Background

Vat19.com is an online store founded in 2000 by Jamie Salavtori. Originally, they sold DVD's, but currently, they're selling "curiously awesome products" ranging from exaggerated candies, licensed products, extremely spicy chocolates or Rocket Fizz sodas coming with interestingly strange flavours.

1st Logo (2007-201?)

Logo: Just the the text "Vat19.com" placed somewhere on the product presented and advertised. In the case for the image shown, the text is placed above the DaysAgo digital day counters (currently discontinued).

Variants: Later on, the text will be replaced by their own logo at the time, which is just the text in orange and gray respectively sent in the Hobo font.

FX/SFX: None.

Music/Sounds: A male announcer saying "Vat19.com. Creators of award-winning DVD's and purveyors of curiously awesome products."

Music/Sounds Variant: On its later years, the spiel is shortened to remove the DVD mention.

Availability: Seen on many of their promos at the time.

Editor's Note: None.

2nd Logo (2008-201?)

Nickname: "Sliding Vat19"

Logo: Against a colored or patterned background (later changed to white), the "VAT19" text slides from left to right. The text ".com" appears later on, all in sync with the jingle. A mouse comes in and "clicks" the logo. At the bottom during this is "Shop CURIOUSLY AWESOME gifts".

Variants: A still version without the text or ".com" can be seen on a couple of advertisements for the products they sell at the time. Most of which are discontinued. More TBA.

FX/SFX: The text sliding, ".com" appearing, and the mouse clicking.

Music/Sounds: A group of men singing the store name. A mouse click was heard afterwards. This will later go on be heard in future logos.

Availability: See 1st logo.

Editor's Note: None.

3rd Logo (201?-201?)

Nicknames: "Sliding Vat19 II"

Logo: TBA

FX/SFX: Same as before.

Music/Sounds: See the 2nd Logo.

Availability: See the 1st logo.

Editor's Note: None.

4th Logo (2011-2014)

Nicknames: "Zooming Vat19"

Logo: TBA.

Variants:

  • A black and white version was seen at the end of an ad promoting the Das Talking Bottle Opener.
  • On a few ads, there's another screen showing random people singing the jingle.

FX/SFX: The text zooming and the ".com" text appearing in time with the jingle alongside a glow for when the text is in place and a line being drawn on the "CURIOUSLY AWESOME" part of the text.

Music/Sounds: See the 2nd logo.

Availability: See the 1st logo.
