If you were hoping to get your hands on some of the Raptors merchandise worn by the players in the NBA Championship Parade, you are out of luck unless you want to spend a couple of hundred dollars.
Real Sports Apparel was selling the limited edition OVO Raptors hats and shirts Friday morning, but the store has since sold out.
Some people began lining up at 2:30 a.m. and at one point, the line stretched all the way up to York Street onto Front Street.
The shirts have all the games played by the Raptors in the 2019 playoffs and both say “The Best in the World” with the trademark OVO owl in the middle. It’s believed the hats and t-shirts were selling for $58 each and purchasers were limited to three of each.
Some of those lucky enough to score some of the collaboration are looking to make some quick cash by reselling the shirts and hats online.
Several have already been posted on Kijiji with people asking upwards of $400 dollars for a hat and $350 for a shirt.
