japanjambo Posted June 20, 2014 Share Posted June 20, 2014 In the shop today. Home top nearly sold out again. Have sold nearly SEVEN THOUSAND of the beautiful things! Was told they usually have sold about TWO THOUSAND by this time. Next order in around 20th July. They are having to use August's order in July and September's order in August! Also having to order FOUR THOUSAND extra tops! Oh my gawd! Brilliant! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Bilel Mohsni Posted June 20, 2014 Share Posted June 20, 2014 Good news. Between tickets, merchandise and donations, we are getting some good cash flowing in to the club again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RobNox Posted June 21, 2014 Share Posted June 21, 2014 Fantastic news. Not sure how much Hearts get for each top sold, but sounds like we'll sell well over 10,000. I've never been one for buying the top as a rule, but just had to get this one for me and the daughter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Victor Meldrew Posted June 21, 2014 Share Posted June 21, 2014 The thing is, it isn't rocket science - offer us a product we want and we'll buy it in large numbers. Let's hope this is the start of the club appreciating that fact. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

best in the land Posted June 21, 2014 Share Posted June 21, 2014 Hopefully get more in stock wanted one for hold in July, not looking likely though. Good news with the sales though along with season tickets going well, but could lose out on more home top sales if we don't restock soon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gav M Posted June 21, 2014 Share Posted June 21, 2014 Old man tried to get the wee man a 3-4 yrs one mid week and was told won't have any till mid July. Wee man's 2 1/2, 1st strip. Had to be, can tell him the story behind it when he grows up. Will be purchasing a short sleeve for my self ad well, first time in a while.

Gorgie_Rules Posted June 21, 2014 Share Posted June 21, 2014 Bodes well for us getting another deal from Adidas come contract renewal time. Also for negotiating contracts with future shirt sponsors.

Remnants of Standards Posted June 21, 2014 Share Posted June 21, 2014 Hmm. Was going to get one this week. Appreciate the increased demand..but no new order in til the 20th july?

Was just about to order one but they're definitely sold oot. Baws. Would like to see those figures. Then compare to the old firm as well. The thing the OF have is that their strips sell to any number of jakes across Scotland (plus a few in England and Ireland) who never set foot near Ibrox or Parkhead, and some who don't even watch "their teams" in the pub or on TV, just to wear as some sort of strange badge of affiliation. I'd also like Hearts to sack the ridiculous 'exclusive' deal with SRM as we should be selling hearts tops online, on the adidas website or in JD sports (or anywhere else). A tourist in Edinburgh would only be able to pick up a hearts top if they went out to Tynie, which is ridiculous. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Bilel Mohsni Posted June 21, 2014 Share Posted June 21, 2014 It might be mild OCD but the lack of symmetry is genuinely sickening. Likewise it might be my sunny nature, but I think it can be forgiven by thinking of the smaller heart in crest as being a further back companion of the FoH one. I could of course be just trying to find an excuse to like it though. Perspective, innit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
