Different design, there.

Y'know what I'd buy? An Ubuntu fedora.

So why can't you buy it? It's $10.32 USD. Just because they have a US store doesn't mean you cannot buy from their international store as far as I know.

Other than some trinkets and apparel items you have to purchase from the international store anyway so why not these things too?

You cannot buy the hat from the international store and the one on the US store is nothing like it.

I want it so bad I can taste it.

Trust me the only reason I am not getting chicks is because I don't have this hat....

Canonical please help me get laid!

Looks to be the UK store that sells that hat, I have no idea why it's so much of problem for companies to ship over seas but yet no problem for others :(

The "UK Store" is actually the international store. Even if you do live in the U.S., you can purchase from that store. Just click the drop down box on the side which says "Pounds" and select "US Dollars" to see the price of the stuff in U.S. Dollars.

Doesn't work for me it says;

" Unfortunately we are unable to ship items to your country however you can purchase software, training and support products on this store. If you are in the US please visit our US store at http://usshop.ubuntu.com"

Do you know anyone in the uk that could buy and ship it to you, of course a certain amount of trust is needed that way but i have know it been done many times.

I have the black baseball cap (from before the US store opened) and I have to laugh at the number of people who either ask "what is ubuntu" or "you use ubuntu?". The latter usually from somebody using Linux or in the IT field.

Either way, it gets quite some attention.

spread the love!

I'll find out if the hat is going to be in the US store - we do try to make popular items available in both stores if possible. It does not, however, come with any guarantee of success in dating situations. ;-)
