OchentaYOcho88 Posted February 16, 2015 Share Posted February 16, 2015 Had a pretty good day at my local Value Village!I got this mid-90s Rangers Starter jersey in excellent condition for $10And I picked up this Diamondbacks alternate jersey also for $10!Both were in my size and both were in awesome shape. It's not very often that I find stuff worth buying there.Another strange thing that I found was an Algerian national soccer jersey with this on the back:My first thought was that this was a pretty cool and unique jersey but that the name definitely didn't sound Algerian to me. Sure enough, a google search told me that nobody by the name of "Weiberov" has ever played on Team Algeria. Not only that, when I search for the name "Weiberov" it only generates 62 results on google... compared to 7 million when I search my last name. Nobody on the Canada411 website has this last name, and there are no results on facebook when searching for this name. I have no idea why it's on the back of an Algerian jersey or how it ended up in a thrift store in northern BC. My theory is that somebody ordered this jersey with a customized name/number and somehow there was a typo that wound up on it and since customized merchandise cannot usually be returned that the person just decided to donate it. I may sound silly but I'm strangely intrigued by this mysterious name for some reason.Great snag on that Rangers jersey man! I'm always looking for those old Starter jerseys on eBay.

johnnysama Posted February 18, 2015 Author Share Posted February 18, 2015 ^ Nice one. He was good @ UW, but really hasn't amounted to much so far in the NFL.On another note, I already have that same Rangers jersey. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Orgo Posted February 19, 2015 Share Posted February 19, 2015 Had a pretty good day at my local Value Village!I got this mid-90s Rangers Starter jersey in excellent condition for $10Do the Starter jerseys have reinforced elbows and stitched logos or is the stitching just there for aesthetics? I don't have a Starter jersey yet Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
johnnysama Posted February 19, 2015 Author Share Posted February 19, 2015 ^ Yes, the graphics are stitched on and they have reinforced elbows. I can attest to this because I own quite a few of those jerseys myself. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Frylock Posted February 23, 2015 Share Posted February 23, 2015 No embedded pics, as I'm in phone, but yesterday I picked up this helmet from a HUGE, disheveled, messy and nasty liquidation sale. Because I'm not a fan of USC, I've put it up on the bay... At first, I presumed it was for the baseball team, but now I'm wondering if it was used by the women's softball team. Oh yeah, I only paid $4 for it!http://www.ebay.com/itm/SC-Trojans-Used-Worn-Batting-Helmet-/331487011355?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item4d2e2a621b Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheOldRoman Posted February 23, 2015 Share Posted February 23, 2015 Yesterday I found treasure at Goodwill. They had an authentic Colorado Rockies purple alternate jersey in my size. It was only $3! No player on the back. The wordmark is a bit wavy, but I'll try to iron it down with wax paper to flatten it.The jersey has the MLB logo on the back, but it's a Russell Athletic and not Majestic. I assume it's from 2000. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

72freebie Posted March 1, 2015 Share Posted March 1, 2015 Just found this absolute gem of a coat in a small sports shop for $40. It's a Jacksonville Jaguars unused logo coat and it just screams 90's. plus it fits me. I absolutely love it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
johnnysama Posted March 1, 2015 Author Share Posted March 1, 2015 Much to my surprise today, the Bellingham (WA) Ross had an El Paso Chihuahuas cap for $5! It was slightly larger than my normal size, but at $5, I wasn't going to pass it up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LA_Angels Posted March 4, 2015 Share Posted March 4, 2015 I always browse these threads and wonder how I never get lucky. There is nothing at my local Goodwill, and there never is.Same here...

Bathysphere Posted March 4, 2015 Share Posted March 4, 2015 Now, THIS is just... something else."Wreckin' Crew"I have seen before on eBay NFL merch from early-mid 90's that used Looney Tunes characters so that this exists isn't surprising, but finding it sure was. The combination of it's awesome dorkiness and lawsuit logo made this an insta-buy, though I'm debating whether to keep it in my collection or sell since I'm not huge on space currently.
