I just got the email and I'm thinking about their shoes, I already own three of the micromesh shirts(one gray, 2 striped) otherwise I'd pick one up along with the shoes. Good recball shirt, I prefer polyester for HS games.

I got the e-mail earlier today. Then I called them, I now have an order of 4 pairs of shoes coming my way.

It's funny, cause the last time I bought the patent leather shoes, it was when the Converse were on sale for $54.00

I guess I just have a sense for the deals

When I called earlier today, they said they only had limited waist sizes. It turns out my size was part of that group

. Now I have a new pair of pants on the way, Yay!!!

YOU GUYS HAVE GOT TO BE FREAKING KIDDING ME!!!!!

I was going to buy 3 shirts for $45. Here's the shipping!!!

Your shipping options:

USPS
(PRIORITY) $16.12
FedEx
(Ground Home Delivery) $17.09
USPS
(EXPRESS) $26.05
FedEx
(Standard Overnight ) $50.10

Sorry but that's BULL$HIT!!

All three shirts could be shipped FEDEX Next Day Air for 15 bucks!

Needles to say, I didn't process the order.

Just send them USPS priority! It will take 2-3 days...unless you are in a rush! They do have some nice deals, bought two shirts myself --> thinking about the shoes.

Sorry. I'm not spending $16 in shipping to save $5 each on three shirts. That's no savings. I doesn't cost $5 to ship Priority Mail. $16 is frickin' ridiculous!

Ok, I gotcha...Didn't realize that shipping was priority mail...BTW-where do they get these shipping charges from anyway? Is it possible they make money off inflated shipping costs?

Yes, exactly. They lower the merchandise prices, call it a sale, then raise the shipping and "handling." It's an old game, one that I'm not playing.

But the shirts were $10 off! But yes, the shipping here is really inflated...FYI-www.Underarmour.com has all their gear for sale there in all sizes and colors. Its nice because sometimes at the stores they don't have exactly what I am looking for.

I usually order an XXL. They were an extra $6. That's unheard of. They're usually a couple of bucks more.

$21 + $10 S&H = $31 for one shirt is no bargain.

I'm not buying into it either.
