Topic: Anyone interested in a PunBB mouse pad?

http://punbb.org/stuff/mouse_pad.png

A friend of mine works at the Swedish mouse pad manufacturer QPAD. He has offered me a good deal on custom made mouse pads with PunBB logos. QPAD sells mouse pads in a variety of different sizes and configurations. They are most known for their QPAD Gamer XXXL mouse which is absolutely huge (405 x 285 mm). They do however offer the same pad in smaller sizes. I have a QPAD Standard (215 x 180 mm) and it's great. The mouse pads are either 1.5mm or 4mm thick. I will most likely be selling the 4mm version. The pad is dark gray with the PunBB logo in two lighter shades of gray.

Would any of you be interested in buying such a mouse pad? In that case, what size would you prefer? I can't really say anything about price yet because the price varies greatly depending on how many I order. An educated guess for the standard model would be maybe $20-$25 including shipping (worldwide via regular mail). The XXXL is a bit more expensive and will cost me more to ship since it can't just be put in a large envelope (QPAD themselves charge $49 including shipping within Sweden for the XXXL).

Here are some reviews of the Gamer XXXL:

What do you say?

I could use a new mouse pad and one from QPAD would be nice, with the punBB logo on as an added bonus how can I say no :-)
The standard size sound nice...

Re: Anyone interested in a PunBB mouse pad?

I wasn't even planning on selling the large version, but most of you seem to prefer it, so I guess I'm gonna have to :D

No problem. I can ship it to Syria if you like. I would recommend the standard size though, because that one fits in a regular envelope.

Re: Anyone interested in a PunBB mouse pad?

Yes, but that is a much larger venture. The mouse pad thing was just a little something for fun. I hardly expect to make any money from it.

Re: Anyone interested in a PunBB mouse pad?

Hmmm....USD$25 is approximately NTD$800 or so here...not a bad deal. So count me in, it's time for me to drop my A4 scrap paper. big_smile

Oh, I use a optical mouse, hopefully it doesn't matter?

Nope, the pads work fine with optical mice.
