MLB store in Ningbo China

[notherhalo]

The prices here were crazy

Hats half priced brought it down to $37 each, and the Chinese national I'm w/ who bargains on EVERYTHING said price was firm at this place.  

Apparently there are a lot of wealthy Chinese who have never seen a real MLB hat and can't tell the difference, so they buy it from this "official" store surrounded by Prada, Versace, etc stores selling things for American prices.

we're winning the trade war!

I don't know what happened to the price on them, but I just flat out refuse to spend more than $30 on a hat. I've seen some of the specialty hats going for almost $50 FFS. forget that.

Dude, Nother, strike now, strike quickly. Tell them you have the hookup on authentic MLB stuff, and people on this board can offload their josh hamilton jerseys.

Of course things there is so expensive.  You know how much it costs to ship things from China to the US and back to China again?

No

It's relitively cheap until the teamsters get involved. 

Foreman: Hey Larry, it says here 50 pallets of MLB Yankee hats from China, how many you count?

Larry: 44

Foreman: Okay, sounds good.

The next day.

Foreman: Hey Larry, we're supposed to load 44 pallets of MLB Yankee hats to China, how many you count?

Larry: 38.

Foreman: Okay, sounds good.

[Lou]

God bless the Teamsters.

I guess in case anyone missed, or cared, the point was that the Chinese are paying far above authentic prices for fake merch

@CaliAngel has a jersey he'd like to get rid of. @yk9001 has agreed to help him sell it.

Those chinese are idiots.  

And I support the Hong Kong protesters.

I dig it. I kinda want to get one of those jackets with a whole division and their stadium logos on it just for the lolz. I wonder if I can get an AL West jacket with the old Edison logo that used to be at the big A.
