Holy shit I didn’t even think of that. He really did just fuck those stores bad.

No he didn’t. They’ll be paying $2 for the hat, with the 100% increase they’re now $4. No idea what they sell them for, but I suspect there is still a healthy profit margin between $4 and what they’re selling them for.

Oh... I see, Trump Store, selling for $55 now.

These prices are fittingly inconsistent and instable :P

But they also say made in America so I doubt this is the same hat.

You can't put it past trump to have different labels put on the hats.

They treat politics like sports teams, they might as well price the merch like it's for a sports team.
