Puckguy14 Posted August 15, 2004 Share Posted August 15, 2004 Guys, I'm looking for Athens Olympic souvenirs, in particular, a lanyard. There are some going at $30 on eBay, and it ain't worth that much. Anyone know if there is an online store or is there someone in Athens that can pick one up for me?

Braden Posted August 15, 2004 Share Posted August 15, 2004 Hmmm I think Roots up here would have what you need. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tmorss9 Posted August 15, 2004 Share Posted August 15, 2004 Roots.com, go to the USA section .....which should not exist. that was classic.I love Roots. Much like myself, guys from Detroit who love Canada. On a serious note, try the store at NBColymipcs.com, or you could always do a search. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Survival79 Posted August 15, 2004 Share Posted August 15, 2004 Here is the US lanyard:2004 US Olympic Team LanyardAlso, here is a link to the 2004 Athens Catalogue (but I don't see a lanyard):2004 Athens CatalogueLooks like you'll have to go the eBay route if you want one of the regular Olympic Lanyards.

Puckguy14 Posted August 15, 2004 Author Share Posted August 15, 2004 I gotta say while Roots is in Canada, the apparel they put out in 2002 kicked butt for Canada and USA. But $35 for the USA beret? EH! Thanks guys.I still don't understand why the IOC didn't set up an online store. Very weird. BTW, the lanyards went for $39 on eBay as it just ended. BTW, this is what I'm looking for: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gosioux76 Posted August 15, 2004 Share Posted August 15, 2004 I'm not surprised by the prices here. I was in Greece early last month and was astounded by the prices. I figured I'd buy my nieces and nephews some Olympic t-shirts. Not, however, at 25 euros. I hunted around figuring I could find it cheaper or even buy a knock-off. No deal. The gov't made almost daily visits to eveyr shop that sold the gear and threatened heavy fines if they altered the prices or sold anything but authentic merchandise. Not that it's a bad thing. It just wan't very affordable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
