amonte78 Posted November 25, 2015 Report Share Posted November 25, 2015 So MeiGray just announced their holiday sale. Only 35% discount on NHL gamers 2002-2014...I'll pass Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TMLFAN Posted November 25, 2015 Report Share Posted November 25, 2015 Wow, I wonder if not doing the regular bogo or 50% off this time around is going to hurt sales. Me personally, I would not make a purchase during this sale simply for the fact they chose to skimp out on the discount amount. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Silverback53 Posted November 25, 2015 Report Share Posted November 25, 2015 As the jerseys are getting older and some going unsold for, like, forever - they should give more discount than that, imho. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cowboys Posted November 25, 2015 Report Share Posted November 25, 2015 Me as well I thought the same bogo I was in on two but know no I will look else ware Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dsl135 Posted November 25, 2015 Report Share Posted November 25, 2015 As the jerseys are getting older and some going unsold for, like, forever - they should give more discount than that, imho. Yea, its incredibly counterintuitive... Jerseys don't sell? Offer less of a discount! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
amonte78 Posted November 25, 2015 Report Share Posted November 25, 2015 Have to wonder if the summer flash sale impacted their thinking. Now that was a sale! But good call, maybe the holiday sale has to compensate for that? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chow_hound Posted November 25, 2015 Report Share Posted November 25, 2015 Its not really Black Friday at 35% off. I think that older jerseys are much like older cars. They start high, depreciate with time, and then magically hit a nostalgia era in 15-20 years and become valuable again. However id argue that the mass amounts of unsold jerseys are not equivalent to my analogy above. These should at minimum be sitting at 50% discounts.

mfitz804 Posted November 26, 2015 Author Report Share Posted November 26, 2015 The jersey I was counting on being 50% off is only 20% off. As I already spent the money on something else, that kind of worked out for me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lhg39 Posted November 27, 2015 Report Share Posted November 27, 2015 I've been disappointed by their sales for the last few years. Their last full 50% off sale was during the last lockout I believe. Since then has been B1G1 at best or 40%. To know go down to 35% makes it very easy to not but anything, especially since they have very little I am interested in to begin with.

Devilsguy Posted December 5, 2015 Report Share Posted December 5, 2015 While 20 jerseys would make you one of the smaller collections at the expo, I've seen smaller. Plus they have plenty of non-NHL stuff there, so you wouldn't be out of place. Quite honestly I would be fascinated to see your collection there as I have gone every year the past 5-6 years and haven't seen an FHL focused table there ever. They usually have one or two tables available up until about a week or two before the expo, so not a huge rush. I think they usually start making calls about collectors tables in the April/may timeframe anyways. In short, I'd say go for it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mfitz804 Posted December 5, 2015 Author Report Share Posted December 5, 2015 Besides, it's 20 NOW. It's a long time until July... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brilliant! Posted December 5, 2015 Report Share Posted December 5, 2015 The moral of this story? Meeting me is downright transcendent. I'd argue if I could...but I can't. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
