So, how do you want us to order them? Just email... and what if we don't have a PayPal account?

If you can't do PayPal, I'll take checks, well-concealed cash, money orders, or just about anything else of value short of Mardi-Gras beads.

Can you accept direct credit card transactions? I would be glad to order Large one, but Georgia is not on the list of countries residents of which may set up an account it PayPal. Thank you

Nice mug too! Tough. The first thing I did as I took it into the kitchen was drop it on the floor. it bounced around and made alot of noise, but came out of it with nary a scratch! I had a hot cocoa in it soon after. |

One of my mugs broke and now my matched set is unmatched. I don't suppose that Thenamir, since I was such a good customer in the past, would donate one of the extra mugs to my refurbish the set?
He can PM me if he needs an address. What kind of action figures did the Barrow Downs have? Can we gets an obloquy? How about a Squatter of Amon Rudh and a Rimbaud? Would there be a davem and a Lalwende? Surely there must be a set of the rpg mods, Child and Pio? And of course Estelyn Telcontar. I bet her action figure comes with a skwerl.

My Barrow Downs t-shirt, along with my Minas Tirith t-shirt, are safely folded and put away in my drawer as its way to warm here to be wearing them.
I do contemplate making them into sleeveless shirts, which would be worn regularly... Oh, my mug was left behind at the house after my divorce. If you have a couple left, I may be interested in getting them as they were perfect for the morning coffee. |

Any coffee mugs left, sir?
I kind of want one, but then again, I'd only use it for tea, not coffee. You don't have any Barrow Downs teapots do you?

Perhaps the good storeman would consider augmenting the items in the Barrow Downs store, what with this new Hobbit movie a possibility?

The first one is lovely!
Now I miss taking pottery... So many lovely teapots could have been made, now that I can keep the clay from falling... Hmm, that gives me a bit of an idea. Possibly having BD swaps, of mugs and pots? Though, I don't know how much time that'll take. Just an idea I guess. ~ Ka

Ah. Mugs and such. Many mugs still very much available. Half-price sale! Buy one, get one free! No teapots, alas.

I would dearly love some Barrow-Downs merchandise! But alas, I don't have monies to spend on it and my parents probably wouldn't buy it. I like Hookbill's idea for a teapot. I would put it in our china cabinet and use it regularly!

I still have my shirt but "lost" the mug in a divorce. Shipping will likely be more than the mugs.... |

So I'm guessing that there is no more t-shirts? I guess I missed it... darn, I could've pestered my mom to give one to me for Christmas ar a very belated birthday present.... Too bad. I would like a mug though, but I need to get money to pay for it with.

Are they half-pint mugs? Or Does It come in Pints? I drink my tea by the pint.

They are, unfortunately, half-pint mugs (standard US coffee-mug size). However, since they are buy-one-get-one-free, you can have your pint of tea in two gleaming Barrow-Downs mugs!

Sorry, I didn't answer the other questions -- no t-shirts, no hats left. Mugs are 2-for-$4.99-plus-shipping -- and unlike some unscrupulous types on E-bay, I don't inflate the shipping charges. I charge actual, verifiable shipping costs.
Glad to help!

Barrow Downs mugs look like this; you can compare them to the books behind them to judge their size:

I don't suppose I could make my own BD t-shirt... Because if Thenamir is all out, then I couldn't just get one from him... And I wants one!

You could do something with transfers surely? My god daughter mad t shirts and badges for one of her Discworld MUD-meets.
