    I never advocate buying knock offs as it hurts the club, but seriously, if you're looking for pre-owned, have you tried eBay?

    I really, really hope you don't buy a knock off though (pet peeve).

    I would definitely try eBay. Also, the prior year's shirts go on sale when the new shirts come out. So keep an eye on that throughout the summer.

    My girlfriend got me a knock-off Lampard jersey on the streets of Italy for a few Euros. Never worn it because the quality is shit. I just have it hanging in my room.

    2011/12 away is currently £30 on the megastore and the third shirt is £25. Didn't look at the home as I already have it.

    I don't even buy the jerseys from the Adidas shops, I buy direct from the Chelsea Megastore website, at least I know some of my money goes to the club I support!

    Do not buy a Chinese fake. They look terrible and they look fake. I am equally disgusted and laugh when I see people wearing a knockoff anything.

    Just keep checking the web. Around Christmas I picked up all three of last years Chelsea shirts and a Cech for 8GBP each.

    The best deal I ever got was a home 2010-11 jersey with Drogba 11 and Gold PL patches for $57 during the summer of 2010. Kitbag! I think they had free printing and badges and some sort of discount on the jersey. I think I paid $10 for shipping, but $67 wasn't bad at all.

    The new jersey looks smart.

    he said he bought the previous season's jersey. on sale during christmas. 8 pounds is certainly possible.

    Absolutely. I hate shirts changing every year but the upside is that by Jan every year the previous years kits are drastically reduced because retailers know in a few months all the current shirts will be out of date already.

    I never understand people paying $100+ now for next year's shirt. Wait a year and you'll get it for nothing.

    That's if they still have your size in stock, but it's certainly worthwhile to wait till about spring if you wear sizes M and up.

    So, you're saying I'd be able to buy the 12-13 shirts at say, this time next year or early in 2013, for a really cheap price, with all authentic numbering and lettering and patches in size small or medium? No chance in hell. I can't believe that for a second. Even if I do find them in small or medium they'd still be AT LEAST $70-$80.

    Believe what you want. I've been around a lot longer then you and have a massive (300+) jersey collection. I know what I am talking about. This time next year you can get the CURRENT shirt cheap. Big retailers need to get rid of their stock.

    dude. all he said was that he got the previous season's shirts and a cech for cheap.

    you're making the assumption that it was with authentic name/number, patches, and in small sizes.

    i can believe he got a cech for that cheap though. how many people buy gk jerseys anyways?

    and i've bought prior season's kits with authentic name/number (i don't do patches) in medium for $40-50ish.

    Hmm, so can you possibly help me find last season's third shirt (the macaw green one) in small? I don't know. I'm just very skeptical and what you're saying sounds too good to be true lol.
