Better we get everything right first time than rush ahead for TT and make a hash of it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Slim Posted June 11, 2009 Share Posted June 11, 2009 Island Books is closing for business today, so get down there and support your local bookshop. Went in just now, very little left. Looking forward to the new shop opening, get on with it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MilitantDogOwner Posted July 9, 2009 Share Posted July 9, 2009 Just an update... Unfortunatly the bricks and mortar shop will not be happening due to financial problems. We will be however operating an E-Shop and will be taking in orders. At the moment we will only be stocking TCG (Trading Card Games) and Comic/Graphic Novels but will be expanding to cover Roleplay Games and misc geekery in the near future. Check us out at www.infinityasylum.com (we're still setting up the site but are open for business). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stavros Posted July 9, 2009 Share Posted July 9, 2009 And the advantage of ordering from you as opposed to anywhere else online is? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jimcalagon Posted July 9, 2009 Share Posted July 9, 2009 Ugh! I hate to say it but that is the ugliest site I've seen for a while. I had flashbacks to 1998. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pandb Posted July 11, 2009 Share Posted July 11, 2009 I think that attacking this website because of its apperance is a bit unfair as he said its still under construction and the idea behind it is very good. It would be great to have an isle of man dedicated gaming website people could give some constructive advice instead of slating. Lets give it a chance and if it sucks in 2 months then so be it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lets give it a chance and if it sucks in 2 months then so be it Agreed. Although to my elderly eyes the site is disconcerting but tolerable. Disappointed that there'll be no physical location but I have put the site up as a favourite and will drop in to see how they build it up but I'm not one for browsing a site like I would a shop. I bought a fair old amount of games and game stuff from Island Books because there was someone there to talk to and inform me about the product. The only guaranteed purchase they got off me was KODT once a month but as I enjoyed dropping in whenever I passed they must have taken about 50 times that per month in incidental sales. I do shop locally where possible and odd though it may be, I have no issues with ordering through a Manx site rather than from a site for a London shop (you know who they are).

Oddly enough as I am not an expert web designer, the site may look a little ragged to start with but with time and attention I hope to improve and grow the site.
