  • New website with more to come
  • New products
  • Updates to site, now coming 140 characters @ time via Twitter

A new website is like a new car. You don’t see any flaws and you want everyone you know to see it. Please poke around and tell us what you think. New stuff includes: shopping cart, Illustrations of our products to clarify their function, more information about everything, etc. Better product photos are coming soon along with videos.

NEW PRODUCTS

Joining the Sultan Gaming Table, we have several new pieces of furniture on the website.

The Emissary Gaming Table: A hybrid gaming/dining table. A luxurious gaming & dining table option for you home. No need for a separate game room.

The Alexandria Codex: Finally a place to store your comic books, collectible cards, and minis that can live in the places you do. No more attic/basement/containment room dwelling for your geek treasures.

Curio Cases: These wall hanging lit cases take your hand painted armies, vintage action figures, and others out of boxes and displayed attractively in your home. Wall hung means no footprint to impinge on your limited floor space.

More products are on their way including the Spartan Gaming Table, Measure Sticks and more.

Want the inside track on what is coming? Follow us on Twitter. We don’t want to overload your inbox with spam so we don’t usually email about in process products. Expect to see inside the workshop & labs via tweets.

Outline for the TLDR boys
  • Road Show dates for summer added
  • Sultan price increases. Make a deposit to lock in price.
  • New Products are premiering all summer long
  • More website changes coming up


Our convention schedule for the summer is finalizing. Here is the current list of confirmed dates:
Emerald City Comic Con - Seattle, Washington - April 4-5
KublaCon - Burlingame, California - May 22-25
Origins - Columbus, Ohio - June 24-28
Gencon - Indianapolis, Indiana -  August 13-16
PAX - Seattle, Washington - September 4-6
        

We look forward to seeing you there!

Yes, the rumors are true, the price of the sultan is increasing. After doing everything to keep the price of a Sultan down for our first year we are forced to raise the price. I can assure you that we want to keep the Sultan as attainable as possible, but we must make tough decisions in order to assure that we are still making Sultans for many years to come. 

 Here is the good news. If you are  reading this you have a last chance to get the Sultan at our cost price. If you put down a deposit on your table before April 15 you will lock in the table price until you are ready to take delivery. I know some of you are engaged in remodels and some of you are still house shopping. If that means you won't be ready for delivery for 6 months or even more, we will still lock in the table price. If you have any questions, don’t hesitate to contact sales ( niceguy@geekchichq.com )

Our convention season will see a flurry of new releases from the Labs here at Geek Chic. (Many of them not requiring significant loans to acquire.) Look for the first batch of releases after ECCC. More dice towers, game accessories, geek ephemera, and of course Furniture to serve your Geek Chic lifestyle.

In a commitment to find the web geek within, we are going to try some more consistent communication through the summer. Expect at minimum more updates about what we are doing in the workshop and labs.

From one geek to >1 others, thanks.
