I wish I had a reason to need one, because it's pretty cool (and definitely not lame). But it would end up in a drawer and never be used.

Correct, Japan & few other Asian country do use inkan (stamp). Example, when you go to bank to cash out of your account, you need it. When you getting married, you need. When you even receiving the package, you need inkan & signature/print name. 90% of where you would just sign, they need inkan & signature.
This have been the question for him. I told him that, in US, we don't use inkan here at all. It's cool swag to have for sure... but is there enough interest to have business? IDK, this is why instead of me answer for him, I let the member decide.
