Kit Delivery News From Yanks Abroad

Thought I should share this email I received from YA regarding their kit shipment:

"First and foremost, we want to thank you for using Yanks Abroad as the
provider of the new 2006/07 Fulham kit.

We received the following unfortunate news directly from Fulham's
merchandise coordinator yesterday afternoon:

"As you are aware, we have experienced delays in the delivery of our kit
from Airness with our consignment due to be delivered this week. We have
conducted quality control tests on samples from the latest consignment of
kit to ensure the product achieved the high standards that we expect for our
supporters. Unfortunately the kit has failed these tests and we have taken
the decision to reject the delivery. We are aware that this news will cause
great disappointment but we consider it a priority to ensure that we supply
products that meet the standards you have a right to demand."

Due to this decision by Fulham FC they have requested we immediately send
back the shipment of jerseys we just received from France to distribute
domestically this weekend. We are extremely sorry for any convenience and
disappointment this may cause you.

Therefore we at Yanks Abroad can offer you the following options in regards
to your purchase:

A) Keep your originally ordered shirt as-is, with delivery expected in late
October.
B) Refund of your purchase

Please let us know your decision and we will take the appropriate measures
accordingly."

So, it sounds like the kit quality was not very good. Hopefully Airness can get this worked out. While it is disappointing, I'm glad Fulham have decided not to accept a flawed product.

 

Yep, I got the same email... looks like we all will be waiting longer!
