benbillsfan Posted May 26, 2011 Share Posted May 26, 2011 The Chinese jerseys are by far the way to go in my opinion. You get them for $25 and they are far higher quality than the replicas that the NFL asks $80 for. I own about 20 of them, and they have always lasted longer and stayed in better shape than any of the NFL Replica jerseys ive ever purchased this is excatly what is wrong with this country...were even going overseas to get our bills jerseys...im all for saving a buck or two...but jesus lets keep it in the states...not a sweat shop...i guarantee i can spot a chinamans auth jersey from a mile away compared to the original....by the way dont dry in the dryer after washing let air dry and jersey..any jersey will last 3 times longer...

BobChalmers Posted May 26, 2011 Share Posted May 26, 2011 Authentic jerseys don't have silkscreened numbers. I don't have an authentic one myself but I've seen them in person, and it looks like those have pretty nice sewn-on cloth numbers. True - but owning a couple of both, I can tell you the "authentic" jerseys are also seriously uncomfortable. They are just too thick. I really prefer my replicas to my authentics. this is excatly what is wrong with this country...were even going overseas to get our bills jerseys...im all for saving a buck or two...but jesus lets keep it in the states...not a sweat shop...i guarantee i can spot a chinamans auth jersey from a mile away compared to the original....by the way dont dry in the dryer after washing let air dry and jersey..any jersey will last 3 times longer... They are both made in China. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No way you spot one of the china knockoffs unless its one of the horribly bad ones (which you can tell from the picture on the website). Plus, $30 for a stitched jersey is much better than the $200 that the NFL charges for the exact same thing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PromoTheRobot Posted May 26, 2011 Author Share Posted May 26, 2011 The email I got from the Bills made it sound like you had to go out to the stadium store to buy them. You can order online? Yes. Just go to the Bills Store online. But right now only select player jerseys are marked down. PTR Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jerry Christ Posted May 26, 2011 Share Posted May 26, 2011 . They are both made in China. Yep, the ones from NFL shop and from the china sites...........both made in china....and no you can't tell the difference by just looking at them. I just sold a few I had because the guys left the team.......beautiful jerseys, just apparently the wrong guys. No way you spot one of the china knockoffs unless its one of the horribly bad ones (which you can tell from the picture on the website).

I just sold a few I had because the guys left the team.......beautiful jerseys, just apparently the wrong guys. most def agree Chinese jerseys are perfectly fine, no difference at all in them. My last order I also got the brand new 3rd jersey from the Sabres, those go for $200 bucks or more, and this was only $36. Got a brand new Blue Jays jersey too, it was perfect, was only $18. My Jim Kelly jersey is of great quality, and it was $16. Great for Christmas shopping too! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
muffmonster Posted May 26, 2011 Share Posted May 26, 2011 I have four Bills Jerseys and two sabres from china. All of them are great quality, and there is nobody who could tell the difference. I am sure I'll be ordering a new one this year with the new jersey designs coming out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They are not as nice as the Authentics obviously but they are way better then the replicas that the bills offer. I think it is crazy to pay $300 for an authentic for a guy that is probably only going to be on the team for 4-5 years at best. If your going to buy an authentic your better off going with one of the old timers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
robertpaul49 Posted May 26, 2011 Share Posted May 26, 2011 One interesting thing is that the store doesn't think Posluszny will be back. For the Royal Blue throwbacks, Posluszny is priced $20 while McGee and Evans are priced $48. What does the store know? Mabye that if the Bills wanted Posluszny they would have signed him earlier, hmmm. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You get them for $25 and they are far higher quality than the replicas that the NFL asks $80 for. I own about 20 of them, and they have always lasted longer and stayed in better shape than any of the NFL Replica jerseys ive ever purchased I get like 4 or 5 every season. You really cant go wrong. You get 4 or 5 different players in all different colors, and styles for the $100 or so that you'd spend on one piece of garbage replica. When my $100 starts going toward a decent on-field product then I will start purchasing the official NFL jerseys Where are you wearing these things if you're buying 4 or 5 a year and are worried about them not lasting very long?

BuffaloBillsSD Posted May 26, 2011 Share Posted May 26, 2011 China jerseys are the way to go, my friends and I have ordered close to 50 in the last few years, and they have all been great. Last time I paid $25 for a Thurman Thomas SB XXV jersey, no way anyone can tell it is a knockoff. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
