Seems like a bit of an own goal for the Nix in that case.  I assumed it was forced upon them.  Of the 33 shirts on offer, 13 of them currently have leading bids outside NZ.  3 for the USA, 1 for France, 1 for China, 1 for Italy and 7 for Australia.  At the end of the day it just means less money will be going to charity because of this misstep. 
how does it mean less money will be going to the charity?
Im aware of a few people who would normally bid on these shirts but have decided not to because of the add on charges. So its less money because their bids would have pushed prices up which in turn means more money for the charity.
i am in this group have every charity strip since forever spent many thousands of dollars supporting the clubs charities but not this time. the club could of just given certificates of authenticity with the shirts. i did not buy one of last years charity shirts as i was not financially able but a nice member of this forum gave me one for my collection and i am very grateful that they made the offer.
