Customer "Oics"

Earlier this month, company VP Adam Bragg flew to Halifax, Nova Scotia to receive the "Atlantic Canada Craft Award for Excellence" in their "Outstanding Exporter" category.  During his acceptance speech, Adam thanked the presenters for recognizing AbbyShot's accomplishments in reaching 27 different countries around the world via it's web site.  He also went on to thank the many government & business associations which helped along the way, the AbbyShot staff for producing the wonderful garments that people love so, as well as thanking the many customers over the years who have supported AbbyShot and shown their support by continuing to buy the various screen-accurate designs offered online.  So, while it was Adam who accepted the award, he did it on behalf of everyone, so congratulations to you on helping to win this award! 

  Kingdom Hearts Sweetheart Deal A Huge Success!

On February 14th AbbyShot held a special one-day event, putting the Kingdom Hoodie on sale for 50% off and the Enigma Trench and Enigma Custom on sale for 25% off each.  With only a few days lead time, this sale was designed to specifically reward those who frequented the AbbyShot site often.  Unsure of just how this sale would be perceived by the public, we were pleased to see that everyone was quite excited by the sale and were certainly willing to take part.  February 14th was a very busy day for us, with many Kingdom Hoodies and Enigmas being sold.  We even managed to sell a couple of our non-sale items!  Coincidence?  We think so! :-) We'd like to thank everyone who took part in making this event such a success and while we don't know just when we'll be having another one-day event. we can say that there will be future ones, so stay tuned!

Update On Tokyo Anime Trade Show

We have our flight and our hotel booked, we even have our booth registered for the Tokyo Anime Trade Show.  The AbbyShot team for the show have been busily working away at planning every detail.  Researching bus and subway routes, prearranging business meetings, and learning as much as we can ahead of time about which anime businesses will be at the show!  We're expecting to have a great time there and we'll be sure to keep everyone informed on how things progress, and what results we gain from the show.

  Kingdom Hoodie in a movie trailer!

Long time and repeat customer Thai Tran recently sent us this great movie trailer that he and a friend made.  We were especially thrilled to see that the main character's costume prominently featured a Kingdom Hoodie!  There was one tiny downside though... the movie that this trailer advertises doesn't exist!  Read all the details and view the trailer itself online by reading our blog entry.

The red hooded coat as worn by Edward Elric in the anime series, "Full Metal Alchemist" is soon to be released by AbbyShot Clothiers!  Last week we made a blog posting linking to an online jigsaw puzzle.  Those who solved it were treated with several advance pictures of our Elric design, along with the "secret location" of the Elric Coming Soon Page.  You won't have to solve any riddles now though, simply go directly to the Elric Coming Soon Page to get all the details! 

Exceptional Customer Service A Must At AbbyShot

Every day we are reminded of how wonderful our customers are, whether it is a phone call out of the blue or an email in our inbox, we often receive praise and gratitude from our customers.  It is a very humbling experience for us to hear you tell us how much you love your AbbyShot garments, how many compliments you receive, and how pleased you were with our customer service.  It really makes us feel glad to be able to offer this service to you all.  Thank you very much for the reminders!  Here is a recent example of what we're talking about:

Well, I got my coat this morning!!  I just wanted to say it is absolutely gorgeous, awesome in fact! Fits fantastically too, despite my height of 6ft 7ins!!  The next time I wanna get a new coat, I know where to look for one.  I found your website easy to navigate, and easy to use.  Thanks again for the speed of service too!  I live in England and I received my Lobby Trench within a month of ordering it from you.  Again, may I congratulate the girls in production, they have done a wonderful job.
