[Albion] Club online shop stock

[northernseagull]

Those lasted long But in all seriousness, I will not whinge on what is the greatest Albion day I can remember in recent times. Wouldn’t mind a shirt with Fati on back to celebrate it just that bit more haha

Whilst it’s certainly true that the Albion are not a big enough name to get top tier service from Nike, I’m not sure that’s relevant here.

As others have said, and I saw myself in the Churchill Square shop on Monday, the physical stores are well stocked - I saw home shirts in all sizes from S to 3XL, for example.

However, for whatever reason, the club aren’t replicating this stock online, so if you only look there you’d think the club is out of stock of many things, when a visit to the physical store will tell you otherwise.

I’ve no idea why this is the case: do the club use a separate fulfilment company for online orders and they are short of stock? Or are the club saving all stock for the hoards of tourists who turn up at the Amex with bulging wallets?

Who knows? But get yourself along to a store if you can and you’ll probably be able to find what you’re looking for.

That's all very well if it's a local shop for local people, but some of us live elsewhere.

Tell me about it! I live in Spain and can't give them my money at all. Don't normally buy replica shirts at my age but suddenly I don't give a toss and want to wear it around the Costa Blanca!

Did they have the away one?

I rang the club shop (AMEX) last week and this week and they said they had no stock.

Same for me… seagulls over Spain need to represent

Only joking here but…. You don’t buy a shirt for years and have no intention to ….. then we sign a top player on loan, get a fantastic Europe draw …. And you want the club to send you a shirt at the click of a button. Just shows how difficult it is for the club to plan when on top of this the supplier is saying that they can only have a certain amount

Barber noted in his program shirt sales are up by 200% that alone should show the demand for this 'limited' shirt will be even greater.

Each season the demand goes up and they never stock enough.

I would imagine that worldwide demand for shirts has increased for most clubs (except Chelsea ), together with that for NFL kits, cricket stuff, etc, etc because of the widening worldwide markets. As one of the leading suppliers I expect Nike tell you when you can have your stocks, not the other way round.

Plenty of green and black shirts in today. I don't know what sizes they are but I saw loads.

I take your point but that is not quite true. I have been trying to buy the green and black shirt for weeks.

Was that at the AMEX store? I'll try and get there tomorrow morning if so.

Anyone know if the new Euro shirt will be in the store today/tomorrow?

Very much doubt it if the online shirts are pre order.

 

[Vaughan Storm]

Will the euro shirt be in store at all? The dispatch dates shown on the website don't look promising

I think it will be a blink and you'll miss type deal. I got worried so pulled the trigger immediately and got my sons shirt.
