I love Hot Topic, yes it is fairly expensive but how is buying a shirt for $15 different from people buying severley ripped jeans for $50? I remember back in the day when i wore ripped jeans people at school would antagonize me for being poor and wearing jeans that were ripped...now its the new fashion...


I choose to buy my clothes from FYE and Hot Topic and WalMart, so why should you care? You dont see me complaining about how all preppy people buy clothes from AE or Aeropastle or Ambercrombi and Fitch or whatever. You say we look like clones cause we were black or something...ok whatever.

But when you see someone dressed all in black with tight jeans and painted nails and black hair most people say "emo" or when they see someone dressed in all black with a spiked collar and chains on their pants they say "goth". Hows it different from the way preps dress?

My gripe with it involves it being a mainstream label, posing as an alt. store (its owned by the GAP), its over priced clothing and that none of the proceeds from their stores, actually benefit the bands they sell the merchandise for.


Not to sound rude at all but exactly how would you know this? O.o

Look it up, compared prices and simple economics, bands only ever gain from merch sales at gigs and their online store, everything else is handled by the record company and solely for their benefit.

I only buy things from Hot Topic that have been marked down significantly. And even then it's only like my Planet Terror shirt or the two posters that I bought for when I go to college to have something on the walls. And stuff.

Mostly I don't buy clothes. I wear the same s**t over and over again. But once I come into some money, I'm going out with my brother to put together a wardrobe for me. There will be thrift-store shopping! Woot!

well we dont have alot of alternative stores around me... so really its hot topic... or nothing =/

Lately I only buy something from there if it particularly catches my eye, I don't care if it's not "alternative" or if everyone's wearing it or if it's expensive, if I want it, I have no problem buying it.

Though, I prefer to buy things from Sex Pot Revenge. Their clothes are similarly priced but much more worth it since most of the more expensive items are hand-made.

Heh Hot Topic down where I live is fun.
The people who work the counter give me major discounts.
I once fot a $70 boots for 20 that way.
Plus it allows me to get my music fix.

Tis true in my area. I live in a small town in PA. And basically its Hot topic or Aeropostale.
Personally, I go to whatever store has the best prices. For band T shirts I go to Hot topic. Plus they have some cute things there when in the right season. I got my Halloween costume there. I got some nail polish there...hmmmm shoelaces are adorable from there. And their bags are amazing.
But let me say this to you:
I could care less what the label is. If it fits, is comfortable, cute, and afordable that suckers mine.
But I will also say this:
As I have got different friends over the years my wardrobe changes, this is very sad to me. I hate being the same person, and not an individual, so I try and shop EVERYWHERE now.

The only other semi-alternative place around me is Pac Sun
and everyone knows thats not to much alternative -_- sigh.

I didn't think hot topic was expensive when I went there.
But the lady gave me a discount because I was an awesome foreigner and she was hot for me wink

All the stores we have here that sell similar stuff are at least double that in price. Because it's all shipped from America. And apparently ships are expensive to use.
