Seems a number of people might not have received an email about this, from asking a few people, but the club are doing a concourse sale which from going up there this morning, had stacks of stuff at heavily reduced prices, all feeling quite like a jumble sale. This feeling will increase I'm sure as stuff gets more mixed around! When I was looking with one of my sons, much of stuff was unmarked in terms of prices (they are marking the boxes, NOT the items, which all show their original prices) but they seemed to be going around taking care of that. We were the first ones through the door (didn't think the drive there would be quite so quick!) and there were still a number of staff filling their boots (metaphorically), but STACKS of stuff left.

Between my son and I, "we" spent £101, and once home totted that up - original price for that lot was £449! So as you can see, there's some great deals to be had - and also some of the stuff was clearly heavily overpriced. A couple of pairs of shorts I bought were a tenner each down from £65 each, which is just a crazy original price! No trying things on (maybe you could try tops on, but it was so busy and crowded/lack of space between aisles of stuff) but at the prices, can be worth a gamble on fit.

No idea obviously if more stock will be brought out as the sale goes on, but here's the details from the BHA website:

Join us at the American Express Stadium from Thursday 29 May to Sunday 1 June for unbeatable deals on a wide range of official Albion merchandise!

Entry via the South Stand concourse gates 28/29:
Thursday 29 and Friday 30 May: 12pm until 5pm
Saturday 31 May and Sunday 1 June: 11am until 3pm*

All items will be available at various discounts throughout the event, while stocks last. Don’t miss out on your chance to get official merchandise at incredibly low prices.

Can’t make it to the stadium? Don’t worry – an online-only warehouse clearance sale will begin on 6 June, giving fans another opportunity to grab amazing deals.

Please note: The temporary shop at the stadium will close at 5pm on Wednesday 4 June ahead of the grand opening of our new megastore on Wednesday 2 July.


I suspect, as a side note, that July 2nd will be when the new kit will be available...

Is it just reselling the tat they couldn't shift from the shop or is it like the old sales where you'd also get the surplus gear the staff would get allocated?

Think it is mainly excess kit and shop stuff (clothing etc). There's also a crazy amount of mugs which are all Europa League game related. There's possibly some stuff which DIDN'T hit the shop, but not like the old days when you'd find players-worn training kits and suchlike.

Went there earlier, got a mid-layer for my son for a tenner and a t shirt for my daughter for a fiver, both Nike. Couldn't really concentrate on looking for stuff for myself as my son was being challenging, but the men's stuff seemed to mainly be huge sizes (XXL+). There was some very nice women's kit though.

Lots of women’s kit.

We struggled to find much for the kids.

There’s lots there, and jumble sale accurately describes it!

Nice fleece lined zip hoody down from £50 to £15, Mrs Earle got a different version ideal for spring and autumn matchday walks from the Bridge to the Amex for another £15 and I bought a nice black t-shirt with gothic lettering bha 1901 on the front for a fiver. Boxes and boxes of random stuff, heavily discounted and I overheard that another van load to come. Try not to take young kids. It got hectic and you need to focus on all the open boxes on the floor, not what the kids are doing.
