The Sixers are reportedly close to shipping an Adidas Red Basic Logo Adjustable Hat to an Abington home for $15.95, marking the first SixersShop.com transaction since 2006 when a pair of black NBA Logoman socks were accidentally purchased and returned for $8.95.
A source browsing the site first reported the deal via Twitter with the message “on sixersshop.com…thinkin about gettin a hat.” The Sixers later confirmed the deal was in place after receiving an alert that someone had finally added an item to their cart.
The Sixers are confident that the deal will be finalized soon, but are also reportedly shopping a replica Evan Turner jersey to anyone that wants one.
“the first SixersShop.com transaction since 2006″
Classic. Seriously, I follow SixersShop on Twitter (don’t ask me why) and I think 2006 was also the year of their last tweet. Now that’s some good mktg.
Have to surf that site now that Christmas is coming, let’s hope there are Giricek jerseys left
Yeah I noticed this site kills sixersshop.com in traffic, which is kinda weird when you think about it being the official shop of a pro team. Get me a Ratliff jersey while you’re at it though
