    ESP, greedy cash grab

    Got an email about new ESP swag.

    Was like, cool.  IllI pick up an ESP, black cotton T-Shirt.

    Add to cart... $6.00 shipping = $29.00 black T-Shirt???

    No thanks. Silly.

    Apparently you haven't bought a shirt at a concert recently.

      Hey Pushead, thanks for the reply.

      Are you aware of the difference in how a working band makes revenue on the road in support of an album in contrast to how a 40 year old guitar company makes it?

        What happened to all the cool artwork? If a search on the ESP store for "swallow" returns nothing, you should probably just stop.  Logos with dainty flair isn't really a thing when you used to have a brand. WTF happened here?

          Hi Stevie, thanks for the reply.

          I am aware of how working bands make revenue. Are you aware of how the market conditions consumers? If an audience is already conditioned to pay $30 for a t-shirt from a band that they'll probably pay $30 from another music-related entity?

            Lmao, complaining about a typically priced t-shirt. Try losing weight and you'll save $2.
