These are slam-dunk sales.
Street vendors at the New York Knicks’ ticker-tape parade made a killing peddling bootleg merchandise – raking in thousands of dollars in just a few hours.
Follow The Post’s live updates from the Knicks Championship parade for the latest city chaos, celeb sightings and sports reaction.
Wan Ali, of Los Angeles, California, sold about 40 Knicks-themed bucket hats in just 45 minutes – at a jaw-dropping $100 to $150 a pop.
“We did great, passed $10,000 this morning,” Ali, 53, told The Post from his lower Manhattan outpost. “Better than New Years, because I didn’t freeze and have to pay for a high dollar hotel room.”
Parade attendee D. Spin, of Raleigh, North Carolina, said he got sticker shock at first, but then still opted to snag a hat.
“For $100, I wasn’t sure,” he said “but I was getting so many compliments on this hat [that] I had to come back and get some more stuff for folks back home.”
Yet another vendor was peddling copies of The Post’s Thursday cover — with the wood “KINGS OF THE CITY” — celebrating the championship ceremony for a cool $20.
