Hi there! In case you didn't know, I created newgrounds. No, it wasn't made by some giant company - just some dumb kid who now has help. I also co-founded the Behemoth; we made Alien Hominid and Castle Crashers. Icon by Pegosho, banner by OmenaKettu.

Firstly, this store would be awesome if you were able to pull it off. As they say, only invest what your willing to lose. Maybe you could merchandise a some NG stuff to raise funds for the NG store that has lots of exclusive awesomeness.
Secondly, I am officially putting in my application for the store. I am a 21 year old male currently living in Central PA and am willing to relocate to Glenside. Not to mention I will work for whatever you pay me as long as I have food and shelter.
Lastly, w00t yes an NG store!!! Good luck.
YES. Hi Tom give me a job.
I think its a great idea tom really...
but i dont thinK NG is ready for that yet...i think it would be moving to fast. Economically i think it would be a disaster, and it wouldnt make that much money. NG is EXTREMELY recognized - but not well enough unfortunately to warrent a store front. Not yet anyways.
But do i see an NG store front in the future. Definately. Remember, your priority is your website and the prizes you give!
Sounds like an excellent idea, and if I lived anywhere near it I would be a regular visitor. And I think that you could also make a bit more money from selling merchandise over the net aswell, which could easily bring you the numbers you need. I think it's a pretty sound investment myself.
good idea, but it seems like you're in the middle of nowhere. You have to start somewhere, though.
Hi Tom!
I'm one of the few women on Newgrounds...
Leave a message in my userpage plz.
I think it's a great idea.
Only if you ship things for free, ;D.
do it, thats really cheap for a store, and 16 items a day is not too hard to accomplish, although, your store dosent have too many things that "appealing" so i figure sell games or DVD's and whatnot.
I would definitely go to a Newgrounds store if one were ever made.
I would DEFINITELY buy something there!
Make it an Internet Cafe/Merchandise Store Combination, Internet Cafes are actually pretty successful for multiplayer gaming
PRETTY SWELL IDEA HUH YEAH DO IT
well tommy boy, i would like to leave some insight. dont do it. newgrounds is popular and such but i think it would be a financial black hole. its a S*it load of money and i dont think u will make much. i mean, how many people in glenside actually know of u guys and would there be enough people there to buy all that stuff to keep u guys alive? and at 50 000 k i think its a gigantic risk with the odds against ya.
If I lived any where remotely near it I would visit it.
Don't forget advertising, Not to be mean Tom, but Newgrounds isn't as far known as we'd like it to be. Maybe some sort of internet cafe/store/strip club?
dreams... good times
Obviously I'm not gonna read this whole thing, so I'll get to the point.
I want an idea for a Halloween animation... got anything?
kthanks.
It sounds like a good idea, but you may want to hold off a while to save up some money.

Hmm, I think it'd be great in principle but I never got the impression that Glenside was busy with anything at all, and I honestly can't see the place turning enough over to be anything other than a large loss-maker. If you could get anywhere near that price nearer to center city I think it's a lot better.
Obviously if money isn't an object this is the sexiest thing ever
