Cash Shop'd = Instafail in Shoy's opinion.
Semi-awesome items.
Failed marketing idea.
I'd accept this is a sponsorship and LOVE the items if they were free. D:
Though of all celebrities to start with, SNOOP DOGG AND HULK? wat.

I saw that, and thought for sure that there'd be crack videos of celebrities playing snare drums D: *was just learning how to play a snare drum today >_>* OR ZOMG SNARE DRUMS FOR OUR AVVIES WOULD BE <3333333333
Then when I saw what it was, my dreams (accidentally typed 'drums' there at first xDD) shattered into little pieces ~( crying )~

So...how many CS updates have we gotten since the last Shop Update?
I really want to know this!
Gaia has been more interested in money then service for a long time now.
I second Nymphie. But with the HUlk. I would totally pay gold for a Hulk skin-ish.

they're getting money from sponsors to provide items to sell to get more money?
i fail to see how this is a a bad business move.
but then, i don't have much of a head for business.

Yeah. That's my thoughts as well.
It's not so much "I can't believe they're charging for items" as "I can't believe they're charging me for things that they're already making money off of."
It's like buying a T-Shirt and then having to pay a fee for each time you wear it. In this sense, we're not paying after having bought the item, but it's an example of ridiculous buisness schemes.
Microsoft does that with software. Buy the software and then pay for licenses. That gets them s**t from people as well, but hey! They're microsoft.
Oh well.
Again, I like the items. I'd get them, but I'm not paying for them.

 i bought a couple, but only because they were awesome items and didn't scream that they were a sponsor item.. i have the broken cement and the black hoodie and that's all. The thing i'm hoping will come from celebrity snare however, are items based off of GAIAN celebrities. Like gambino cigars and gino brows, timmy hair and ron bruise heads, cindy microphones and vanessa scissors and moira wigs. Maybe even chuck norris items? There are tons of possibilities, they don't have to have ONLY IRL celebrities, and i hope they don't because i'm waiting for the twinkie brows.
