I'm super excited! I don't have them yet. Pictures will be a must. I'm most excited for the Dzeko. I'm putting in an offer for that pjanic metz jersey "non au racisme" cause the sale fell through. And the last one should be a Benzema from lyon in 06 if I can trade my Neymar third kit from Santos + some cash to the guy. Man, I worked at a gas station at 14 (I knew the owner), and worked until I got a job at some retail place at 16, then at 17 I got a job at an apartment complex that I worked there until I was 20.
i worked too. first for my dad's construction company, and then as an intern at a financial institution close to chicago. gotta build that cv and get that money boi. post pics when you get the jerseys.
hell ya. i remember all my friends going to parties and i was working the friday-saturday-sunday shifts at the apartment complex. now who's laughing! For sure I'll be happy to post pics. I might even sell the stuttgart replica if anyone is interested. It has europa league patches and shit in XL sizing. i'll cut you guys a deal if i decide to sell so you don't have to buy it from Stuttgart directly which is like 100+ euro with hero printing and w/o shipping A run down of what I've gotten -Dzeko (12-13 UCL city away) -Salihovic (08-09 Hoff home) -x2 Ibisevic (11-12 BuLi home /12-13 Europa replica home Stutt) -Pjanic (07-08 Metz home - deal went through real happy) -Marveux (09-10 Montpelier away) --- awaiting trade of a Neymar third kit Santos for an 06-07 Benz Lyon - really hoping this goes through good god im sick .
Ebay: Salihovic Ibisevic (guy has a shitload of a collection on his website and put this one up as an auction. the collection is insane. literally, every buli club, some amazing real madrid shirts too) Both sellers have incredible feedback and their own websites. Random searching and research: Dzeko Pjanic (french) Benz (french) Marveaux (french) The last 3 french ones came from search some French collectors on facebook/blogs [skyrock] in france. I believe ebay is a great tool if you want some match issue stuff. I don't rely on it 10000%, but if I find a nice shirt and I can verify somehow it was issued, the seller has ONLY 100% positive feedback with over 1000 units sold, it's an auction and not buy it now or w/e, it is not a bad call. For example: the Hoffenheim jersey has the Sporthifle badge with the match style Buli badge. The sides of the jersey have the type of venting and the wash instructions are printed on the inside of the jersey. Everything else checked out when viewing pictures from 2008-2009. So, I don't think Ebay is bad. Like I said, I'll avoid far east sellers out of stereotyping (whatever, call me what you want). It's just easy to get badges and iron them on. I do it all the time with my replicas with lextra style. And all in all, if it's too good to be true, it probably is. It's a gamble, but if you ever decide to look into match issue stuff, make sure that the jersey you buy from is from the country it is in. All my BuLi's come from Germany.. Ligue 1: France.. etc . . Last but not least, I feel that it's ok (maybe some other collectors may disagree), but with older shirts with full sponsors, it's ok to be a little more laid back. It's incredibly hard to find all the full sponsors and iron them on in the same areas, all while turning the jersey inside out and making it bleed through properly, from like..05-06-07-08. Even then, the full sponsor of today (think PSG with Winamax poker on the back will run you a cool 75-100 bucks for a full sponsor in the proper printed form [it's real thin].
@anticule what do you think about this seller? http://myworld.ebay.com/vipvsnc1?_trksid=p2047675.l2559
I looked at his Ronaldo jersey which is obviously a replica from the climacool. Some things that bother me: -The BWIN doesn't line up like some others that I've seen. (Judging by the vertical lines on the jersey) -The number and name on the back has the blue color that looks like filler..It looks too blue imo from the pictures. With the number it should look like this: http://www.ebay.com/itm/OFFICIAL-MO...612?pt=US_Soccer_Fan_Shop&hash=item589653f0ec http://www.auctiva.com/hostedimages...17889771,617889746&formats=0,0,0,0,0&format=0 http://i.ebayimg.com/t/CRISTIANO-RO...==/$(KGrHqJ,!q4F!-hRHibwBQfscnLOcg~~60_12.JPG Here's a close up of the detail you should expect (note this is a match worn jersey but it follows the same form): http://mws-spain.com/gallery/uefa/L...Shirt_vs_FC_Barcelona_1st_Leg_1st_Half/14.jpg It just looks like its filled with blue instead of being broken up (which i've seen before) Last is the price. It's only October and we're fairly new into the season. The guy is listing the jersey at $40 at start with $70 buy it now. These jerseys with hero printing go for 100+ new. I doubt he is selling an authentic replica at 30-60$ cheaper. Actually, I firmly believe they are not authentic. Here in California we have a lot of Chinese replicas as well.
This is an authentic replica tag: In the one that guy has ..the threading goes through the 'i'. Like I mentioned, it's not a bad replica for $40. But that's the price people pay for Chinese knockoffs. It's not like he advertises it as an authentic either. Leaves open the possibility to think if it is or not? Just me.. but spend the extra cash and support your club in the proper way directly from an authorized distributor or the team.
Ohhh i see. Thanks for the help dude, you're an expert on this stuff! I'm gonna look into buying a Podolski Arsenal jersey or a Begovic GK jersey since those are rare to find and Begovic is one of my favorite players in the NT
@anticule you should find me a Napoli Hamsik jersey . Just got his haircut would look great for indoor lol
heres a good seller: these are 100% polyster jerseys. they are not player issue gara shirts. http://www.ebay.it/itm/HAMSIK-17-NAPOLI-MACRON-MAGLIA-3A-THIRD-11-12-PATCH-LEGA-CALCIO-TAGLIA-S?item=350633723091&cmd=ViewItem&_trksid=p5197.m7&_trkparms=algo=LVI&itu=UCI&otn=2&po=LVI&ps=63&clkid=3190237032667991850 love the cl kit from last year:
i usually get stuff from france/germany/bosnia. it's usually about 2 weeks max to california. sometimes it can come in a week. heres the black one from napoli http://www.sscnapoli.it/store//DisplayDetail.aspx?pid=546
Dude youre actually an expert in this field lol. Open up your own pijaca market with jerseys na otoci hahahahha
i would love to be a collector of jerseys in the future when i make money. it's not a profession that is highly profitable, nor would i want it for hte profit, but because i love footy and love collecting jerseys from cool teams. edit: if i was you and had soem money to burn, napoli is selling their cup jerseys with match details on them. its a super nice quality to have and you can buy the nameset for like $15-20 bucks and iron it on at a soccershop or @ home.
@anticule do you own any MLS jerseys? I was thinking of picking up a Seattle Sounders or Portland Timbers jersey.
that is actually next on my list! a sounders jersey or galaxy jersey would be awesome. i saw a henry red bulls one but i wasn't collecting MLS jerseys at the time. let me know what you get and post pics!
lol..Damn, i can imagine coming to anti's house and jerseys are hanging everywhere......Are you sure you're not missing some pussy and this is your way of trying to concentrate on something else.
haha nah. some people smoke weed and go out to drink and waste their money like that. i waste mine with jerseys : D

I'll post some pics to show you guys what the differences are between match worn/issue vs not. Lextra and Senscillia patches vs not.
Some of those have a pretty cool look..Nice collection for sure. I have a few but for a long time wanted to get a Newcastle one so might do that soon.
