I hate this fucking gift shop. Also, not a dollar goes to a charity. (gothamist.com)

Responses:

*technically* the merch is advertising the current building, right? like buying an Empire State Bldg hat or something? -- nm - San Andreas May 22, 06:42 6
- Technically, yes. Still not okay with this. -- nm - Krusty May 22, 06:44 5
  - Do you have a problem, though, with someone buying Empire State Building merch? Or did you have an issue with the old WTC merch? - Jim May 22, 06:50 2
    - I have no problem with the sale of gift items as long as they're reasonable to the place. My issue is two fold with the WTC. - Krusty May 22, 06:59
    - I will say, though, fuck anyone who wants to sell me a shirt for $175. -- nm - Jim May 22, 06:50
  - oh i get it, but, it isn't *quite* the same as selling "ground zero water bottles" or something equally gross. -- nm - San Andreas May 22, 06:48 1
    - Not exactly the same but close enough that it's wrong. I get selling some trinkets for people to take as a remembrance of their visit. - Krusty May 22, 06:53
It'll look great after you drip mustard from your $30 hot dog on it. -- nm - Der Frühlingshafterbaron May 22, 06:37 4
- Ha! -- nm - Krusty May 22, 06:44
- that guy sucks. and he's in a heap of trouble. -- nm - Diva May 22, 06:37 2
  - Yup. He was fired and the owner of the cart was hit with three tickets so far. He also posted a sign now saying hot dogs are $2.50. -- nm - Krusty May 22, 06:40 1
    - I saw his sorry arse on Today Show (Rossen Reports) this morning. Glad they nailed that guy. -- nm - Diva May 22, 06:47
you can't put a price tag on grief. -- nm - colin May 22, 06:33 1
- Apparently you can. It's $35 to start with and goes up if you want to take a piece of the grief home with you. -- (edited) - Krusty May 22, 06:40
Classy. -- nm - volnelk May 22, 06:20
