Excellent,

Hey, Maciamo-sama, is there going to be JREF apparel available at the store?

Maciamo · Mar 18, 2004, 10:20

Yes. We are thinking of making a JREF T-shirt. I will open a poll in a separate thread to se how many people would be interested.

Please note that the shop (as well as the forum and the photo gallery) have not been redesigned yet. We plan to do so shortly.

What about adding mouse pads with pictures of Japan on them to your shop?

dreamer · Apr 11, 2004, 20:12

uh...I don't understand how the shop works -_-

Maciamo · Apr 11, 2004, 22:34

What don't you understand, Dreamer ?

You can use the "search" to find what you want, or just click on a category and browse.

Once you have found something, click on "Buy from Amazon", then you can order the product.

If you already have a product, you can review it as well.

dreamer · Apr 12, 2004, 00:00

Maciamo · Sep 14, 2004, 10:36

Thanks for the recommendations.

I have added over 50 books and 20 DVD's recently, and created new categories (history & politics, society & economy, culture & traditions...).

Don't hesitate to instruct yourself.

point4m · Sep 14, 2004, 10:58

Would you ever get into keepsakes, like Kyoto prayer beads or luck charms?

Maciamo · Sep 14, 2004, 11:11

I don't mind, but they don't have any on Amazon, I think. Do you know othe ronline shops where they do ?

thomas · Sep 14, 2004, 15:48

I beleive I saw one shop that is located in the UK. I haven't seen anything in the US that would offer that online yet. I will keep looking though and let you know my findings.

I hope you realize that this thread is almost 4 years old.

**Uncle Frank** · Jan 17, 2008, 02:16

What's so special about 25 posts? And why does the shop link lead to JFriends?

Mikawa Ossan · Feb 4, 2008, 18:55

Once you have 25 posts, you are allowed to post links to outside web pages.

It's part of the anti-troll/spam campaign that we wage every day around here! Sorry to those who are inconvenienced by this policy, but it really does cut soen on our problems!
