They did 20 signed ones a night, if you asked for one you got one, provided they had any left. Same price, £20.

Does anyone remember how the different items were priced. On Friday night I was in a hurry securing some stuff in the merchandise lounge before going downstairs to get a good spot. When I try to add up the things that I got I'm surprised that I didn't pay more than £215. Yes that is a lot of money, but I think I got a lot of stuff for that amount.

The Obscure t-shirt was £35
The poster was £20
The bag-charm set was £15 I think
Volume was ???
Lyric book was ???
Nonetheless expanded edition was £63 I think
Dreamworld blu-ray was ???
Obscure tote bag was free

That would mean that I got both books and the blu-ray for £82. Is anyone able to confirm that I didn't pay less than I should?

You paid the correct amount.
Volume was £40, Lyric book was £11, Dreamworld Blu ray £32 and Nonetheless vinyl £62.
So 35+20+15+40+11+62+32=215.
I spent £200 on Thursday, similar items but got Disco 5 Vinyl (£32), PSB Since 84 keyring (£10) and without the Nonetheless vinyl.
Really good quality clothing, loving it!
So happy to get the signed stuff!

The clothing quality is really good. Wore my Obscure long sleeve sweater yesterday and felt good all day. Cosy too for the remnants of our Canadian winter.

Michigan has some delightful temperatures over the next several days. I'm driving north to visit my mom very soon and I'm glad it's the end of winter. I'm hoping the warmth crosses the border!

PS I think most of the merch was fairly priced for who, what, and where it was offered.

I agree, prices weren't out of line imho. Yeah the SW Ontario temps have been pretty decent and am cautiously optimistic summer is on the way, but old man winter has a knack of making unexpected comebacks. Safe travels!

I attempted to purchase the Chris long sleeve white t/sweatshirt at the gigs in a medium, but alas was unsuccessful. It's a long shot, I know, but if anyone has a spare medium, please let me know..🤞🏻🙏🏻

I got the following signed: Dreamworld, Volume, lyrics book, Nonetheless 3x vinyl and Disco 5 vinyl. I also got the free Obscure tote and also bought the Pet Shop Boys since 1984 tote. And, I got the PSB key chain, though I have not seen it in a while, so maybe that is lost.

I'm surprised they aren't selling the leftover merch on the website yet.

I’ve had the same thought for a couple of days now. That’s rather strange. I’m also fairly certain that they haven't sold all the Wednesday Warchild t-shirts.

Maybe they want it to be exclusive to the shows? They never put the leftover tour lithographs on the website amongst other things.

I‘ve read somewhere that at the end of Wednesday‘s show only XS and S shirts were available. So all other sizes are sold out.

Maybe, but only the Obscure, Jack the lad and Young offender t-shirts were branded as Obscure. The rest were part of PSB Since 1984, so I expect them to begin available online.
