BeerGuyJordan Posted August 4, 2016 Share Posted August 4, 2016 I've never deliberately/knowingly bought a fake jersey, but because I try to get good deals through Ebay, I've come across a few (one guy didn't even know he was selling a fake). Fortunately, I've been able to get refunds on all but 2. I imagine I'm not the only person this has happened to. So what are some creative things you've done with fakes?

pianoknight Posted August 4, 2016 Share Posted August 4, 2016 This is a little Pintresty for CCSLC, but I use old shirts as work shirts when doing yard work, etc. I guess you could mow the lawn in one. Or wear it while you're changing oil or staining wood or something messy. 5th in NAT. TITLES | 2nd in CONF.

If the price was $75 or more or the jersey is a blatant knock-off, I'll return it. If the price was less than $75 and the jersey appears to be reasonably authentic, I'll probably keep it and use it as a pick-up game jersey.

Milkman14 Posted August 5, 2016 Share Posted August 5, 2016 I actually dealt black jack at a small bar that required its employees to wear jerseys as employee uniforms during football season on game days. Well leaning against those tables can get a jersey worn and dirty over time. In my younger years I had purchased what I thought was an awesome deal on a jersey and it was later explained to me what I had actually purchased . So for this job I did dust off that poorly stitched, inaccurate fabric and font Jared Allen jersey and just let it slowly get worn out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
