Having worked here for as long as we have, our eyes are a little sharper when it comes to spotting promotional products in our travels.

But third-party apparel sellers are still causing Amazon some headaches, especially as counterfeit products slip through the cracks. This is something we’ve seen at similarly…
Read MoreWill Smith is one of those guys who seems to have transcended humanity and become a cultural institution.

Forbes recently revealed the top 10 most valuable college apparel deals, and UCLA is at the top of the list with its lucrative Under Armour apparel contract.
