HistoryTwo friends in college, Michael Acton Smith and Tom Boardman decided that they had a good idea for a new drinking game – the Shot Glass Chess Set. The idea prompted them to create a completely online company where people could purchase this and other obscure but “cool” products. The idea was to create a site where the public could meet with original and interesting products. They began in Cardiff, Wales as hotbox.co.uk, then in 1999 moved to London and relaunched as Firebox.com.[3] Most of the products sold on Firebox are skewed towards people who are into obscure or abstract items that are unique and hard to come by otherwise.[4] The site states: "We're very selective though - so only the most original, most exciting products get picked".[5] External links
