h2g2 The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy: Earth Edition

sorry if this is an obvious answer but I briefly looked on bbc.co.uk, on h2g2 and did a google search and found nothing.

thanks much,

As far as I know, there aren't any official ones for sale any longer. I have one that I won a few years back in a contest, I don't know if they're still doing that.

Thanks Mikey (We meet again..I think?)

I guess this is a job for Cafepress

Yup, I was the one who added you to the Northwest US Researchers Group.

At the moment, there are no h2g2 t-shirts. They've never been on sale as they've traditionally been prizes at London meets. But the BBC'd make a fortune if they did sell them though!

Presumably existing owners could sell them on e-bay (or whatever similar facilities might exist) or on stalls at conventions. Although I've never worn mine, I'm not sure I want the hassle of arranging to sell it. Meanwhile it's waiting until it's needed as expendable dross during some really dirty job and then it might become a rag.

I donated my last prize thingy to GreyDesk because I didn't really want it and he said he was collecting them. Though I don't actually know whether the staff really did send it to him; I only know they didn't send it to me.

The original ones from tdv were on sale, but when the new ones came in from the Beeb it was too complicated, so they became prizes. They are all gone now though - whether there will ever be anymore is anyone's guess really.

I got the last tdv t shirt.

The h2g2.com ones were on sale? I won both of mine - I'm not complaining though!

Yup, which is where the legacy <./>shop</.> link came from.

Well, you learn something new every day

So can one of the editors possibly bring this up with the bigwigs at the beeb? What better way to advertise your product than to have people wearing bloody advertisements on their chests (and paying for that right)

You'd be better to post a new thread to <./>Feedback</.>. The Producer did organise some merchandise a few years ago, which was used as competition prizes. It's always worth asking if they can get some more.
