I don't begrudge them trying to make more money. I do, however, have a problem with making the same thing 5 times and expecting/hoping people to shell out each time.
A limited edition of anything is only worthwhile (to me) if it is sufficiently different from the regular editions. I don't feel either of the 2 LEs are. To be honest, had I known that the home, away, and 3rd shirts would look the way they do, I'd have got one of each of them together, rather than the black and gold version.
At this point, I'm really just ANGRY MAN HAMMERING KEYBOARD (lol) though, so all I can do is exercise my right and not buy them
(also, another mini-rant; Pro-Direct collecting VAT from me even though they shouldn't is at best lazy and at worst blatant profiteering.)
