Tuff Stuff Raises the Bar

August 21st, 2008

Tuff Stuff launched a “new” website today. It’s pretty much exactly what you’d expect from Tuff Stuff - waaaaay behind the times with lots of sloppiness, confusing navigation, and a progressively worse design. For example, click on the “Shop” link to visit Tuff Stuff’s shop and you’ll be greeted by a web developers best friend: Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, aka the text that is used to fill in empty space when doing a web design to get a feel for how the site will look when it’s filled with real text.

Note to Tuff Stuff - this is supposed to be gone before you launch the site. Way to raise the bar guys.

    Wow…that makes it 0 for 2 in the card magazines launching new web sites category, just in the last month.

    Somehow I’m guessing this one won’t cause quite as much of a commotion, though…

    Priceless :)

    Well, they are still having problems - today = “Service Unavailable”. Can’t even download an archived PDF price guide. Beckett, Tuff Stuff… seems SportsLizard’s chances are still getting better everyday, a month later!

  4. Adam McFarland Says:

    Thanks Jim. I’m working hard every day to create vastly improved collecting experience with the new site. I’m shooting for 10/1 at the latest. Per your comments, I couldn’t be more excited at the opportunity :)
