Sorry, everybody, but due to Thanksgiving the Thursday specials have been canceled this week. Sad But that's okay, because we have Wednesday specials instead! Very Happy I've spent all day trawling our stock to put together deals that complement our far-too-extensive holiday sale, so if your order seems to be missing a little something, make sure to give the specials a look.

Way back when I was just a young minion learning the ropes, The Dark Lord took me aside and said "Minion, listen carefully. Whatever you do, make sure you don't put the entire store on sale." And so I have tried to live my life by his wise and thoughtful words. Looking over the next month, however, this is clearly a case of "do as I say, not as I do." In retaliation for his deceit, I have put every Sentai pre-order I could find in the specials, but if the war escalates next week I'm not sure how long I can compete in this deals arms race.

Say, have you ever looked at your dog and thought to yourself you'd really rather have a penguin? There's a hat for that!

Happy Thanksgiving to all our American customers, a belated Happy Thanksgiving to the Canadians, and enjoy your early specials everyone else. Smile

Countdown to Holiday Savings!
Count down to the holiday season with three waves of Black Friday deals on selected DVDs, Blu-ray discs, box sets and more from November 12 through 11:59 p.m. CST on Cyber Monday (November 26, 2012)!

Click here for the complete list - complete as of right now, anyway. Razz You've got until Monday at least, but if Shawne gets too busy shooing penguins out of his office I don't know when he'll find time to properly end the sale...

Win a copy of the Pokemon Red/Blue manga box!
Pokemon fans rejoice! We're offering up one copy of VIZ Media's Pokemon Adventures: Red & Blue Manga Box Set, which contains volumes 1-7 of the graphic novel series, as well as a bonus poster.

To enter, just fill out the form here before the end of the day on November 28, 2012.

Why is Right Stuf covered with penguins?
Funny you should ask.

Now updated with part 3! Still does not yet explain what penguins have to do with sales!

Pause for Paws & Effect
Right Stuf, Inc. is proud to announce a new program to allow fans to join us in supporting Paws & Effect, a non-profit, 501(c)(3) organization that raises and trains service dogs for individuals with disabilities and for veterans returning from overseas duty. Please consider joining us as we support this very worthwhile cause.

The Otaku Builder Returns!
The Otaku Builder is back, and it's got brand-new outfits! And we won't even make you download a buggy DLC pack to get them. Razz

New Search
Rich and the web team (mostly the web team, he wants you to know - we've got some talented guys putting a lot of effort into this Smile ) are working on a new search using facets. Give it a try and either leave feedback in this thread or drop us an email (or give us a call, or send in a fax, or whatever it is you kids do these days - twitter? facebook? carrier pigeon?).

Exciting new feature: along with grid and list views, you can also select list-but-with-no-pictures view now! (Or, as it is called by the web team, "text view.") And as a bonus just for me (really, they implemented this one after I asked, so very big thanks to the crew), if you click the text view button again, you get the item numbers! If you're a power user who's got the companies' product codes memorized (a.k.a., me), this is awesome. Very Happy

Updated Great Eastern and Merchandise Policy
In an effort to better service our customers, we're doing our best to work with merchandise vendors to get better information about stock levels and availability of various merchandise items. Certainly, the last thing Shawne wants is you to wait forever for that one item that you're looking for. This may mean items will pop on and off of the store as stock becomes available. Hopefully this will resolve the long wait times, and should be pretty transparent, but if you find yourself with any questions please feel free to ask in this thread (generalities) or contact Customer Care (specific orders).

We've added live chat!
See the link on the homepage. Just another way we're trying to be of assistance to you!

Was someone at Right Stuf totally awesome for you? Please let us know so we can reward our staff! We love happy customer e-mails - we are a service organization - so tell us about our service! What was good, what can be improved; we want to hear it! You can also post on our Facebook page! For those who are interested, Captain America won the costume contest.

Tell us how our packaging fared and how we did on your order here! Submit an image of how your shipment arrived! Best photos will be circulated around the office in admiration and/or shock as appropriate. Creative recycling is encouraged.

Hints and Notes from Shawne:
Paperwork has been completed. Now to plan. You'll hear about this one soon.
I like this one.
There's a group in this spot, if the deal works.
This one is still a long shot. A meeting was held, and progress was made.

Pokemon manga boxset contest? Now that's what I'm talking about! I never win ever though....ever....

So, the T-waves, just to make sure, that's not the Black Friday sale, right? So there will be even more stuff spontaneously jumping into our carts on Friday?

Also, do orders still get held up for pre-orders? Just remembering that I pre-ordered two manga during the Yen sale, one comes out Dec 11, the other Jan 22. Of course, it's still held up on one last book coming in, that I don't mind (odds are it'll come in Friday at this rate). But then I remember that the Madoka pre-orders were to be held all together if ordered together, or was that just a special case?
