NOTE: The shirts that SJS sell are going to rise slightly in price.
SJS have been selling these at near break even for them, and the demand has been so great that it's consuming nearly all of their resources and now actually costing them. So to recoup some of their costs they've asked if they can bump the price slightly.
I've approved this as I honestly thought that they'd start a little bit higher and was surprised to see them be so aggressive at keeping the price low.
With that in mind shirts sold from this point onwards will be
£16£17 and not £15.I still think that barely scratches the surface of the absolute mayhem that must be occurring in their warehouse at the moment and still won't recoup costs... so if they ask again I'm telling you all now that I'm quite happy for them to go up to £17.50 (making it £20 per shirt inc P&P to the UK).
They, like us, should be producing a profit for all of their hard work and time, and whilst I applaud that they've gone way above and beyond to try and keep them as low as possible I think it's time that they make sure that they don't lose money through helping us with all of the logistics in this.
