Stayed for a business trip in Munich and ended up with spending all my free time in the item shop. It's just such an awesome place.
You can feel the love they've put into this. There's Easter eggs and lil homages everywhere - if you care to look for them and stay a while to talk to the staff (they call themselves the NPCs *heart* and they've got an endboss and miniboss).
Their loot is mostly what you'd expect from a nerd/geek merchant but in some cases they differ from common known merchants and offer treasure from lesser known fandoms. Which is great.
Another thing I personally like: this place is busting with pride, but in such a subtle way that it is not "in your face" everywhere. If you look for it you will find it and what you'll find is so cute and wholesome that you just feel at home. Like I did.
That's maybe the thing that describes the Item Shop as it's best:
For some it is just "another store" where you can buy stuff you'd find online as well.
For others this place can be a safe haven where you can just be who you are, with no pressure or the expectation from the staff that you "have to" buy something. Just: get in there, sit down, listen to awesome fandom music, have a nice chat with the NPCs (I guarantee: they can speak more than one line) and - have a good time.
From my heart to the Item Shop:
I wish you all the best, good loot, more gold, many adventures and a lot of xp, so you might level up one day (maybe in Hanover? I know who'd be your first customer ^.^)
Yours,
Sisqui
