Go further up and it's the big shopping center with the Great Wall and Five Guys in it. If you get to Rt. 29, you've gone too far. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I mean, the fringe, man! The mother in' fringe!Also, your collection is in need of a '95 Iowa banana peel jersey. But the M&M is quite the achievement in its own right.

The original was in twill and it was quite flimsy. I just wonder if they used real leather for the fringe ... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FiddySicks Posted February 11, 2008 Share Posted February 11, 2008 Ok, so this isn't exactly a "Thrift Store" Gem per se', but it should work.I picked this up from a street vendor here in Waikiki the other day for $125Now, the reason I call this a "Gem" is because, while it may be a bootleg, it's damn near impossible for most people to tell, and even pretty hard for most who really know their stuff. Plus, when the NFL shop is charging $330 for the same jersey, and the Pro Bowl "Official Merchandise" shops are charging $120 for a REPLICA Pro Bowl jersey (Thats screen printed replica, at least a $50 markup from last year ), I'll take what I can get.

totc Posted March 16, 2008 Author Share Posted March 16, 2008 Yesterday in a Value Village in Lanham, Md., I picked up a Buda Ball jersey from about the year 2002.The name isn't of any significance, but the style is.It's practically the last Houston Astros knockoff, made in the wake of the Nelly/Outkast video craze, that I didn't already own. I have several Bigland jerseys, a few NYC-212s, a couple of Majestic Hardwood Classics, one labeled a Throw Back Jersey, a Zoo York Astronomical Outfielder, a couple from Vokal, one from Target, and one from Trust.The color pattern is black, slate grey, powder blue, and a magenta/red blend. I had seen one of these in a store in Atlanta in October 2003, but they wanted $40 for it. Good things come to those who wait, I guess. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
