Source?
I’m referring to at the seder table, not while you’re in line at Bingo or the zoo.

Understood. What’s the source for that.

While I don't think any of the poskim/mefarshim mention malchus in relation to the kittel, there are different minhagim/psakim pertaining to shana rishona and aveilus that reveal 2 potential reasons for wearing a kittel at the seder: to remember yom hamisa and temper the simcha of the seder, or to be like malachei hashares and add simcha. According to the first reason, it makes no sense to have a fancy kittel, while according to the second reason it depends.

I think you're confusing the name of the manufacturer or the retailer with what it represents.

Not sure why many people refer to bingo as kosher Costco. Bingo is not a wholesale club. It seems just like a large supermarket with some big ticket sale items.

Also why on earth do they place the main sale items right in the beginning of the store? Causes such congestion

Makes a line out the door, which looks good for business  ::)

Its a problem (probably a hazard too) when I can’t get in or out of the elevator.

IINM credit cards have it coded as a wholesale club, and after all, that's really what counts in these circles.
I've been waiting over 5 years with bated breath for someone to say that!

The owner considers it as a wholesale club.

I heard that after pesach he's getting in bikes, so someone asked him why bikes in a grocery, so he said Bingo isn't a supermarket...

In Israel it's more a wholesale club than anywhere else they have. Large stores, larger packages, fewer choices and good prices.  It's somewhere between a regular supermarket and a wholesale club in my opinion.

Correct at least on the discover card.

What's the price? Decent designs?

Because he holds like the second tzad.

ETA: Scratch that. He says explicitly that an aveil can wear a kittel on yom kippur. He adds that there's a minhag to make a silver or gold atara on a chosson's kittel because it will be worn on yom kippur and pesach - but he doesn't really explain how those 2 things fit together.

Not sure that it's taluy. I think it's because, regardless, it's worn on Yom tov

He doesn't say that very clearly. Besides, what's the lomdus? Why does worn on yom tov mean you should put a silver atara on it?

... an aveil can wear a kittel on yom kippur.

Why wouldn't he wear it? There is no Aveoulos on Shabbos, and YomTov ends Aveoulos.
