Title: Cousins Merchandise
Post by: Ramps on August 17, 2010, 06:32:57 PM
RFC should work with Cousins and WCE to joint produce some stuff. Big money spinner waiting for the clubs and Ben if they do it right. Big seller, a framed print with a Cousins action shot, in a half Richmond/Half WCE jumper. Get him to sign it.

I'd rather just a Richmond one, and I suspect most WCE fans would rather a WCE one. I couldn't care less about that club.

working beautifully smokey, if we had any spare cash we'd hire you alas the online shop is goin poohouse lol ... anyway, the wce will make more than we will thats why a joint job would be a better result for us, they will sell heaps in WA- how much would we sell in Victoria?

And the email mentions a competition for those purchasing early (general public sales from tomorrow night on the Footy Show) for a child of the competition winner to run out on the ground for Cousins last game.  More or less confirms from the club itself that he will play this week!

Hmm I love my Memorabilia wall and I love Ben Cousins.

I actually don't like the piece at all.

No decent pictures of Cousins, 1/3 of the Richmond Jumper and 1/3 of the WCE one. The should have released a WCE one and an RFC one.

Just not visually appealing IMO. Give us a big 2 sides jumper of the front and back with 32 on it.

Its not about whether or not its appealing Pope - its about sucking as many dollars out of Western Australia as possible.

Mind you I would also like them to produce another type of print of just one image of BC in a half WC/RFC jumper ...without any real jumper (to bring down the costs)- just a print, have some details of his career on it and signed by BC. Sell it for half the current price of the current item and start selling it only after about 75% of the current product has sold. That will sell as well. A Jamie Cooper/Mark Sofilas type print is the type of print Im talking about.

PS - When do I get my employment offer from RFC  ;D

We'd only see half the profits. I suppose WA supporters would buy at least 75%, dont think RFC supporters can compete with the WCE supporters passion for Ben.

Would like to fork out some cash to the club for a Ben print that is signed with some action shots, 1 being him talking to Dusty around the boundary and some vision of him singing the song with gusto.

Richmond seems to be the only money collector here, big chance for the club to make massive money here IMHO. Lets hope they know how to feed the marketplace properly with stuff that can sell fast and at huge margins.

I have a signed boot and a signed Cuz jumper . A very sound investment, whether he stays on the straight and narrow or goes off the rails, either way its gunna go up, the cuz life story is not over yet, he transcends football.

The eagles wont be releasing their version of a cuz commemorative framed print, they have been compensted by the rfc for use of their logo and images. Big money spinner this, for all involved, just do the maths.

Blaisee any hope that we will get a 2nd print. One done by a Jamie Cooper or Mark Sofilas of Ben in a half RFC/WCE jumper action shot print?  I reckon it would go real well and at about $695 it would be a real good follow up piece. The first piece is real good IMHO but I reckon this is a huge chance for the club to make a huge profit.

How many times do I tell you Gerk, patent first, then drop it on the public.....You would have to make it out of some serious industrial strength rubber with enameled steel grips either side for some of his more enthusiastic fans.
Might get Duncs out and about on his bicycle again if you can put a seat pole on it.

Huge money spinner here. I also would like to see a print done for about $700 - one of the Cooper or Sofilas prints. Anyway, the club needs to get as much big margin stuff out into the market place as possible.
