Frustrating as hell but not totally unexpected, either the shop manager is clueless or there is a problem with supplier every ****** year.

I phoned the 661 1875 number immediately and sounded like a shop staff couldnae be ersed person that answered, when I asked for a commercial person to raise a complaint with. I was told they would be open on Monday. can anyone tell me how to contact them ? or do I go to the desk and demand a manager? this is gettin' on my tits, big style as I feel that they don't give a flying fiddlers ****!!

don't be silly. I only mentioned them , to raise this issue. besides, they'd probably offer a player wi' every letter purchased. how patient do you think is a happy medium then? I waited a week for 1 letter, only to find that another is out of stock. gies a break, the shop is crap, the attitude is crap and I doubt if the have anyone actually in charge of the shop. the counter girls were havin ' a rare time though, trying on lovely pink tops as they took them oot o' boxes.

I believe they are open to any sensible offer for their numbers and letters...
Worth a try as they do have some of the best numbers and letters in Britain right now!

Isn't there other shops available that will put prints on the back of tops?
For something that's relatively straight forward, you'd think there would be a number of shops with this service.

Sorry yes. Tynie has plenty. Apparently it's the fans fault. They haven't bought as many numbers & letters as they hoped!

Be careful what you ask for, they may try and palm you off with a player to go with the number! Originally Posted by monktonharp

Are you wanting the shop staff just to go off on make some letters for you?? If there isnae any in there isnae any in!! They cant do anything about it apart from tell you when they will be in.
Its not the fault of the shop staff that Nike dont make babies/toddlers kits or xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxl shirts.
Its not the shop staff who decided when the kit launch would be or the shop staff who were responsible for advertising.
Its not the shop staff who made the initial orders for strips.
Its not the shop staff that set the prices!!
The shop made a ton of dough, like tens of thousands, in 3 days i'm led to believe - that gives you an idea of how busy its been and the demand for shirts and names.
If you want to piss and moan then mail the directors!Last edited by MSK; 15-06-2013 at 04:12 PM. Reason: Quote edited

I tend to give my money to Hibernian, in most football related matters ,and when you buy a football strip, it's nice to go to the other counter and get names/numbers put on at source, rather than traipsing around the toon looking for someone else to do it Originally Posted by Hibercelona

I think its not so much the lack of numbers but perceived lack of service that MH is peeved about (rightly) - a 'sorry sir don't have - can I take your details & requirements and call you when available'....that would be a reasonable response....

I went to get my sons strip on Monday and they'd ran out of shorts. They're clearly not ordering enough if they run out after 2 days of sales.

where did I mention any of the above, other than numbers? and the shop staff attitude(which is paramount imho). possibly, the shop did make a ton, but it looks in that case that they could have made a fair bit more if they didnae piss off innocent punters wishing to give more, but cannae! I will be contacting the appropriate person, that is in charge of merchandise sales and I will voice my opinion, hopefully with no response about pissing and moaning.

poor show from the Hibs Shop I must admit however I think if you get down to the Hertz shop quick they still have several F's left, a selection of U's, some C's, a couple of K's, at least one E , two D's and hundreds of ?'s . Hope this eases your understandable frustration a bit Originally Posted by monktonharp

I would try the Hearts shop.
They'll probably let you pay it up over several months as well.
You'll only owe it to yourself anyway.
