Because the one thing we need to do more of is market 1982. It's been flogged to death and beyond.

Better that than spending 25 years pretending it never happened.

This season's kits are £17 and £15 but only in 2XL and above...

£3.49 shipping from the Kitbag and £4.95 from the Villa. Plus a £1.99 storage and handling charge. So now not only am I paying for a shirt from the club but I'm paying them to look after it in a warehouse for me. And they charge more than the people that will actually store it and ship it anyway.

The sizes are way off.

My shirt is 3XL and I'm not big. I am 5'8" and I am quite stocky but someone my height shouldn't be a 3XL ever.

I am an XL. I've been marathon training for nigh on three years as my date for London keeps getting pushed back, and I'm a 2XL in Kappa sizes.

"Storage and handling charge"?

God, what utter bullshit.

This tendency for companies to express what are effectively part of their COGS as some sort of thing they need to bang you for on top is vomit inducing.

Deliveroo do that, some sort of 'service fee' to pay for their platform / service.

Tyre Sales used to charge for 'nitrogen' when they filled your tyre. Probably still do. It led me to one of those questions I wish had come to me at the time rather than once I'd left, asking the bloke if it was by any chance an 80% mix.

Does anyone know of any discount or free delivery codes knocking about? I wanted to buy something for £17 but I'm not paying an additional £7 for shipping and 'handling'!
