Guest s0uthard Posted August 10, 2015 Share Posted August 10, 2015 Went back to my HT that got rid of clearance and put the 3 record bins by the fitting room on the floor aka West Nyak, NY. I asked why they got rid of the clearance and the associate said they will be phasing out records entirely there and may also stop selling band shirts since the company is moving away from music. She said she even heard rumors they may stop with records/all music items even online and go full pop culture. If this comes to pass, it will suck. I will miss the BOGO $1 sales.

agua Posted August 10, 2015 Share Posted August 10, 2015 I know for certain clearance items, that some stores in a district will get all the clearance from the other stores, and they may phase out records at that particular location as it may not sell well there ya dig Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If they stopped selling band shirts, the company would go under... isn't clothing their top reason of existing at this point. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DecayToDeath Posted August 11, 2015 Share Posted August 11, 2015 Maybe 5 years ago. Now I'd say it's Funko Pops. I didn't realize people actually bought those. I thought they were just there to get in the way when I search "vinyl" on their website.

Guest s0uthard Posted August 11, 2015 Share Posted August 11, 2015 If they stopped selling band shirts, the company would go under... isn't clothing their top reason of existing at this point. They sell way more pop culture shirts than band shirts anyway. Getting rid of band shirts wouldn't hurt them too much. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheLegendOfMidna Posted August 11, 2015 Share Posted August 11, 2015 They sell way more pop culture shirts than band shirts anyway. Getting rid of band shirts wouldn't hurt them too much. I remember reading somewhere that they make 30/40% of their revenue through music shirts. They have a pretty high profit margin because HT makes deals with bands for exclusive designs and prints them themselves (or so I've been told).

fuckinandsuckinandtouchin Posted August 11, 2015 Share Posted August 11, 2015 I used to work there after high school.. they pay shit, but I had some great and bad memories there. It's fun picking what you wanted to listen to and just blast it all day in a retail setting. People are annoying though.. especially people that shop there (i.e. buying everything but music). They act cool and try befriending you because you work at hot topic even though your the fucking polar opposite of someone who buys an anarchy wristband yet paying sales tax for it. I also got drunk on a Sunday morning with a co-worker haha. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
