Who is selling the Jerseys

I was trying to track down a Phoenix Jersey. I looked on the forum this morning and thought I saw a message for this does anyone know who is selling the gear for phoenix carb2007-05-10 20:07:21

Reebok does all the A-league jerseys.

They will be all over town by the sound of it, but may not be until September .

Not sure if the club will have a shop themselves (but that would be the first place I buy from if they do).  Champs Sports in Cuba mall, Rebel Sports and RYOS on Lambton Quay are all likely to have them and (I guess) Champions of the world might as well.

y september?!the season will hav startd!

My mum is knitting some Phoenix replica jerseys as we speak. They will be on Trade Me by the end of the month.

And you wil be getting a letter from Reebok two weeks after that with a court date.

There is a thread on the site somewhere that said they woud be around $120.

Yeah the boss from Ryos was offering 20% discount on playing shirts that are pre-ordered but it dissappeared almost as soon as it arrived. Hard News2007-05-14 13:38:00

Folks,

We did have one possible outlet for merchandising promoting sales on here.  We had to make a call on whether it was appropriate for one outlet to be promoting on here while others were not, and perhaps more importantly should we be promoting outlets that have supported the game of football in Wellington over those that have not really done so prior to the existence of the Phoenix.
 
To that end the post with the offer was deleted while we consider what would be an appropriate forum for letting people know where they will be able to get Phoenix merchandise.

Cheers

Gees thats a bit ruff don't you think?  This is a forum after all, and if it wasn't offensive or illegal I don't think you should censor someone trying to promote the club (and his business).  If other outlets haven't come to the party and started advertising well tuff bikkies for them, bad management. 

Hard News mentioned all the places you are likely to be able to get merchandise. There have to be controls otherwise a) The forum would be full of adds not banter b) You might blame the moderators if a business did not fulfil their advertisement

Hey Vim,

If you check you will see that it was stated that the Fever (who have no official link to the club) are evaluating the groups position on how these issues should be addressed.

Other groups and companies have approached the Fever in this same space, however, rather than turn these fan boards in to a bunch of free advertising space for shops (be they existing football suppliers or the ever welcome bandwagoners) at this stage we'd rather keep it for fan opinions.

As an aside, if it was me personally, I'd be buying straight from the club so all the possible money goes to funding my team, rather than a cut for outlets and distributors.

I agree with not wanting the forum to be turned into an advert-fest, we get enuf on tv, however I do believe that if there is a thread that is called "where do I buy the shirts", it is understandable to the readers that there will be someone who will put their hand up and say "at my place".

Would an Ads section in the Off Topic section be the way to go?

No Vim, this is not the original thread. The original was started by the retailer. If you don't appreciate the moderaters attempting to make this forum better by moderating the content then that is up to you. To date we have had to pull a number of posts, warned about a dozen people, and even banned a couple. No pleasing everyone. As HN says, we are still evaluating how things like this can be addressed. Hard News2007-05-15 23:04:45

At what point will I be able to order one over the internet? I don't think I'm gonna be in Wellington anytime soon...

Hey

Cheers ryos... nice spelling too...

September!!! Dayyuumm. They should bring them up earlier, get as many sales as possible.

Also important to note that the A-League have an exclusive deal with Rebel Sport and also FootLocker so would not expect to see "offical" merchandise available in any other retail outlets. Of course you will be able to buy online through the phoenix website and the a-league website and also on match day from the ground

yeah they need net purchases,
Esp for those who are not in wellington.
Come on merchandise is money.

I want one now-why the fck is reebok taking so long?

I might end up supporting another club!

Hate to disapoint you but you may be in for a battle. Heck one of the knights players was part owner in a sports retail chain and he could not get offical reebok apparel. Many outlets in akl wanted to but you mite find that contractual regualtions will prevent this. I hope things have changed but last time i saw the contract it was pretty water tight.
