Political - War on Terror: The Board Game

2007-11-01T23:06:00.000-04:00

We saw this game while surfing, but could NOT find any US sources for it. So we grabbed a couple and marked them down. Here is the description:

WAR ON TERROR, THE BOARDGAME: It's got suicide bombers, political kidnaps and intercontinental war. It's got filthy propaganda, rampant paranoia and secret treaties and the Axis of Evil is a spinner in the middle of the board

You can fight terrorism, you can fund terrorism, you can even be the terrorists. The only thing that matters is global domination - err, liberation.

MSRP on this is $59, the cheapest we could find it was $55 US plus international shipping. We are offering this at $44.99.

Political items - George Bush Coin

2007-11-01T22:47:00.000-04:00

Ok, as promised, posts featuring our new items:

In our political section, the Hillary Clinton Nutcracker has been the most popular item in this category, we've added some unique items.

The George W. Bush Coin is one of those. It can be found here for $9.35. This will be a great collectible item.

Some details:

Each coin measures 1-3/4" in diameter.
Each coin comes in its own soft clear plastic envelope
Every coin is lightly lacquered to prevent tarnishing.
Coin colors are soft enamel paint - the main coin color is a medium navy blue.
The base metal is brass, polished silver is real .925 silver
Each coin has light granulating on front around Bush's face to make his shiny silver 3-D face really stand out.
Each coin shows the Bush face in 3-D polished silver - the other coin details are in raised enamel-painted metal.
Each coin weighs almost 37 grams (28 grams = one ounce). These coins are therefore substantial in size and weight. We guarantee the quality of these coins will impress you.
Raised text on the front side of each coin is: George W. Bush, Worst President Ever 2001-2009, In Oil We Lust, and 1984. Raised text on the back side is: Bushwhacked States of America, One Neocoin, and G. Puerilebush Ubum.
These coins are obviously not real currency.

We absolutely love them. we got a few to try, but more are available. Use coupon code 'clinton' for 10% off your entire www.myperplex.com order!

New Item!

2007-09-29T15:08:00.000-04:00

Exciting stuff as we ramp up for the holidays. While the hillary clinton nutcracker continues to fly off the shelves, we've been adding some new items, expect more political and other unique items soon.

First up:

What we clearly see as the best coat hanger ever invented. The Dart Coat Hangers are three stainless steel darts (about 6.5" in length) that screw in to the wall and act as designer decorations and, conveniently, coat hangers! These are priced at $32 for three, which is the lowest online. See here ($34), and here ($34)

Next:

We have a Flask hidden in a bible (the good book). It is a stainless steel flask brilliantly hidden inside a bible. Great idea for those religious types :) available for $23. Lowest price online, see here ($24), and here ($24)

Look for more items soon, and the opening of our clearance section, getting those nifty items for less than normal as we clear them out.

hammertime!

2007-09-26T09:06:00.000-04:00

More store news later, including new items, but for now, we had to post this:

New item - Edible Any Farm Candy!

2007-09-11T20:37:00.000-04:00

Ok so one new item today, Ants - the other red meat! These guys are hard candy, with real ants in them! they look like a little ant farm. Great for halloween or a gross gift. They come in Cherry and Green Apple flavors.

More items to come later this week! let us know what you want to see on our site. email us at myperplex@gmail.com

email change

2007-09-04T21:53:00.000-04:00

For our customers.... we have always used our gmail account for emails, perplexcityusa at gmail dot com has been our email, and paypal address as well. We recently added myperplex at gmail dot com and changed it with our payment processors. So if you see either of those addresses, rest assured your order will go through.

FYI the reason we did this was to get everything in our company name, as opposed to the founders name alone.

Perplex City Trade in is active again!

2007-08-30T20:23:00.000-04:00

Want to get rid of that stack of your extra Perplex City cards? Sure you do, we previously ran this program and it was so good, we ended up with a ton of cards, too many, we had to stop. Now it is time to do it again! The amount have changed since we reduced card prices, but we have a lot more items now to choose from, including four more exciting items we'll be announcing soon hopefully (we choose carefully)

One of our great customers, Rob, reported to us last night the reasons why we are not web developers with a fancy web page. Apparently our project to put the perplex city products in one page failed, resulting in no way to get to the season 2 page (both linked to season 1) We fixed it (we think) and for doing our job, we'll be sending rob a myperplex.com $5 gift certificate, thanks! if you notice anything wrong or out of place with the website, use the contact us link to report it. We can't always guarantee a reward, but you never know!

First post!

2007-08-25T10:50:00.000-04:00

Hi Everyone!

I'm Moe, and I help run MyPerplex.com. I suggested we should add a blog and let our customers know whats going own with myperplex, and what our plans are.We would also like to use it as a place to solicit feedback and of course share all the cool links that get forwarded to us.

First off, the site. Myperplex.com started as a store that sold only Perplex City items. It worked, and we have lots of happy customers that are still buying cards. We can barely keep them in stock! However, with the second season of Perplex City in limbo and no release date for wave 2, we thought we should expand the site a little and add some new products to the lineup. Right now that means the specials link and some unique random items we are trialing.

Our long term goal is to make myperplex.com a place to find unique items that are hard to find, at a low cost. Simple as that. The hard part is figuring out which items to try out, and how to organize the site. We'll be playing around in the near future, and welcome any comments. We're looking into some new promotions, like an affiliate program, our current $1 Season 1 and $1.50 Season 2 packs are going great and we are almost sold out!

Look for some new announcements here soon, and some changes. Cheers!
