Neefie brought it up in a previous thread but...
You can buy that shirt from a retailer for 20, I can get the badge embroidered and the Sponsor printed for 6. 26 for that shirt and everyone involved makes profit. Why are Elgin charging so much? The Old Firm are selling theirs for 29. |

I see St Mirren who are also Hummel are selling theirs for 40 - it must be the recommended price from the manufacturer.

By looking at the "Purchases" bit of each item, the strips dont seem to be selling too well.

Quote: I think they call it MAKING A PROFIT. After all isnt that what being in business is all about. I believe that if you buy the shirt and put the badge on youself you might be breaking the copyright laws, I dont know for definite but I would think that to be the case. NOALL, If you dont like the price then dont buy the shirt. Go and buy an old firm shirt instead. |

Quote: Erm OK, why that is relevant i have no idea  OK i purchased 2 shirts form last season. Spent a fortune all in all cost me the best part of 90 as with postage adding as well.... Both shirts aint even been to a match infact I never seen the team even wearing them... Going on the above users way of thinking, at least if i had of purchased and old aulf firm shirt I would have at least seen the team actually playing in the same shirt that I purchasaed.... But again irrelevant to this thread. I REFUSE to pay another 40 so close after buying both strips from last season that the team didnt even wear |

Quote: It is relevant because NOALL has put in his post that the old firm shirts are 29 |

He was stating a price and not saying that he was wishing to buy one though!!!
A price that is blummin good compared to the Elgin price |

I think the idea would be to maximize profit. If the shirts were £30 I would buy one. For the milage I've had out of the 2 I bought just over a season ago
I think that changing the sponsor then changing the strip is too much for fans to pay out. I would have put 2 seasons ago, but they took nearly 4 months to
arrive!
