We’re still Offering 25% off Everything at the ‘Grok Store

Order anything at the ‘Grok Store by April 17th, and you can take 25% of the purchase price (excludes Shipping). It’s a spring fling kind of thing, and while we don’t have a ton of stuff there, we’ve started making some of it available in different colors.

Grok Store Spring Sale

That’s, in part, a learning curve issue, though the addition of color only seems to add to the number of items we sell in black or white.

Go figure.

Anyway, since I have to come up with the ideas and the designs and do all the backend stuff (see why they are all so simple), if you’ve got something you’d like to see on a shirt or monogrammed on a hat or on a mug, or whatever else they offer – and it’s not someone else’s work, let me know. I can create anything as long as it is original or well within the public domain.

At present, the Z28.310 hat is the biggest seller (also available in camo and a handful of colors for men and women – we know what those are). It is a monogrammed cap, and we did have one commenter say they ordered it, and it never shipped. I ordered one myself and it all seems to be going along just fine, so – not sure what happened there.

How It Works

While we do the design and pick the colors and products, everything else is handled by a third party. If something goes sideways, we won’t know until you tell us. So, please, if you do have an issue, let me know (steve@granitegrok.com), and provide the product, description, problem, or just the order number, please – if you can.

While we don’t make a lot on these sales, and it’s mostly a novelty/marketing thing, I will make time to try and solve your issue.

If you are interested in how often we have those sorts of issues, only twice that I have heard, and one was about the country of origin. SO, about that. Everything is printed or monogrammed in the US on US soil by US residents at a US company, but we have no control over where they buy the mugs, hats, shirts, or glassware (etc.). The mugs are still made in China, and I get it if that’s a non-starter. Just remember that the odds that you are not supporting “China” by simply using networks and technology to access the internet is close to zero. Your smartphone, desktop, laptop, cellular infrastructure, electric grid, and government use Chinese hardware, software, or influences. And I’m down with the struggle, but please do not get on a high horse about it unless you know for certain your life is devoid of something made in China.

I have looked for an all-domestic products alternative and come up empty.

You can support us with a donation. That’s the best way (and many of you have and do so, thank you!). But if you want something tangible, we have a storefront, and until April 17th, you can save 25% when you use the Code ‘FRIENDS&FANS25.’
