the stackcommerce site and they are always available by by email.

If there is a question that I can help with, I will always try, but am not sure i will always be able to get an answer immediately.

I wanted to chime in here.  I had an issue with an order from the store--the store promised what the vendor wasn't prepared to offer.  Well, after some back and forth, I am pleased that the vendor made everything good.  I didn't ask for this--figured it was a lesson learned--so I was very surprised by the vendor. 

 

My posts in this thread have been, um, a bit sour, so I wanted to post that things had unexpectedly been put right.  Kudos to all involved.

 

However, my original caveat--verify it it looks too good to be true--still remains.  Contact any and all and make sure that what you think you are getting is in fact what you are actually getting.

 

Happy shopping!
