Yes

It is my son's birthday as well and he will be 14.

I found a Spock figurehead with a book of Spock quotes. At the bookshop
I was going to buy some Star Trek DVDs. From the tv series for him
Maybe a Star Trek throw rug.

Any suggestions for a almost 14. Chess mad, smart Star Trek fan ?????

Wow chess mad at 14.   He must be very smart.   I play chess but mostly against the computer as few of my friends play it.  It is endlessly fascinating and I endlessly lose, lol, but do try to learn something.  .

Sorry I don't have any suggestions for gifting, unless he'd like a little portable battery driven chess board which he plays against, unless he has plenty of live ppl to play with.

Can't give you links, but -

Star Trek Monopoly is good.  Depends which Trek though.

There is  Original Series, Next Generation, Continuum, Klingon

Type in Star Trek chess in ebay search - good stuff there

 There are also posters (cheap IMO) of Star Trek characters

playing 3D Chess.

A Star Trek 3D Chess Set would set you back a coupla hundred

I will recognise the approaching festive season when I return from my Sydney jaunt. At which time I will panic and, no I wont, I will just calmly do all my shopping decorating and cooking.

Don't know anything about playing Chess online. 

However, by being part of a Junior Chess Club, the opportunity to learn from coaches who offer alternate moves, strategies, etc. may be more beneficial than constantly losing online and becoming despondent.

This could be a little expensive of your time in transporting him weekly to such a club.
