...OK.
Maybe I have a biased view on the matter, but I actually think this is ludicrous. Who on Earth green-lit the decision to sell old uniform on eBay?! It's a lunatic decision on two fronts...
Firstly, it makes a mockery of the brand. Where I work, we have strict guidelines surrounding the brand we use, what we can and can't do with it, to the extent that anything branded that we use, when it comes to the end of its life, is either stored (who knows when it could be needed again), or destroyed. We can't risk the brand being used in a way it wasn't intended. Whilst the 'Alton Towers' brand may not be as large or powerful brand as that that I work with, it still stands up in its own right, it has power across the UK tourism and entertainment sector, and at least a little sway abroad.
Secondly, and more importantly, this just seems a massive security risk. Again, any old branded uniform we don't want to store gets disposed of, but first destroyed, to prevent the possibility it could be obtained and abused by people. For example, take the Alton Towers Resort Transport uniform. Barely anyone outside this community will know that Alton Towers Transport isn't a thing anymore. So, I buy the shirt, rock up at the resort in a taxi or something, and claim I'm an official taxi operator, part of the Towers company, part of the brand. The rest I leave up to your imagination.
Frankly, this sale of uniform utterly baffles me.
