I take it “authentic” is similar to Fanatics “Premium,” crazy current day is one cent cheaper.
Yeah, it’s wild looking at VHS players in Sears catalogs from the 1980s. Several hundred bucks. Offshoring to China has reduced costs or kept costs very similar depending on what the item is. In the 90s these items were likely made in the USA and Canada, so they were more expensive to produce.
Cool find though!
I definitely have that wild wing plush buried in a closet somewhere.
Basically double that for today’s team store prices.
150 for replica
300-350 for game jerseys
Even these 90s prices are excessive though.
Same for video games. N64 games were around $70 a game. About the same price as ps5 games.
