His prints have been ultra cool for a few years now however now every where you look you see Shag merchandise. Pins, stickers, photo albums, cards, lighters, etc. It just seems to be too much merchandising. I only buy Shag prints. It seems now that "everyone" is jumping on the Shag wagon, Shag is capitalizing on this. You notice that now, once a month, a new Shag print comes out? Come on. I love Shag as much as the next guy but I certainly can't afford to buy a new print every month along with all his other memorabilia. I like the old days when a Shag print was "affordable" enough to buy and not take half my mortgage payment to buy it. That's just my 2 cents but I'm still a Shag fan! :wink:
