James78 Posted July 19, 2007 Share Posted July 19, 2007 I also took advantage of this I got the Kings Island monopoly game. I plan on getting a couple shirts if the sale is still going on next week. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Colonel_SoB_fan Posted July 19, 2007 Share Posted July 19, 2007 I actually think this is wrong of Cedar Fair to be selling Paramount stuff for 50-60% off. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I plan on getting a couple shirts if the sale is still going on next week. The Kings Isalnd game was on sale I didn't see that. I got it a year or two ago when it came out but maybe I will buy another one and keep it in the shrink wrap. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vortex Posted July 19, 2007 Share Posted July 19, 2007 In the old days of Kings Island all the stores used to have a big sale at the end of the year like Cedar Fair is doing now. That why the park has room for new items for next year. If its anything like where I work the park has already order things for 2008 season.

standbyme Posted July 19, 2007 Share Posted July 19, 2007 I also took advantage of this I got the Kings Island monopoly game. So how much is the sale price for the Monopoly games now? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JjAmSaOnN Posted July 19, 2007 Share Posted July 19, 2007 I actually think this is wrong of Cedar Fair to be selling Paramount stuff for 50-60% off. Actually it is not wrong. Maybe you are thinking ethically, but even then I don't really see how. When paramount sold the park, they sell everything in terms of the contract. Including naming rights for X number of years AND merchandise. Cedar Fair has every right to do what they want with it. It totally makes sense to sell at a discount, the merchandise it outdated with the OLD name, who would want it now at full price? In order to get it out of inventory the sell it at a price people are willing to pay. This clears it out so they can bring in new merchandise. What do you think they should do with it? Give it away? People are willing to pay for it now, perhaps when it gets to the last few things they might. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not to mention that the time frame during which Cedar Fair CAN sell items branded as Paramount Parks and related indicia may be about to expire soon. The merchandise being sold belongs to Cedar Fair. They can sell it at any price they can get for it. Whether or not to buy it is a choice for each shopper. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
James78 Posted July 20, 2007 Share Posted July 20, 2007 I got the game for 15 a couple of weeks ago. It was 19.99 as someone else said last year. When the sale hit it went back to it's old price of 29.99 and it was 50% off when I got it. I want to get a Son of Beast shirt this week. The ones that I found that I liked were down in the shop in Action Zone. I opened my game and so far I'm one for one on it. I may buy another one and keep it in the shrink wrap as well.
