Yes it is because you are still relying on stock in store.

I would suspect warehousing holds stock for online sales separately - you say the club needs revenues so what would you do? Hold all the stock in the shop and not have the capacity to order online and end up with loads of stock in a store not wanted and requiring discount?

Sorry to the OP, but this sort of complaint does my head in (don't know you and you're probably a decent geezer) but as others have said, it was probably worth mentioning that you were driving so far and get one put by. Especially as we all know historically what the club has been like off the field. I would've thought something like that would've been a given to double check.

And also, I don't get why people don't just get it ordered online. Ok, you might not be there when it's delivered but you can pick it up at your local post office at a time convenient to you. Or get a neighbour to sign for it.

A lot to whinge about with our club but things like this are easily avoidable and a reason to wave the 'Sisu are shit' banner. They are, but things like this can be avoided.

Anyway, I hope you get your shirt soon pal.

disagree. A fan wants to spend money on CCFC products and as a result give the club money to enable them to improve the budget on the playing side and enable us to compete,but cant as we don't have the stock is not the same as blaming the owners for a player missing a pen

You're giving the money to Just Sport technically. They run the shop, control stock, etc. By all means complain to the club because enough complaints may make them re-think the outsourcing of the shop (yeah right). There will be specific contact details for contacting just sport/ccfc shop, should be on website.

I phoned up yesterday to check on availability of a home shirt (as a birthday present for someone else). Was told that i didn't need to have one reserved as they'd be plenty in stock. Low and behold having driven 80 miles this afternoon I ve been told that they've run out of the size I need. Absolute joke 2 days after the kit launch. They 'might' have some in later in the week....

To me that's a sign you should not buy one.

Cheers for all the replies, actually a sensible thread for once .

I made it clear to whoever I spoke to late on sat afternoon that i don't live in Cov and had an 80 mile trip to make, they said there would be plenty.

Nick thanks for the email address.

Size wise it was a medium, as a present from my kids to my mum who turns 70 this Friday. She's Cov mad (as am I obviously) and is a season ticket holder. There were around 20 small size shirts left in the shop.

Looked at the delivery option but no indication of delivery date as previously stated.

You do realise a large amount of purchases are now made online? If this had been an online purchase it would be made in two days, the delivery charge less than the petrol. No one would seriously contemplate driving with no gaurentee of purchase.

I tried to buy a specific TV in John Lewis as I was in Solihull last week and was told no stock in store.

Is that unnaceptable as well?
Click to expand...

It wasn't a case of the delivery charge, more than happy to pay it, however with no guarenteed delivery date and no one in to sign for it during the week led to the decision to drive up based on what the shop told me and I quote "we have loads in stock, they'll be plenty left"...

Thanks, lesson learnt, maybe I just too trusting. BTW, in no way would I blame SISU for this.

Seems a bit dumb on a customer service front.
'Regarding stock levels that could equally be a supplier situation the club have little control over.

The person who took the phone call should have used a bit of common sense and taken a shirt off the shelf for the rest of the day for the chap.

Get them delivered and get them from the post office or delivered to store. Ring up the Just Sport number or email them direct and they will probably sort it.

Not in to sign for so no point really. They moam of having lack of revenues then sell out of shirts in less than 2 days. Having no definite date for stock also was shocking. If they cant organise this then i wont give them my money simple really.

If it was urgent for holiday why not buy one at the kit launch?

Give them a call or email, they might be able to arrange something for you.

seriously people FFS!!! there is no massive demand for season tickets, NOPM being banged about. So the club (possibly) restrict the amount of shirts in store...in case the fans are also boycotting purchase, and yet the same fans are kicking off because they have sold out on the first batch. lol we really are a fucked up fan base!!

I am not a nopm i had a season ticket last year. Is it unreasonable to expect a club to have shirts 2 days after launching it to a big fanfair?

Give them a ring and order one to store.

Not really sure of the "I shouldnt need to contact them" mentality but kicking off online. They have obviously sold more than expected so they need to get more from their warehouse to the store, if you really want one before holiday they will more than likely be able to sort out a solution for you.

I do not believe the club are responsible for the stocking policy are they? They don't own the store.

Only if people want to do that more than actually get a shirt..You refuse to contact them to tell them your situation and you need one for holiday but will post online being annoyed about it.

Have you given them a ring or emailed to explain your situation to see if they can do anything?

You can't buy it in store as they haven't got any stock there yet, so you need to ask if they can sort something out for you surely?

Sounds a bit awkward as you were at the kit launch but didn't want to wait, can't order one online, won't ring them up or email to ask if they can do anything for you but wanted one that exact minute you went into the shop after they had sold better than expected.

What a palarva for a sky blue shirt with a giant sponsors logo across the chest and costing a whopping £45.00. They should be selling them for a tenner !
