Show Specific T-Shirts

edited September 2009 in The Porch
After seeing the cool "show specific" Pearl Jam/Sports Team shirts in Seattle (but having the Seahawks one sell out just as I got to the front of the line...d'oh) and seeing them listed on Ebay for excessive amounts($150 for the Seahawks and $199 for the Sonics), I wonder if it would be possible to do a presale for 10 Club Members like is being done for posters? In other words, if you bought tickets to a show through Ten Club, you get an opportunity to buy the show specific shirt for that night so they get into the hands of fans and not crazy e-bayers.

(I realize this may not be possible as it may require a certain amount of man power, time, etc but thought it was a valid suggestion. It is not meant to a complaint that I did not get a shirt).

Looking forward to this Friday's show!

    10c already hooks us up with posters and tickets, now merchandise? do you want them to wait in line for your beers at the show too?

    i like the idea, but shouldn't we draw the line somewhere?

    Was not meant to a complaint (as I said), it simply sucks to see the limited edition stuff on e-bay the day after the show at a huge mark-up....and no I'm willing to wait in line for my own beers.

    But not willing to show up when the doors open?

    I was there when the doors opened. The merch booths were very busy from the beginning. Regardless, I was simply making a suggestion (and I see there are similar threads so I'll cease with this one),

    Or make more so everyone at the show who wants one can get one. Then send the remaining to a third world country or recycle them. I guess I just don't understand making a shirt "limited." Make more=sell more + happy fans.
