$125 to the UK?!  If anyone out there in the US wants to proxy for me and send it on I'd cover all costs, cheers

I am in Canada, not the US, but if you can't find anyone else and you want to pay the $25 instead of $125, pm me. I'm happy to do that. 

That's really kind of you, thanks.  I have an aunt who lives in the US, so I've messaged her - I don't like to bother her too much though!

How does It fit? Tight?

I'd say so, says an athletic fit in the product description.

guys still buy products based on what ed ved is wearing?  very odd.

I don't do it, but I also don't see it as the same as buying something because a kardashian/random celebrity is wearing it. we assume, I think, (rightly or wrongly) that if ed's wearing it, there's some sort of message there, and maybe it connects the person in some way to one of their musical heros to share that message. 

sometimes I've considered tracking down a shirt one of the guys in the band wore just because I like it, not because it was worn by one of them specifically.

Why does that bother you @mcgruff10 ?
Does it negatively impact your life if someone gets a shirt that a band member wore?

Might be able to hook you up too if it doesn't work out with your aunt. I'm in Vancouver Canada, but have a US address in Blaine, WA, that I can ship to. Was thinking of picking up one for myself too. I go to Seattle a lot for concerts, but the only issue is that I'm not going to the US next until August 1, so I could pick it up then and ship it through Canada Post when I'm back, but it could take awhile. PM me if that works for you.

What's your shipping rate to British Columbia? For Ontario it's $20 and Nova Scotia $35. Totally messed up shipping service they are using when all of USA is $6 bucks.

I get what you're saying. In this instance though, I really dig the company as I'm a massive baseball fan, and really love the bats they're making. Also, on a personal level, Fenway 1 was the most significant PJ show I've ever been to, or ever will go to, so I'd like to get that shirt.

But it's become kind of funny going to shows and seeing people wear various shirts EV has in the past. I noticed that a lot at Wrigley last year, and increasingly so at other shows too. It's almost the middle-age dude version of buying whatever trendy handbag a Kardashian has endorsed, lol.

I didn't actually check until you mentioned it as I assumed it would be $35, but it's actually $20. I agree, that's outrageous if it's that much more to ship to Atlantic Canada. If you want, I could do the same for you. Not sure the cost of shipping from Vancouver to NS, but would guess it would be less.

I get what you are saying completely.  

I also understand the other viewpoint where most of the time we buy stuff because of advertising.  So we can see a commercial or magazine ad and buy a similar piece of clothing based on a stranger wearing it, or buy a piece of clothing because your favorite musician happened to be wearing it and you though it looked cool.  The unfucktheworld shirt is pretty badass.

i buy every shirt that ed wears on stage. i have been doing that for years. it's way better than collecting buttons and stickers. IMNSHO

Yep, some people buy only because Eddie wore it which I do find odd.  Not the worst thing someone could do but odd.  I'd rather dress like Eddie than drink and drive like Tiger.

It's okay to like something someone else wears.
I've seen people in an elevator wearing a cool shirt and really wanted to ask them where they bought it.
