where to buy linux stuff?

Stratus_ss · 02-19-11, 10:05 AM

Specifically I am looking for tux figurines. I have one sitting on my desk that came from a promo at IBM but I am looking to pick up some more stuff like that. I have dug up 1 on amazon... but surprisingly nothing on like linux.com

ebay also has a little bit but not much. If anyone knows of anywhere could you please pass that along?

Thanks

Closest thing I've ever bought is a Linux case sticker from Ebay

Go with EBay. That is what i did.

What is linux?

Cafepress should have stuff.

Check with the various distros homepages. Some of them may have links to "shwag".

IIRC though, excluding big blue, most of the stuff I have seen is DIY or just Penguins.

Check DE though, I know they have a ton of Android figurines (waiting on one order to arrive before I place a second)..

Dealextreme.com

Hongkong china reseller direct. Most of what they sell is probably overstocks and/or knockoffs of name brand stuff. Some is decent and some is quite possibly the largest pile of garbage ever.

The great thing about DX is that they have free international shipping

So even if I was to buy a 99cent key ring (or something), it would still be shipped to New Zealand for free.. I've bought a number of things from them (laser pointers mainly), and they're pretty hit/miss with quality, but bang on with service I've found

Heh I love DX, I've bought TONS of junk from them, surprisingly good CS.

I heard some say DX was an example of "free trade", whatever that is.

they don't have very much, but it could be what you're looking for.
