They forgot the /s, their customers won’t get the joke.

Way to communicate contempt for your customers. If you’re in the business of selling decorative replicas of cartoon swords, you need to be in on the kayfabe. Nobody is expecting to take one of these to a real swordfight. What they are expecting, however, is to have a cool prop to show their friends, and it’s not unreasonable to expect the cool prop to feel like it’s not trying to fly across the yard if you swing it around.

If you don’t want people to touch the merchandise, the second sign is all you need.

True, though it would probably help if a significant amount of it wasn’t obscured behind said merchandise…

I’ve worked in retail. Nobody is reading that sign anyhow.

Not true. I for one can’t see a sign without wanting to read it out of pure curiosity of what it might say and I’m sure others feel the same lol.

Whether people reading it are all OBEYING the instructions is another matter, though 😁
