So if you asked Hibs to move your ST seat to another part of the ground for one game, you’d expect to still be able to control who sits in your original ST seat as well? That’s ludicrous.

It’s the exact same thing. Your hospitality IS a moved seat. It’s not a gift experience that Hibs are giving you because you’re a ST holder. You’ve just essentially moved seat for the game.

Not my intention to come across as rude at all but it annoys me when people criticise the club for doing nothing wrong, and if you’re going to derail a thread on here about the club shop to dig at the club for a total non issue then you’re inviting a rebuttal.

If you reassign yourself to another seat in the ground (which includes hospitality) you do not own two seats for the game, simple. That is not an opinion or open for debate, it is a fact.

The point you are making has already been addressed and refuted earlier in the discussion. What annoys me is people coming on making know it all comments without having read the full discussion. Refuted again just now I see… your example you give of asking to swap seats is also a completely different scenario. It is obvious if you are swapping something it is an exchange not a benefit as hospitality season ticket holder discount is described.

I can categorically say that in previous seasons where I've purchased hospitality at a discount I've successfully allowed a family member to use my season ticket.
On every occasion I've done this said family member has scanned my card, got into the ground and sat in my seat without any issues.
I can't speak for the process this season as won't be in hospitality until March but in recent years gone by the club have never resold my seat. In fairness I've never had hospitality when the ground is sold out but on every occasion the season card has scanned.

Same for me - no issues when I've given my season to friends when I've gone to hospitality.

Does anybody know if the shop will be selling half and half scarves for the RWE game

You’re really misunderstanding this ST discount for hospitality. It’s not a perk. It’s a gesture by the club to recognise that you’ve already paid for your ST seat for that game, and to part way subsidise the cost of your moved seat (to hospitality).

In the same way that if you move your seat to another part of the ground (which ST holders are entitled to do 6x per season free of charge), Hibs can resell your ST seat. It’s no longer yours for that game.

It’s the same thing. You had a purchased seat (ST). You’ve then moved seat (to hospitality). Your original ST seat is then Hibs’ to resell. Obviously you do not retain ownership of two seats for that game.

I know you’re saying that it should be communicated better but I’d say it’s a fairly simple concept to grasp that shouldn’t really need spelled out by the club?

Totally incorrect interpretation of the situation described and wrong as my previous experience and those of others have already stated. Stick to what you know!

They have them in, yes. About the only thing they had in any decent quantity, apart from the 90s retro kits, when I was in today.

Still got my original half and half scarf from 20 years ago.

You get a discount on hospitality for the home European game where you don't have to give up a seat so surely that blows that one out of the window.

You would only have your normal seat if you bought it in addition to hospitality though.

Lol ....... I was only joking really, but this is the sort of game where half and half scarves would be acceptable. As a rule I can't bloody stand them. Still can't get over the club selling them for the Aston Villa game. For a friendly, fine .... but a competitive game, not a chance ... those Villa ones almost felt like forelock tugging to your betters.

Agree completely. The Villa stuff was embarrassing. Sure it wasn't just half and half scarfs the shop were selling either. Would never buy a half and half personally but agree this game, given the historical context, probably just about makes it ok to sell one for. Not sure of any other cases it's ok for though.

[hibsforeurope]

I see the shop was brought up at the Supporters Panel meeting in May, with someone from Hibs going to discuss the concerns raised with Fanatics.

I wonder if these have taken place as it appears there's no improvement.

Looking at the Joma website their other clubs have massive ranges of training/off field wear available to buy direct from Joma. We have 6 very basic/bland items available through fanatics, this is not good for folk who have moved on from wearing playing kits.

would be interested to hear if the panel have been updated on this or when the next meeting is to hear the response from Fanatics.

That's the point being made. The person doesn't hold a ticket for the game yet as they're a ST holder they still received the stated discount on hospitality meaning you don't necessarily have to trade a seat or ticket to receive the discount and it is actually just a perk of having a ST

[Pretty Boy]

Anyone know if the pink goalie strip is available in the shop yet?

Daughter wants one but it's only last seaosns showing online.

[Hibee_Craig7062]

I walk past the shop twice daily on my way to and from work

passing the shop just after 4pm yesterday, it looked like there was stock being taken into the shop then - Presumably the new away kit which goes on sale today.

There is was still no sign of any more new home tops yesterday on looking inside.

[B.H.F.C]

Being totally out of new home tops is terrible. Hoping they have these back in before I go to Denmark.

Just been to the shop. Fully stocked with yellow kit and looked well stocked with the home kit too.

[Trinity Hibee]

What gets me is not every item is made by Joma so why have Hibs not arranged for some 150th merchandise?

[Berwickhibby]

Went to pay at till yesterday at the club shop for a couple of new shirts…sorry we don’t take cash …shirts returned to shelf as I had no plastic to pay

Its been like that for quite some time (I think from even before Fanatics took over)

That may be the case but cash is still legal tender is it not? I understand it might not be ideal but surely places like shops can accept cash.

I could understand a pop up stall/shop not accepting cash

Ideal, they were out when I was in last week and online still only got kids and women’s home tops available as well.

More and more places are going cashless now including shops and hotels etc. It's less costly and easier to run from an admin point of view. I doubt many sales will be lost because of it. I'm older than Methuselah's Grandfather and I haven't used cash for a while, we just need to get used to it. (Whilst declaring that modern life is rubbish of course. )

Could well be, due to living out of town I normally order online, just thought I would buy from the shop as was there early yesterday. I know they stopped taking cash at the kiosks was surprised this now at the shop.

Home and away kit were well stocked yesterday but apart from that there really wasn't that much of interest in there. It's pretty poor.

Legal tender has a very narrow meaning. Shops are free to have their own policies on payment methods.

With the ease of getting your cards on the phone these days I never have cash and very rarely ever carry a physical card either.

Yes the place was drab and dissapointing. Set up was like a discount shop. Boxes of stock on the floor at the cash desks. Place needs a revamp.

[Latapy'sVolley]

Like others have noted, there must have been serious potential to make substantial profit from the large travelling RWE fanbase, which we wouldn't normally get from away fans.

Yet, the stock on home kit ran out prior to this - despite it being clear a 150th home shirt would sell well, and now Fanatics sending unreleased third kits to supporters by mistake, prior to the club launching them.

Think there's going to be some very displeased members of the sales and marketing team at Hibs.
