Has anyone ordered the back pack under accessories > bags in the VIP store? It costs 2500 fpps and i'm considering getting it b/c it has a nice compartment for the laptop. I tried emailing stars about the size of the pouch, to see if it would fit my 16'' widescreen display laptop, but have yet to receive an answer. I've also tried seaching for threads, but didn't even see an official thread for VIP store items review.

If someone's ordered the backpack, could you tell me if it would fit the size of my laptop.

Most of the Pokerstars branded stuff is poor quality from what I've seen.

The PokerStars VIP Club has a strong focus on quality. If you have a specific item that you have purchased from the VIP Club that you don't like, please let me know.

1) PokerStars.com closed to French players.
2) Many French players spent their substantial stashs of FPPs
3) PokerStars VIP Store warehouse for Europe is out of stock on many items.

Reorders are coming!

I just saw a couple of hoodies/hats that looked quite cheaply made that's all, that's what's put me off ordering anything branded anyway. Have you presonally tried any of the stuff on? Getting told it's "high quality" is different from actually seeing it.

Are you sure that the hoodies and hats that you saw actually came from the VIP Store? The VIP Store merchandise is different than the apparel given out to players at live events.

Yes, I've tried some of this stuff on. Samples of the items come through the Isle of Man and the VIP Store manager has quite high standards for quality. If you have an example of a particular item that was purchased from the VIP Store in the PokerStars client that you feel is not high quality, please don't hesitate to let me know. The VIP Club takes item quality very seriously.

The stuff is good quality, but so overpriced. Why should I buy t-shirt with your logo if I can spend same amount of points in cash bonus worth 3 t-shirts?

Ah, the ones I saw came from a live event I think, just figured it'd be the same stuff.

Any chance anyone knows what model those SunDog sunglasses were that they had during the big sale? They are no longer in the store and were probably my favorite sunglasses ever, so I'd like to buy them somewhere online.

Also, I can vouch that the scarf and beanie (from the sale) are pretty cool and don't have any obnoxious PS branding.

I don't understand why Stars jacks up the prices so much on some of this stuff, especially their own clothing. I would think they'd want to give people incentive to buy this products instead of having them buy bonuses and giving people straight cash.

PS Steve,

may as well give some feedback here.

firstly, is there any chance you'll be getting adjustable caps in the store soon? I have one of the one size fits all (black) and basically it has very little give and does not fit well so i cant wear it. something with a velcro strap would be okay or a nice clasp but really as long as its adjustable and i dont have to pull it on so tight that i get a headache would be good

also is there a reason why you dont haveElements of Poker and DUCY in the bookstore. I asked the vip club a while ago about DUCY and basically was told you wont be getting it. Any chance you can? I'd snap order them when you do.

finally
- the limited edition watch is very cool. i wear it every day.
- the PS sunnies are nice as well. didnt think they were my style but apparently they are.
- the polar fleece (not the hoody, i dont have that) is nice and warm
(sorry no pics or links to which ones im talking about as im at work)

16" widescreen will def fit, that's what I have and it fits.

Nice bag fwiw, lots of pockets and plenty of room.

Have bought the 40" Samsung TV, 2 Samsung Blu-Rays, PS3, and Bose iPod dock and could not complain they have all been great products.
