I'll have to take a pic sometime... a few interesting kits will be found, although there are one or two I've been looking to get.
I have the shirt from 1991 when we won the Cup Winners Cup. Ugly though. Have a big video/dvd collection. Every season review since 92/93.
Yeah all real, when you buy them over the course of 14-15 years it doesn't seem as expensive. But they are all real, i have some Code7's and most with names/patches are Lextra not the cheap iron on stuff. I recently had an offer of $4,000 for all of it, but i'm not selling them, i wear em too often and its the 1 thing i collect.
Yeah - I took a look in my closet, and when you see them altogether and think about how much you've spent, it is a little sobering. But ******** it, I never buy things when I can't afford it, so if I have a spare 70 and want a kit, I'll get it. I'll put mine up when I get back from work.
I worked in a soccer shop for like 3 years, so that helped, i also worked for kappa and tons of freebies and kappa clothing/jerseys i sold to fund my current kit collection... i was buying 1 a year through the 90's..til about 04..then i just started buying em when they came out, regardless of how many came out that year, and then started filling in the cracks of the ones i missed, expensive hobby, but i like em, so its just what i do..
Sort of an oxymoron...most of the kits never go below $50 US...the megastore has the blue kit for like $44 + s/h.... http://store.manutd.com/stores/manutd/products/kit_selector.aspx?pid=43545 [SIZE=+1]UK£ 30.42 = 44.677854 U.S. dollars[/SIZE] thats the one united price(free membership)....shipped to the US...hope that helps.
Thanks a lot man, you just saved me $50! repped Just bought my first jersey in years, thought I'd pay my respects and snag a good ol' Tevez 32 ps- do all clubs/associations have discounts like this on their websites? I really want to pick up a Spain jersey, but I'm not trying to throw $100.
I'm pretty sure that blue kit is only gonna be around for 1 year...just for the 40 years tribute....so they usually always go on sale after the first of the year, always a kid time to get kits, and the summer when new kits are released, but you might not be able to get one at that point, its a gamble.
Damn, just saw those prices...that's nice! Guess it doesn't hurt the the pound is weaker than a small child, either
Prices just got better on the blue kit, like $37 or $38 shipped.... http://store.manutd.com/stores/manutd/products/kit_selector.aspx?pid=43545
You can't add that black badge, it has to be purchased by going to KITS -> European Kits...and that one is not on sale.
Just checked and it seems now that the CL kit is on sale as well and even cheaper than the regular 3rd kit after you add printing. $65 - regular 3rd kit w/ printing (no badge) $57 - CL 3rd kit w/ printing w/ CL black badge
Got a blue Giggs longsleeves with Champions League patch...but instead of UCL printing I got Premier League. Still got a deal though, $50 + shipping.
