Great to see the Club Shop well stocked and busy on Tuesday. Would still like to see some additional lines though appreciate the financial restriction re stock. Also greater availability online would reduce the need for physical stock in the shop. Personally think beach towels would be a bestv seller as people holidaycall year round now and seen loads of older ones on Facebook. Any other suggestions re additional items ?

I think it was entirely new stock when I went in there, people were queuing out of the door to look round and buy things. Nice to see the Club finally doing something on the retail side of things as it has been lacking for some time.

The key to it is making it all available online. I know it’s time consuming cataloging it all but worthwhile with the extra revenue they would make

Outlanda have taken over the management of the shop including the supplying of leisurewear, some of the stuff looks smart although the club name going up the sleeve is horrible.

Speaking to them in the shop on Tuesday, Outlanda haven’t taken over the shop at all they are simply helping get the new lines going. the volunteers still run it as yet always have, outlanda are helping getting over the bump of having and selling the new stuff up and running and also enabling the current shop staff to continue their great work.

What if people are actually buying our merchandise from some other CFC outlet & then returning it to the club shop?! Wait...

Could the council help out by letting the club have a stall in the market or 1 of the empty shops in the forum where it is far more accessible to more people

Evening all..just passing on some info relating to some comments earlier on this thread.
Outlanda are simply suppliers helping the club.
Items with Chester FC down the sleeve can be ordered without Chester FC down the sleeve if that's preferred.
There were items sold without a receipt on Tuesday night as not all of the items had been added to the toll system but should be rectified for Saturday.
Finally, all items are now online and sales have commenced with orders already coming in.
Hope that put some answers to questions raised earlier.
Thanks Jeff

Cheers Jeff, good to know the lettering down the sleeves isn’t standard. I love the fact that you both get on well now. Before our troubles in January 2018 you were often at loggerheads. It's a bit like a soap opera... if there are two people who can't stand each other, you know full well they'll end up together! #cfcbromance

At the crisis meeting, we both said it was time to bury the hatchet and work together to ensure we had a club to both support. Jeff

Great that the online shop is all working now. The only thing I think could be improved, is when looking at t-shirts or polo shirts that come in different colours, you can't see a picture on them - only one picture shows up. Could that be changed?

Sorry but are you having a go at me ? Yeah. Ok fair enough.Firstly I congratulated the Club on how good the Shop was on Tuesday so presume you are upset by my comments about the non issue of receipts? Given previous criticism of financial issues re no receipts for car parking, no receipts for paying to enter the Blues Bar plus previous financial issues re the Blues Bar and laundry bills etc. I was only trying to stress the risk of not producing receipts for all transactions including credit card receipts. All club copies are then subject to subsequent audits. As an example what is to stop someone stealing an item from the Shop and bringing back for a refund and no proof of purchase is required As I said just trying to protect my club from repeat financial issues. Sorry if you think I'm being a pain!

Sorry if you think I'm being a pain! I think it’s quite obvious that not issuing receipts is not the long term intent of the club. It’s clearly a short term issue that, of course, requires rectifying. But you didn’t ask the question as to why it was or when it’s be sorted, you implied that there was a clear & present danger. It was at least hyperbolic & at worst having an unnecessary dig at a club shop run by volunteers.

It was at least hyperbolic & at worst having an unnecessary dig at a club shop run by volunteers. Just to correct your criticism a) if you read my previous posts on this thread I clarified that I was not criticising the Club/Shop b) at the time of my purchase I was just told that there was no need for a receipt but not advised that this was a temporary issue. c) my suggestions re greater online availability and restocking of beach towels were only meant to help the Shop make more money and not a criticism
Hope this clarifies matters SB Come on you Blues !

Apparently it will be months before more home shirts are in stock.... another great shirt cock up., they will probably be in when we choose another shirt....by the way did we get a say in this shirt like I thought we were supposed to??
Hopefully when we get a new kit supplier they can supply what we need when we want it...
Nice to see the new stuff going well though, about time the club had some suggestions that were acted on.
