SonOfWashington Posted September 3, 2007 Share Posted September 3, 2007 This caught me by surprise. Not even at reduced price. Brunell's jersey is cheaper than this. :laugh: http://store.redskins.com/productinfo.asp?item=259&deptcode1=537&sn=4 Are we really that money-hungry? Wait... Yes.

Shadowplay Posted September 3, 2007 Share Posted September 3, 2007 Yes, he is. Go into any Redskin store and you'll see loads of them, all selling at full price. I'm not naive enough to think Snyder had a hand in it, but the space where there selling these ridiculous Archuletta jerseys is space where they could sell something else.

DallasBlowsBig Posted September 3, 2007 Share Posted September 3, 2007 If you have any pride or dignity, you would not buy or wear an Arch jersey, I would not take an Archuletta jersey for free, screw him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

G.A.C.O.L.B. Posted September 3, 2007 Share Posted September 3, 2007 Would they be able to strip the name and number off the jersey and put someone elses on or are they stuck with what they have? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can't believe they even wasted material on that in the first place. I'd like to pull up records of how many Archuleta jersey's were actually sold in the United States. The Brandon Lloyd jersey's are also puzzling Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was at FedEx and someone standing in a beer line in front of me had actually shelled out money for a Chris Doering jersey. Amazing. Don't even think the guy was active most games.

SUSkinsFan Posted September 3, 2007 Share Posted September 3, 2007 Who's Archuleta? Does he play football? :paranoid: yea, he played on the punt team for a few games, I think he left because he felt we weren't adequately compensating him for his services.

SonOfWashington Posted September 3, 2007 Author Share Posted September 3, 2007 They're hoping some clueless mom gets it for her kid for Christmas.My mom got a Titans McNair jersey for my brother last Christmas. It was only $10 though, and I don't think these jerseys are even worth that much. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jabronijames Posted September 3, 2007 Share Posted September 3, 2007 Would they be able to strip the name and number off the jersey and put someone elses on or are they stuck with what they have? That would probably be more expensive than eventually reducing the price and sending them to somewhere like Ross or TJ Max to sell them highly discounted. It's all basic economics. They're selling the jerseys because people are buying the jerseys. When they stop selling, they will reduce the price. When they stop selling then, they will consider how much money they are losing by keeping the jerseys in the stores, when they could be selling something else in their place. When that breaking point is met, they will cut their losses and sell to a discounter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mark The Homer Posted September 3, 2007 Share Posted September 3, 2007 I can't believe fans are buying those jerseys for that price. I think the reason we see those jerseys at that price is because the store is managed poorly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chief skin Posted September 3, 2007 Share Posted September 3, 2007 Snyder thinks we are all suckers, raise tix prices, raise parking prices, raise concession prices. Why are you surprised there has been a long history of taking every advantage of us that he gets Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SeanTaylor'sFist Posted September 3, 2007 Share Posted September 3, 2007 Dan Snyder has about 0 say in the price of memorabilia sold in Redskins Stores. He buys enterprises, not sets jersey prices. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr. S Posted September 3, 2007 Share Posted September 3, 2007 you all do realize that once Archuletta was released, the price went down to 20$ in official stores. This is a non-official Redskins store, I guess there will be some delay, albeit a 6 month delay, but whatever. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chipwhich Posted September 3, 2007 Share Posted September 3, 2007 They usually take them off the sight and stop selling them. That is odd. I usually monitor the store to see who is getting cut. Years ago I remember smoot jerseys being discounted just before his contract wasn't renewed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
