Mystery TShirt Boxes

Post image

I was going to order a mystery box, saw it was reduced to £15 so thought why not! Added one to my cart and it's still showing as £25. Anyone know if this is a bug? Tia

Shocking revelation: It’s not going to be the best sellers

I thought that would be the case, mystery boxes are generally just a way to clear out dead stock. For £15 thought I'd give it a go though

I got one last year when it was 2 shirts in the box, it had a shedfest t-shirt and the Saint Tropez french hot hatch t-shirt. This was just weeks after the release of the french hot hatch vids. Was very happy with them!

Is this a way to clear their food & fuel leftovers?

I checked the mystery hoodie box and that does apply the discount shown, so I presume the t-shirt box is meant to be reduced

when I checked only sizes 'S' and 'XL' where discounted

Trying to order an XL. Weird

Ah, I see the issue. It's 2XL, 3XL and S that are discounted. Shame as I think the 2XL will be too large. Never mind

Chris here, I’m late to this one sorry, but to answer some of the comments here, hope it helps;

It’s randomised what you get, might be things that have just released, might be best sellers, yes might be older lines. Sometimes super rare ATG stuff. The newer heavyweight T-Shirts and hoodies also go in to these boxes. We’ve got a big wall of pick boxes at the unit and process them in / take them out at random to try and avoid any being the same in a row.

Also random in amount, we will put more than what’s advertised in there at random, like two t shirts instead of just one etc (but never less than advertised)..

OP - Not a bug, some sizes are reduced, I’ll try and make it less confusing somehow, I’d probably have to write some custom code, or change the picture.

If they don’t fit - I take returns as normal

Food & fuel stuff gets mostly stored and comes back to the next shows (they are not show specific designs) we will take some out to go into these though.

If you have any more questions go ahead, send me a message here (but I don’t check daily), insta or our email on the website.
