I Want One Of Those
I Want One Of Those is a good starting point for buying unusual gifts online. Here's how the founders say they started:
I Want One of Those started off as a conversation in a pub between a bunch of mates and a cat. The cat was too young to enter the pub, but he wasn't drinking anything of an alcoholic nature. After shooting the breeze for a while, the cat announced it was a great idea, proving that the three friends had, indeed, been drinking more than was humanly good for the correct functioning of their judgment.
Nevertheless, in a blaze of optimism, they decided to give it a go and in 1999 they started work on the original site from a small bedroom. They started trading in January 2000 and haven't looked back. They have looked sideways at each other quite often, and forward occasionally, but never in the reverse direction. Had they ever left work and driven home, this could have caused some damage.
However, I Want One of Those Ltd is now one of the UK's leading multi-channel retailers selling 'stuff you don't need... but you really, really want'. Having moved successfully into mail order & business sales, the company has grown rapidly. Launched in January 2000 with just £15,000, the company has grown quickly with turnover last year over £7 million.

London's luxury Shirt Maker - Thomas Pink
In the eighteenth century Thomas Pink made the best hunting coats money could buy. The expression "In the Pink" originates from the pride that English gentlemen took from wearing one of Pink's coats.
The brand was revived in the 1980s by 3 pioneering brothers with a simple yet unique formula: to sell the essentially classic product of luxury Jermyn Street shirts to a new generation of consumers, providing innovative designs with excellent service in a modern, relaxed environment.
The first Thomas Pink store opened in Chelsea, London selling the brand's distinctive classic cut shirts in strong and stylish colours and updated weaves. The second store was in Cullum Street, and subsequently further stores opened in the West End and the City to reach potential customers at work and play.
To fulfill their promise of excellence Thomas Pink provided a personal service to every customer and all purchases were distinctively wrapped. The store design was welcoming and for the first time in history a Jermyn Street shirt maker opened its doors to Saturday shoppers.
This customer-focused approach has helped to establish Pink as the luxury shirt brand of choice in the UK market.
Customers include Gwyneth Paltrow, Hugh Grant, Cate Blanchett and Bill Clinton.
If you can't get to a Thomas Pink shop in person you can now use the online store.
