They do nice work! Like the Skyrim hat
(must... resist.. Skyrim! I burned waaay too many hours on Oblivion....)
Thanks for the Etsy tip... hadn't visited there before, and will definitely try it.
Ebay is expensive, but still good for marketing. If they were to set up their own site and payment mechanism (via bluehost/paypal or whatever) they could throw a few hats up on Ebay and start making people, blogs, etc aware of their site. Before long, they will need the auction sites less and less. Ebay allows that as long as the auction copy phrased along the lines of "...for more info, please see the manufacturer's site at..." Won't help the supply issue, but maybe they could stand to raise the price a bit?
Great idea, and I wish them luck with it!
