Not with old 'NEW' stock !!

 

Yes they do, Most large retailers specifically order new lines in advance for release at Christmas, They know that the increased Christmas turnover in stores will tempt customers to purchase the new designs and stock, This is why stores have 2 sales periods at New year and a Summer sales

 

A third kit people buy for more novelty than anything don't they, it's not like they buy it because they feel the team might be wearing it at some point.

If it's released at the start of the season all you are doing is diluting the sales away from it because the other two options which will actually be worn by the team far more than what a 3rd kit one will be purchased more.

Like I said, the 3rd kit is purely a revenue gaining product which makes more sense to release as a stand alone item than release with two more items.

 

Wow, a bit of commercial savvy! Something a bit different

 

BULL SHIT !!........... And YOU know it !!

 

I try CS, but Ronnie says it's bullshit so that's that!!!

 

Not at all, BB .....
I appreciate and understand what I know, but also know what I appreciate, in terms of investment and interest.
Only the BCAFC future figures will tell us if this shirt launch is a success or not.

Let's not be bitter, but merely accept two differing points of view, huh ?

 

And that my friend, sums it up. I was willing to meet you halfway, yet you just wanted more. End of conversation.

 

What?? Don't scream bullshit at a post, then not tell the poster which part you think is bullshit. Didn't think I was being unfair?

 

During June.

 

Ha, Ha,
OK ........ But to illustrate your post, as I see it (tongue in cheek ).........

Are you the type of person who works a 12 hour shift, buying a News paper on their way to work, and only getting around to reading it after your shift - When the latest News is just starting to hit the press ?

 

I understand what both you and Ronnie are saying, but like I said nobody buys a 3rd kit because they are looking forward to seeing the team play in it are they, I don't have the answer but I doubt the 3rd kit is even used before Christmas by the team is it? You buy a kit because you like the look of it, hence why all the retro kits sites are all over the place now.

So I'd say nobody would throw it away? We ask the club to improve on how they do things and somebody obviously has the data and history that says releasing it with the home and away kit actually has a detrimental effect on the sales of it and would be more benefical and see more spend against it if was released for Christmas.

 

I think you are missing the point everyone else is making if anything Ronnie, you still haven't told me which part of my post was bullshit.

 

You don't have to buy it Ronnie. I expect that there won't be as many made but enough for the predicted sales at Christmas. Some fans like to have a good kit however often it is worn by the team and have the money to purchase them. I buy shirts for my son, who quite often wears those from seasons past. He didn't get one this year though.

I don't like being a walking advertising hoarding so don't buy them for myself. If you could buy a no sponsors version (even paying a bit more) I would buy one, but demand likely to be low so I can't see it happening. The design isn't usually very flattering for a woman's shape either.

 

Looking at the pic accompanying that article, it’s got to be stripes.

 

I don't care what style/type of kit we wear as long as we perform.

 

It would be nice for the kits to be modelled by fans for the launch, or at the very least, non of last seasons failures...

 

I think there should be taser built into the collar and shoulders for the lazy crap ones who don't track back, run and shoot and pass or tackle. Reeves your safe mate can't find you or measure you up?

 

Apparently Avec have tweeted something cryptic. Anyone got a screenshot?
