I just got another one of these: link
Identical to the $30 one I got in Cleveland.
He apparently has a supply of these, Mediums only. Only puts one up at a time. Brand new shirts that don't smell like cigarettes...

Repeated for your convenience.
Now, if you want to run a thread analysis, I do not have the proper equipment.
Since you had, as you so eloquently pointed out, already voiced your opinion, I thought it would be fairly obvious that, in asking my question, I was soliciting the opinion of others on the matter. Like Hadrian, none of the three tour shirts I bought look like the one you linked to. For all I knew, you could have been a moron who paid 30 bucks for a bootleg t-shirt :-)
by the way... the cover for rotc is the worst I ever seen... is horrible... who is the responsable for that?.. I've seen bootlegs with better covers :S
I remember seeing those T-shirts at the Q+PR tour in San Diego. Looks genuine. Come on! Who would fake that shitty design?? Actually, I think that most pirate shirts and other memorabilia are way better than the originals. I bought a Magic Tour T-shirt at the Fan Club back in 1998 and the design was damaged with the first wash. I don't wear my Queen shirts anymore because of that. It's sad to see them fade away and it's ten times sadder when it's an original souvenir from one of the best nights in my life :S.

That's kind of what I thought, regarding the shitty design. Most of the bootlegs shirts I saw being hawked in the parking lots at the Q+PR shows actually looked pretty bad, so I thought perhaps some unimaginative bootlegger put the album cover on a t-shirt. I just don't remember seeing that shirt for sale at the merchandise table at the shows I went to, but I may just have blocked it out. The crest shirts were so much nicer.
Well maybe in Jacksonville (and other villages), they only had one T-Shirt to sell. I saw three different black T's and this was the one I went with.
Yes, I was a moron for paying $30 bucks for a T-Shirt so welcome to the club, right? It definitely wasn't a bootleg, unless Brian lets them set up booths with all the other merchandise.
My recommendation to you doubters is to NOT BID ON THE SHIRT!!! I was merely pointing out that I thought I got a good deal: link
$10 for a bootleg Made In the USA T shirt isn't bad anyway!
There were plenty of pirate Q+PR T-shirts being sold in Frankfurt (outside the venue) and each of them looked much better than any of the official ones (and the price was *at least* 3 times lower)...
That's always the way with concerts. Bootleg t-shirts...5 bucks, the real deal...35-40 bucks. Insanity!
These shirts on ebay do appear to be official, so it's a pretty good deal...if you like that god awful ROTC sleeve..:-P I didn't get one of those.
