Maths is obviously not a strong point then? 1,500 (max) sold at £40 equals £400,000? If you say so.
Railwayend - just stick your old shirt on a flag pole - job done.
The problem I have is that replicas are cheaply made poop, sold at vastly inflated prices as they have the club crest on. If I were paying that much for an item of clothing I'd want it to be of a higher quality than is provided and not feel it necessary to replace it every 12 months.
Tell you what they could do - put the prices of ST's up £25 and give a free replica.

Not all the shirts are priced #40 he probabley made an allowance for child sizes, discounts etc.
Seriously though, I know what you mean about the quality. If we are paying £40 a chuck they should be of reasonable quality ( Although I they are ideal for going to the gym, and last years was pretty good quality). But I don't think one shirt a year is over the top. Look at chavball, they have a shirt for playing a team who's name begins with each letter of the alphabet. But at the end of the day, the club cant make us buy them.
