GO2HELL Posted March 30, 2011 Share Posted March 30, 2011 Bulldogs Marlies game today. In the two sections directly below me in the lower bowl, I spotted 3 fake Phaneufs, a fake Kadri, a fake Gilmour, a fake Sundin and a fake Kovalev.I see no less than 250+ fakes at Canucks games. I don't even need to be a jersey buff to know they're fake. It's pathetic how obvious they are. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They also beat a team comprised of Godzilla, the ghost of Abraham Lincoln, 2 Power Rangers and Betty White. Oh, and they played in the middle of Iraq on a military base. In the sand. With no ice. Santa gave them special sand-skates that allowed them to play in shorts and t-shirts in 115 degree weather. Jesus, Zeus and Buddha watched from the sidelines and ate cotton candy.

ARTnSocal Posted April 3, 2011 Share Posted April 3, 2011 These websites that sell them, click on 'contact us' ... if there's no mailing address or phone number listed, 99% of the time they're located in China.All they give you is an email address for contact and customer service ... Sometimes when they reply, some of the fonts are Mandarin and Cantonese letters. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bigbean24 Posted April 17, 2011 Share Posted April 17, 2011 This is kinda related but dont you hate seeing those jerseys that are from wal mart or taget and even stores like jc penny and sears. The football ones are screen printed and dont even have the collar NFL thing.

The football ones are screen printed and dont even have the collar NFL thing.No, it's not "kinda" related at all, considering those are officially licensed products. If you only have $40 to spend on a jersey, that's what you're entitled to - not an illegally reproduced knock off of a $200 jersey.Though I'd argue that if you only have $40 to spend, you have other priorities besides buying shoddy-looking sports jerseys.

Waleslax Posted April 17, 2011 Share Posted April 17, 2011 I was at Hawk Quarters in Chicago today and, no kidding, a guy walks in in the worst knock of and asks "hey, take a look at this, how much do you think this is worth?" and without missing a beat the girl behind the counter goes "nothing, that is a piece of garbage knock off. Needless to say, the dude goes absolutely ballistic because he is convinced that he's gotten the best deal on Earth when in fact what he got was, well, junk.

Or if youre older,you possess no wisdom and worry about really stupid crap. I have a couple knock offs and they are fine. The numbers are a tad big but its obvious what team is being represented and they are better quality than over priced pseudo replicas sold in America.Sure its nice to have what is considered the real thing but paying 300 for a football jersey is pretty stupid....I do hope to get one eventually, but for now knock offs are fine.
