Also, purely out of curiosity, do you buy a shirt every season (or at all)? Just wondering how much this situation affects you?

Yeh got a couple of shirts plus other stuff.also buy occasionally for children. never bought one last season stripes plus that big square just aint for me.

come on lads lets calm down a bit. this is a thread about the stanley store and not a slagging off forum for people who see the club in different ways. at the end of the day if you purchase something on line the price you see plus postage is the price you pay. you don,t have to read carefully to see if its there. its not a club rip off but to me its a mistake that should be rectified.

I go to the store and find them really helpful every time. Thank you Stanley staff!

So do i, but thats not an option for some fans, which is my point. some only consider themselves, for that i blame Thatcher.

What's the mistake with the online store? Some people may be able to purchase items excluding VAT, hence the reason items are shown VAT free, however, the amount of VAT is also listed and the full price plus VAT is also shown, I do not see the problem. eg if you go to Costco shopping, they also list items VAT free, with the small print showing how much the VAT is, which if you are not VAT registered you will have to pay. Same thing really.

sorry outback i can,t agree. for a start who are these people who can purchase items vat free as i,d like to join them all. just looked at a random 5 clubs that sell online through their shop and all adult shirts is pay the price shown which will include vat. never been to Costco but where i have purchased items vat is not mentioned, just the price you have to pay.

I never even heard of Costco, but wherever i been just the price yeh pay is displayed,

Website is misleading. Not normal for non-trade websites to show price ex vat.

Still not as misleading as my optimism after last season's game against Wycombe.

If you look on the O.A.S.S.C twitter page it says home and away shirts available from tomorrow in the Accrington market shop and displays the prices you pay presume you know where it is and have been in their Cashy?

What do people not get, the shirts are been sold on a business/consumer platform, hence the vat is shown separately, when you buy a shirt in any sports store or on the web you get a receipt and they show the vat broken out. That’s the law in the UK.

By selling these on this web site, one assumes there is cost savings to be made, not having to have a stand-alone web shop. Never mind the time of setting one up at this early stage.

It appears to me some on here, think the money is flowing in and there are no cash issues. One assumes the club is still trying to break even, so why add extra costs, when you can save cash using the web platform. I would say, it pretty good for the owner Andy (major shareholder that is) to be prepared to deal with the complexity of the issues in his own business, when it comes to buying and selling for a third party. (If that’s how it may be set up)

Buy your shirt and move on....

We will have to agree to disagree. Corporate business's that are VAT registered can buy items free of VAT through retail outlets. However, the ordinary guy or gal on the street cannot and must pay VAT at the going rate. Costco, by the way,is a large retail warehouse store where you can bulk buy. Mainly used by shop owners and businesses, but can be used by the general public.
