Makes you wonder how much they cost for the materials and labour is , bet the cost of all our electrical gadgets would be frighteningly low

I won't reveal the Team or sport, nor the Company I worked for. Who supplied one of the UK's National Teams with their kits.

The Shirts for the Team were pulled straight from Stock, and had Names and Numbers added. The plain Team Shirts sold to the Public retailed for £36

The cost to the Company, for manufacture and International Shipping, as they were not made in the UK was just £8

Mail order shipping per shirt was £2.50, and a single shirt sent via Royal Mail cost just 89p. I was responsible for dispatch to Royal Mail, and had to work out the costings, Royal Mail never once queried my costings, and your talking filling a 7.5t Box van full of mail sacks twice a day, at the busiest period

The only Company who seems to be prepared to sell items at a loss

appears to be Tesco

who have been selling tins of beans at a loss

Supermkts have always had loss leaders, sold at below cost to get the punters in who will obviously buy other stuff as well. Practise is illegal in some countries. Other items are sold at 'cost plus' ie cost & a bit of profit. Then items like football shirts & iphones are sold at whatever buyers will pay.

It could of course be argued that large amounts of money are spent creating the myth that these sort of products are worth the prices asked for them & that money needis to be recovered as well.

It's well known that this sort of product is sold at huge profit & alternatives are available if we don't want to buy them.
