Use the internet to compare licensed vs. unlicensed sports merchandise. How to the products compare in terms of quality, selection, price and availability? Would you purchase unlicensed sports merchandise for your favorite team? Explain why.
Parameter | Licensed Merchandise | Un-Licensed Merchandise |
Price | High, need to pay a royalty for use of license | Low, no such royalty associated |
Quality | High, Strict quality control | Low |
Selection | Low, Selected high-selling merchandise is kept | High, all sorts of merchandise are available |
Availability | Low, Available through select websites | High, comparatively available easily all over the internet |
- I would purchase licensed sports merchandise for my favorite team. The "official" team merchandise may be the higher price but the royalty goes to my favorite team. This would be my way to contribute to my favorite team. Further, quality of the product is much better.
