Interpolic Posted January 13 Share Posted January 13 I picked up the away top on Adidas site just now, seems it's the training gear that is mad popular. Seems a very silly selling strategy. I understand the FOMO aspect they're preying on but surely it would be better for all concerned if they just made enough stuff to satisfy demand over a longer period.

macphisto Posted January 13 Share Posted January 13 I got the away shirt and t-shirt, very happy. The new marketing strategies of creating limited supplies are interesting and I can why companies limit supply to create artificial demand. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

wormy Posted January 13 Share Posted January 13 3 minutes ago, Steve Charlton said: In what other planet do you intentionally not release enough gear? In the psr age aswell I feel like we're in the age of 'limited edition' everywhere. Manufactured scarcity is in. Which is especially stupid in this case considering they're not even pricing it any higher than usual club gear and how many of our fans will so obviously eat this stuff up.

PENKAAA Posted January 13 Share Posted January 13 Just checked and no sweatshirts in store at the club shop, JD or Fenwick's as of 11:45. Plenty away shirts and t-shirts in the club shop still but pretty poor overall stock levels. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I understand the FOMO aspect they're preying on but surely it would be better for all concerned if they just made enough stuff to satisfy demand over a longer period. Things being out of stock feels like a very new thing in capitalism. Can’t help but wonder if they just can’t manufacturer enough or get it shipped reliably, so they flip into a scarcity angle in order to seem cool rather than unable to satisfy demand. I don’t even bother with stuff I think will sell out, can’t be bothered. Edited January 13 by AyeDubbleYoo Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sima Posted January 13 Share Posted January 13 By not overcommitting on inventory they both don’t expose themselves on cost and generate hype and FOMO. I lashed out on a drill top and a shirt yesterday. If I knew they were going to be in free supply I would have possibly been on the fence with the shirt and picked it up when it was discounted. They sell out immediately without any/very little stock to discount. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
