JÂy RÛßeÒ Posted January 12, 2018 Share Posted January 12, 2018 I know locally there's a guy on Facebook Marketplace who is selling knock-off jerseys for $45. Sounds like he gets them for $20/per and marks them up, but they're still semi-cheap and he takes cash. https://www.facebook.com/marketplace/item/133173960688174 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I tried to purchase a not standard Bills Jersey in Color Rush and I ended up at this site http://www.nfljerseyshop.football/ 3 weeks after I placed my order noting was delivered and then mysterious charges appeared on my credit card. My bank said that the NFLJERSEY ONLINE's 3rd party billing agents are not too legit. He seemed aware of this issue. that is all Back to your regularly scheduled shop talk They have an NHL version too. I was tempted by unbelievably inexpensive prices. Sounds like a good thing I didn't bite. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Saxum Posted January 13, 2018 Share Posted January 13, 2018 Many of the jerseys are ones which are supposed to be destroyed because they were rejected. My wife used to be a QA for companies in China and they would be constantly selling the rejects in Hong Kong Mong Kok district. One year I saw a jersey for a Buffalo Bill there and I looked at it carefully. Besides spelling name as "Wiliams" the number fonts were wrong and they numbers used different fonts (both wrong).

A collection interest is fountain pens and every week someone joins the community forum asking if a website offering MontBlanc Limited Edition pens for $10 is legit. SOmetimes they have already given their credit card and other private info before being told the market is superloaded with knowledgeable purchasers over sellers and that pens going for $1,000 to $15,000 are not out there for $10.

apuszczalowski Posted January 16, 2018 Share Posted January 16, 2018 It's a crap shoot with those places, sometimes you get one that is great, other times you get ones that look like a 5 year old made it (5 year old american kid, cause theres a good chanve the ones overseas were made by one of their own 5 year olds..). Also these are usually the same ones you would find being sold by sellers on eBay too. I bought a Hasek Czech Republic jersey from one and it was pretty good. Had a few others that I wouldn't want to wear. Bought a Jays Tulowitzki one that the lettering is off on the back. I used to work with someone who had bought a bunch a couple times and had good results except for an Andrew Luck jersey that he said was pretty bad. I ordered a Sabres jersey a few Years ago that would let me put whatever name and number on the back of it so I was going with my own to wear when I played hockey (that year I was playing for a team named the Sabres). It was taking a while and I saw a weird charge on my credit card one day. Called the CC company and asked about it and they said it was a travel agency in Korea I believe. I told them that must have been fraud and they asked if I was or had traveled there. I told them the only time i ever traveled was earlier that year to Vegas and Arizona. So they canceled the charge. A few days later in my spam email folder i had an email asking in broken english why i canceled the charge and saw it was for the jersey. I never responded and a little while later I got a Jersey in the mail that was Really BAD. It was even bad for a knockoff. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll have to see it when I get home for the eye test. I did say not too bad I cancelled the payment ... so .... something for nothing When the wife says I want a red jersey ...... she got a red one No one in Virginia will notice the difference Edited January 16, 2018 by ShadyBillsFan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eball Posted January 16, 2018 Share Posted January 16, 2018 @ShadyBillsFan and the Bills logo is angled down also. Just a really bad imitation -- but I'm glad your wife doesn't care! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
