Does anyone know if there is an OpenBSD merchandise store that is active? The link on the main openbsd.org website goes to a store that seems to be out of date and I am not getting any response from their contact form.

The link on the main openbsd.org website goes to a store that seems to be out of date and I am not getting any response from their contact form. I think they are still active. The 6.0 release was the last one with physical CD sets made, but there *is* a 6.1-themed t-shirt available from the store. I last bought a couple of t-shirts from them in late August. Their business hours seem to be Monday to Friday 10am-2:30pm, UK time. I'd give it until some time Monday UK time until declaring them non-responsive. - Peter -- Peter N. M.

And it seems I can take it as far as the PayPal checkout. What kind of problem did you have with it? Do you mean when registering as a new customer? or when emailing to [hidden email]? We, at computershop.ca are still linking to OpenBSD Europe from the old store, and that connects. I see the link directly from www.openbsd.org goes to the same place. Of course we still have older excess stock at the old store, but to be honest, that only funds my retirement, and doesn't benefit the OpenBSD project directly anymore. However, I promise to spend any proceeds at the new store if you ask me to, so it could help indirectly. I agree, it's slow to get any personal response from the new store, but looks to me the basic purchasing mechanism still works. Would be interested to know if there is a real problem. Austin |
I think the mechanism is fine. Maybe just a lack of items. Since there isn't a new poster or CD's that really takes away from the inventory. I don't think there is a problem with buying what is listed though. I sent an email to the store last week but didn't hear back. I just followed up again.
