Macabre Blog – Talking about Wickedly Decadent items

That’s right, the state of Nevada has now moved into Phase 2 of the reopening plan and that includes indoor malls.
Macabre Mercantile will be open for business as of this weekend Friday, May 29, 2020.

Come see us in Booth B-19 at the
Fantastic Indoor Swap Meet (don’t let the name scare you, it’s a neat indoor mall with all new merchandise – like ours)

The mall is located at 1717 S. Decatur Blvd. Las Vegas, NV 89102

We look forward to seeing you again (with all safety precautions in place, of course)

We just restored a BUNCH of purses and wallets as well as our handmade leather journal/sketch/spellbooks to our web store.
They were pulled down when the Governor of NV locked down the state and we could not access them.
They’re no longer hiding in our store, unreachable by the minions of Macabre Mercantile.

All our Black Craft Cult products are back online as well as many of our cute character cross body mini-bags, coffin wallets, and of course our favorite, the Baphomet plush backpack!

There are a lot of new products that Media Minion still has to put online and we’ll announce them once they’re on the site.

As a reminder, we can deliver in Vegas for FREE.
Shipping via USPS to Vegas and the rest of the country is as normal.

Just to let you know, we were given access to our new store at the Fantastic Indoor Swap Meet in Las Vegas yesterday.
We pulled a bunch of items that had been removed from the website and we will be putting them BACK on the website this weekend.
If you’re in Vegas, you can order online and we’ll deliver to you for free, so it’s almost like regular shopping. Of course, we’re still shipping anywhere in the US.
We hope that the store will be opening within the next month but we don’t know the Governor’s timeline for indoor malls. We look forward to seeing you again, in person (separated by masks and gloves of course) but until then, we will continue to be here virtually doing our best to keep ourselves and you healthy and happy.
Stay wickedly decadent! We’ll see you soon.

Today was the last day that our brick and mortar location was open. We had a few repeat customers stop by and grab a couple of deals to hold them over. It was nice to connect with them and reassure them that we’re still going to try our best to be around for the Las Vegas goth and macabre community.

It’s a sad thing having to admit that you made a mistake in choosing your location but we did. The mall we chose does not draw casual shoppers. Everyone there is visiting for a specific purpose: eating lunch at a fast food place, getting fingerprints done or shopping for groceries. We really needed a mall that caters to the browsing shopper. We didn’t have the budget to do radio/TV/billboards which might have offset the location but as they say, the key to success is location, location, location and we chose a bad one.

We’re so happy to have had the customers that we did, but those who found us were not enough to keep paying the rent. We hope to be able to start serving our local shoppers again in the future at a new brick and mortar location but that probably won’t happen for at least another year unless we strike it rich someplace. In the meantime, our website is still live and we will be attending local and regional shows and conventions to bring our macabre and wickedly decadent items to the public.

We’re wounded but far from dead. Thank you all for your patronage and we look forward to rising from the grave to serve you again in the future. In the meantime make sure to join our mailing list to receive updates on where we will be appearing. Follow us on Facebook or Instagram or Twitter – whichever you prefer.
