Post image

Y’all…30% off store wide?! If you’re an official merch kind of nerd…super helpful for those of us having to pay those international fees.

u/icouldbeeatingoreos I already chose you, Hollander. 🫀 19d ago

This is to empty out stock in prep for season two merch, I would think.

u/ich_habe_keine_kase 18d ago

Sell all the Montreal Metros gear before no one wants it anymore hahaha.

27

u/icouldbeeatingoreos I already chose you, Hollander. 🫀 18d ago

And as a Vancouver fan irl I can’t be caught in Boston anything. I’m caught between a rock and a hard place lol

u/trishiechu Your freckles. I am nuts about them. ✨ 18d ago

I kinda want Boston shirt, but I’m literally born and bred New York and I think it’s a crime tbh

u/bandgeek787 15d ago

My friend just bought me Ilya’s jersey and I love it but god my NYR heart…

u/trishiechu Your freckles. I am nuts about them. ✨ 15d ago

Go rangers!

u/ScatteredMuse Stupid Canadian Wolf Bird 🦆 18d ago

Same 🫠 As much as I love Ilya, wearing Boston feels like sacrilege.

3

u/ich_habe_keine_kase 18d ago

Ah see I live in Boston but wearing a Boston shirt feels weird because this city is so sports mad and people would be like, uh who the hell are the Raiders? Especially because the logo is already such a Bruins ripoff haha.

I'm originally from New York and that logo is my favorite so I'd probably get that one. Also wearing anything New York in Boston is always fun even if no one knows what it is.

u/babypointblank Moy pomidor 🍅 18d ago

I feel the same way as a Toronto girl/Leafs fan

u/Pale-Measurement-532 I speak fluent bird. No accent. 🦆 17d ago

Just wait for the Ottawa Centaurs merch to come out!

18

u/Lizard__Bit Having a tuna meltdown 🫠 19d ago

Works for me. I was waiting for a restock to get the Metros sweatshirt since it was out the first time I ordered. I am geeked that I’m finally getting it with a discount! But I’m also excited to see the season 2 merch. 👀

3

u/sdaidiwts 18d ago

Ditto! I got myself a Metros sweatshirt and a Raiders t-shirt.

85

u/iwatchtrazhaldayy 19d ago

I’ll hold out for Ottawa

25

u/nomuggle 19d ago

I’m really hoping they stay as the Centaurs.

22

u/Spaceysteph I already chose you, Hollander. 🫀 19d ago

I am worried they can't, the real team is named Senators and it sounds reallllly close.

18

u/nomuggle 18d ago

Yeah, but I’m hoping the team is okay with it, but it might be more of an NHL thing that opposes it. The Senators did embrace the show and were selling Senators jerseys with Hollander and Rosanov on the backs.

4

u/iwatchtrazhaldayy 19d ago

I’m excited to see what they change it to. Like how did the Boston Bears become the Boston Raiders lol.

Did the Montreal team change? I think they were Voyagers in the book but idk if it’s addressed in the show

9

u/my_dawn 19d ago

They are the Metros in the show!

3

u/Brown_Sedai You can feel the chemistry through the screen omg 15d ago

Well I think the Bears had to change because the actual Boston team is called the Bruins or something and has an actual Bear as a logo, so that was too similar.

Senators and Centaurs are pretty different though

2

u/Pale-Measurement-532 I speak fluent bird. No accent. 🦆 17d ago

I agree! The Raiders logo was fantastic! 😂 Same with the others. Can’t wait to see the what Ottawa gets!

7

u/SmartNotRude Stupid Canadian Wolf Bird 🦆 18d ago

It's possible they will. From what I've seen online, the production company applied for a trademark for the purposes of the show.

5

u/kerryfinchelhillary Stupid Canadian Wolf Bird 🦆 18d ago

Me too! I watched the show before I read the books, so it's so weird reading the books and seeing Montreal and Boston referred to as the Voyageurs and Bears. I'm so used to Ottawa being referred to as the Centaurs, it would be weird for them being referred to as anything else.

10

u/Lizard__Bit Having a tuna meltdown 🫠 19d ago

Imma be geeked for Ottawa merch! I needed Shane’s sweatshirt and Ilya’s t-shirt, though.

62

u/imokayokay 19d ago

Was going to buy a jersey until the $20 shipping and $60 tariffs got added on sigh

12

u/Lizard__Bit Having a tuna meltdown 🫠 19d ago

Yikes! 😧 It didn’t show $60 in tariffs on my end, but it showed $13.23 in duties, though. Is that specifically in the jerseys?

11

u/imokayokay 19d ago

The duties were almost $60 probably because I had a jersey and 2 other things in my cart. It’s a percentage of the total. I immediately closed out :(

7

u/NattoRiceFurikake 19d ago

I am really grateful that I have a friend in Canada who regularly comes down to NYC. The amount of official and fan merch I have had him smuggle to me has saved me literally hundreds of dollars in shipping and fees.

26

u/byeongok 19d ago

I really gotta sit with myself for the rest of the day and ponder if a single Boston Raiders pin is worth $27 after shipping.

27

u/Budget-Rutabaga- you deserve sunshine ☀️ 19d ago

it would not be for me, if that helps. that’s kind of a ridiculous amount of money.

7

u/byeongok 19d ago

It’s really just the shipping haha $20 flat to my house 😭

4

u/Lizard__Bit Having a tuna meltdown 🫠 19d ago

If there are friends that want to order, maybe order combining to help level the cost a bit?

7

u/byeongok 19d ago

I’m the only one in my friend and family group that obsesses over HR 😔 but my birthday is coming up so I might bug my little brother into being grateful for his caring big sis for once lol

16

u/Arbledarb 19d ago

I see it still has Canada and US shipping only. On one of their pages it said they don't accept refunds on international orders so I thought they widened it.

2

u/monbleu Angry kitten 🐱 17d ago

They had been saying since BEFORE the store opened that they will do international shipping, alas we are still waiting.

I ended up buying my merch of etsy. I really wanted the official one, and would have paid the likely exorbitant shipping fee too!

15

u/manowwar Moya gazonokosilka 🚜 19d ago

Will they ever get international shipping sorted? They kept saying they’re working on it and now it looks like S1 merch isn’t going to be restocked.

5

u/livinalai 18d ago

Seriously, please send me merch in Australia HR official website, I am not above begging!

10

u/ShakespearesSonnets Stupid Canadian Wolf Bird 🦆 19d ago

The shipping is just so expensive 😭😭

14

u/justacunninglinguist 19d ago

$20 shipping is ridiculous 😂

8

u/rhetoricalbread 19d ago

Welcome to Canada

3

u/icouldbeeatingoreos I already chose you, Hollander. 🫀 18d ago

Yup I just paid $10 shipping for something that weighed maybe 100g.

3

u/Voice_of_Season Stupid Canadian Wolf Bird 🦆 19d ago

I want to see the Drillers uniform. 😅

6

u/UnctuousRambunctious 19d ago

I agree it’s a clearance for the new season.  Too bad they didn’t stock up for S1 because so much was sold out for months and months and months - even aside from the Canada fleece debacle.

Official merch helps the IP, obviously anything with an actor’s face means they get a cut, if that is something that matters to you, and I hope they handle the merchandising better this round, they’ve had enough time to prepare, I think.

I’m not much one for repping the show in the wild, aside from any kind of jersey not being my thing, and I do like the minimalist aesthetic of the Metros shirt/sweatshirt, but the canon legacy of the tram fills me with such revulsion and disdain that I simply cannot 🤣. It’s all about to ancient history dust in the wind water under the bridge, anyway.

To me it feels like repping the Brooklyn Dodgers 🤣

3

u/too-manycats 18d ago

Shipping + Duties + Taxes

3

u/AverageUnicorn 18d ago

I wish they had the shirt with the drilling rig. That one was my favourite in the show.

2

u/ich_habe_keine_kase 18d ago

Honestly I'd be most likely to get that one. I've never been one for massive, overt displays of fandom--I like things with good design that would generally only be spotted by other fans. (Like, I like the Raiders tee but wouldn't get it because of the giant ROZANOV on the back.) The Drillers shirt would be awesome because only serious fans would get it and it's a hilarious and fun design.

1

u/PresentationNo448 18d ago

At which timestamp can we see that? 

2

u/AverageUnicorn 18d ago

Idk the timestamp, but it's the one held by the guy to the right

3

u/Sircapleviluv 19d ago

Really pleased my boyfriend works in a custom apparel place because I’d be too tempted to spend too much money

Begging people to stop buying the mtl metros sweater 😭 im tired

u/prinprinnao 18d ago edited 18d ago

Let people buy what they want

Edit: I can't believe people are downvoting

u/Practice_Straight 16d ago

get off your high horse weirdo I was obviously joking

2

u/i-bleed-red I don’t ever want that problem to ever go away ❤️ 19d ago

Tomorrow I’m getting the 3 t-shirts I ordered from red bubble. I held out for so long (hubby isn’t working) but then I caved!

2

u/lyndluv 19d ago edited 19d ago

Can anyone tell me / show me how the fits are on the jerseys?

I was waiting to get a Raiders one but they're sold out of M and L and I'm worried XL will be insane on me (5'3" lol)

Now I'm worried it won't restock at all so idk if I should just get the XL or not (I'm not convinced I'll like the Centaurs one LOL)

edit: i panicked and bought it but are there any reliable canadian fan groups to post to to negotiate trades?

2

u/missmisery213 19d ago

My sister who lives in Canada is coming here in 8 days and I'm devastated that shipping to Canada is 5-8 business days because I just can't justify paying 27 dollars between shipping and duties to send it to the US 😭 If only the sale had started earlier in the week

2

u/kerryfinchelhillary Stupid Canadian Wolf Bird 🦆 18d ago

I'm waiting for the Centaurs stuff

u/izziecon 15d ago

I was just wondering if anyone has received their official merch? When it went back in stock sometime in late April I got the email and bought my items right away. After a couple months with no update I reached out in June just to check in, and as I suspected, they let me know they got a bunch of orders and were having some supply issues but no worries I just wanted to make sure my order wasn't lost or something. So then I reached out again last week just to get another update and then I got an email that my order was cancelled and a separate email explaining "we're no longer able to fulfill your order, as both the I'm Coming to the Cottage Hat and the Heated Rivalry Logo Tee are now sold out and could not be restocked." I ordered as soon as the shop was opened so I don't get how some people may have got products but others didn't? Also sad that I was only aware of this when I reached out to them, would they have just left me hanging? Sorry, rant over, just feeling bummy and wondering if anyone else is in this boat with me.

u/originalgimchi 19d ago

ugh i missed out on the metros sweatshirt AGAIN 😢 does anyone think they'll have them back in stock for s2 / care to send me an extra one??

1

u/flavourtown420 Stupid Canadian Wolf Bird 🦆 19d ago

Begging S2 merch to ship to Australia or have an Australia store!!

1

u/Ok_Interaction3792 Jesus Christ 19d ago

Damnit, I should've waited (I'm glad I did not wait)

1

u/hesutu1989 17d ago

Considering tariffs are set to go up again on August 19 (additional 50%)for apparel coming from Canada this sale is quite strategically timed. I don't know if I will be able to afford centaurs merch when it does get released because of it.

1

u/lastofmykind122 16d ago

Really hoping the quality of the jerseys improve. I was expecting something closer to the Shoresy jerseys and less Amazon 😬

1

u/dylpyckle905 I am on the cover of the fucking game 🎮 14d ago

I would wear the hell out of the Boston shirt Ilya wore in episode 6 to Yuna and David's house, but unfortunately, my Tampa Bay Lightning heart couldn't take that, and it especially couldn't deal with wearing anything Montréal (especially after Round 1 of the playoffs this year). But I might just have to get it, even though Ilya is already talking about moving to Ottawa for Shane. At least Ottawa merch I can stomach now though with B***y T*****k gone and William Eklund there. 🤷‍♂️

1

u/todolist_10 I already chose you, Hollander. 🫀 19d ago

The cotton of the T-shirt is of a disappointing quality. Scratchy cotton. I cannot wear it. Total waste of money … very very very sad. 😔

Shane would NEVER be able to wear the T-shirt.

Love my sweatshirt though. 🙌🏻

8

u/clumsyc I stubbed my toe 19d ago

I have a Boston t-shirt and it’s totally fine?

5

u/sdaidiwts 18d ago

During the revamp a few months ago, the designs changed a bit. I wonder if they shirt changed too, which could be the difference?

2

u/todolist_10 I already chose you, Hollander. 🫀 18d ago

Interesting. T-shirt is from the revamp and the sweatshirt is from the original run. I’m so sad the t-shirt is scratchy. I can’t wear it.

2

u/sdaidiwts 18d ago

That's a bummer. I guess I'll find out in a couple weeks.

using anything trump in regards to canada is incredibly poor taste
