Just to let you know, shirts have been $25 for wrestling (and more money for other things) for a LONG time. This is nothing new.

That doesn't make the price appropriate and it is actually more then that with shipping

But, you see, if they lowered it, they wouldn't make money. After all, those bad apples are not buying them.

I'm sure it was brought up in the other thread, but the WWE is a publicly traded corporation. They don't give two shits about their fans. The only thing they care about is making money. If something moves, they're going to hike the price up.

If someone is popular with a certain demographic (See: Cena-Women/Children), they're going to hike up the prices on that person's merchandise for that demo. If it doesn't move for that or any demo, they're going to stop producing them and get rid of their stock.

But your statements that they are too high and BREAK THE BANK seem to be fucked by the sheer fact the shit sells. If it was higher than people could pay (Breaks the bank), it wouldn't be selling. If it was higher than people would pay (too high), it wouldn't be selling.

WWE has always charged a lot for shirts, and the merch has done well. You talk about cost effectiveness, why do you think it's cost effective? Yeah.

I said that they have merchandise only for those stars that it's cost effective to have merchandise for (one that sell). And yeah, the merchandise is cost effective and good for business, but I think if it was a little lower people would buy even more. Do you?

The only time I buy a wrestling shirt is at live events. I like to go all out at shows, just to get into the atmosphere. Then I just use them for rugby practice or something.
