Orwellian Wiress Posted August 17, 2023 Share Posted August 17, 2023 Do you guys ever buy secondhand merch from past years? Where'd/how'd you get it? It seems really hard to find. On eBay searches for "drum corps shirt" or "insert corps name shirt" usually just come up with one or two vintage shirts and then unrelated sports stuff. I'm not searching for any design/corps/show in particular, just stuff from the 2010s in general. Also, did Carolina Crown never release a show shirt for Right Here Right Now? I Googled it and nothing relevant came up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KVG_DC Posted August 17, 2023 Share Posted August 17, 2023 eBay but yeah. it's hit and miss. I've long been looking for the Boston Crusaders 2014 Animal Farm shirt that and the "rules of the farm" on it. It wasn't the main tour shirt but sprung up later.

keystone3ply Posted August 17, 2023 Share Posted August 17, 2023 Some of the corps still have some past merchandise available. But not much. I use to get old t-shirts in their $5 tubs on tour. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Richard Lesher Posted August 17, 2023 Share Posted August 17, 2023 I think it more or less comes down to being connected to the corps in question, or finding deals while on tour of corps trying to unload boxes of old stuff (which usually is going to be HOME LOCATED SHOWS, they don't truck around old stuff on tour). In my alumni circles of my corps in question people are giving away the stuff here and there from random years. I've purged all my stuff short of my "member" shirts and corps jacket, but long gone are the 88-92 year shirts of the generic season merchandise. My process has been offer it up to my alumni circles, if there are no takers then I donate it, if I can't donate it I throw it away. I'm not dealing with E-bay for this stuff.

If I knew how to post FB pics, the Wife and I were both wearing the 2022 shirt for our somewhat annual DCI Finals pic Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
