I’ve been waiting patiently for months for a sock-based post to air a personal grievance with the club store. The players wear purple socks that have a Freo logo and an AFL logo on them. I quite like having warm feet at the football, and footy socks are pretty warm, so I purchased some
Fremantle Dockers Home Socks from the team online shop. When they arrived I was disappointed – shocked even – to discover they have neither logo, and are instead just plain old purple socks.
I notice that the online store now has a disclaimer about the missing logos, but I’m pretty sure that wasn’t present at the time.
My question before I lodge a complaint with the ACCC, has anyone else been stung by the Home Sock scam?
