Buster Posted January 19, 2011 Share Posted January 19, 2011 Ever think of taking advantage of an "internet deal"?Here is their "quality"Most of these sites have pop-up "customer service" boxes where the sales rep admitted to me that the jerseys are counterfit... his words!Low quality China jerseys.Take a look at their hockey jerseys. They can't get a font type or size correct to save their lives.Their North Star Ns are way to big, same with the Whaler logos.Their Blackhawk 1s are in correct. ok, so , do you buy the stuff or not ? regardless of this banterThe materials used on letters number and patches don't seem to be the high quality material.You definately get what you pay for.From your link, the "low quality Chinese jersey" looks better than what the Colts wear on the field. Just saying...and laughing.You think so?To me the poor quality of the numbers and letters just scream "cheap knockoff to me". For example do you notice the "wavyness" in the numbers? It is not the stiff tackel twill that should be there. Its kind of the same material of a logo that would be on a Starter jacket.Absolutely, the stripes actually look like stripes as opposed to an equals sign on each shoulder and the numbers are all a suitable size.

Luigi Posted January 20, 2011 Share Posted January 20, 2011 Can anybody pick out any distinct differences between these Blake Griffin Jerseys and the official NBA swingmans? Why don't we compare? (Second graphic courtesy the NBA Store)Sorry I couldn't find a Griffin.Collar is off, and there's too much of a red stroke on the Los Angeles script. The LAC is also too low. (It's supposed to be at the tip of the collar)Yeah, i checked the nba website but i was under the impression the official nba website images aren't completely accurate (ironic ey).Just came to that conclusion when comparing a few older, pre revolution jerseys to how they look in real life. Also, the images on the nba website are very touched up to remain consistent with all the other jersey variants that have to coincide on the same webpage. Also, on the nba website you can't distinctly tell the difference between authentics and swingmans just from the image. I noticed the collar was different and assumed it was one of those minor distinguishes that swingman jerseys have compared to the authentics.Haha @ Rebel Sport, in their defense, I saw them charging *only" $70 for Lebron Cleveland jerseys. They're getting new Lebrons back in stock end of January. I asked about Blake Griffin but all the staff looked at me blankly. I told them he plays for the other team that plays in Los Angeles. Concluded Griffin jerseys weren't in stock when the new rev 30 swingmans arrived in Australia as they had never heard of Blake Griffin.was this there response: there's another team in los angeles?

nash61 Posted January 21, 2011 Share Posted January 21, 2011 There's a bunch of guys that showed up selling counterfeit crap at my college. If they show up again I'll report them. The thing is, how do you prove it?

DHester23 Posted January 21, 2011 Share Posted January 21, 2011 I have a couple of Chinese fakes that I bought during he summer, a red Jonathan Toews and a black Alexei Ramirez. The Ramirez one looks great, the Toews one is a little off, and it doesn't bother me. Combined they cost me like $75, about a third of what they would cost had I bought a real one.

I'm guessing the name font is wrong and they didn't get the 1 right and the Captian's C is incorrect too.

Maybe they have improved in the last year, but all the MLB fakes I have seen were awful. They are nearly belly shirts, they came down about 2 inches below the waist, the sleeves went down to the elbows and the logos were bubbly like the ones on Stater jackets.

rmackman Posted January 21, 2011 Share Posted January 21, 2011 I've, sort of, got an interesting twist to this. My father was a big Ray Nitschke fan as a kid. They have a few counterfeit Nitschke jerseys, and I'd like to get one for him. He's never cared about whether a jersey is authentic. In fact he only owns one jersey, an authentic Panthers hockey jersey that has the #1 and DAD on the back with a captain's "C" on the front. My brother and I gave it to him for Father's Day. Otherwise he'd never buy a jersey for himself.Seeing as he wouldn't care if it's authentic or not, should I get him the Chinese counterfeit? If he ever found out I spent $300 on an authentic jersey for him, he'd return it because that's how he is. He doesn't want people going out of their way for him. If he knows I only spent $30, he's much happier (weird, right?). Thoughts? Quote "Every morning in Africa, a gazelle wakes up. It knows it must run faster than the fastest lion or it will be eaten. Every morning in Africa, a lion wakes up. It knows it must outrun the slowest gazelle or it will starve. It doesn't matter whether you're a lion or a gazelle. When the sun comes up, you'd better be running." - Unknown | Check out my articles on jerseys at Bacon Sports Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
