Just wanted to clarify, it would be pretty big news if Logitech was leaving the computer peripheral business as they are a big player in it. I wonder what teams do with old shirts when they change sponsors. I'd imagine they stop ordering them when they know sponsorship's may come to an end, but they must have some old stock. Discounted 2012 EG jersey maybe?  Yes but that's what quality control is. If I got "unlucky" 5 out of 5 times I got a product from Razer, it's probably not just bad luck.
That's exactly my point. If you send one customer shit 4/4 times (in my case), then they will never give your brand another chance, and you've left them with not only a bad taste in their mouth, but now they won't recommend your products to anyone.

I'm more surprised that EG wasn't already sponsored by Razer but congrats anyways!
|
The thing with most of Razer's "sponsorships" from what I've seen is it's just them providing the teams with some gear and not actually money. Since this is described as a partnership I imagine it'll go a bit beyond that considering how invested EG is into promoting their partners' products.

EG and TL should just combine organizations at this pt.

But you are still one person and as we discussed before, it is still anecdotal evidence. It sucks for you, but people should not make it more than it is. I and all of my friends have had no problems with the Razor products we own. Also, peoples should take claims like "I bought 15 Razor products and they all broke within a month! One of them killed my cat....twice!" with a grain of salt(present company quoted in this post excluded). This is the internet folks, people tend to make shit up.

Nope. same thing, but just with money.

I don't think this is legit since Razer isn't listed as a sponsor on myeg.net (EG's website)

Wait, so a public defender who defends a criminal who he knows to be guilty is a hypocrite? He is paid to do the job and is doing so to the best of his ability? Or do people on the internet not really know what the word "Hypocrisy" really means?
