    Came across this site and seems like a real good resource so you don't get scammed thinking you are buying an authentic NFL jersey...

    LOL I like $30 dollars better then $300. Especially when you have to "look close" at the "Tag" to see the difference

    In my experience, most of the $30.00 jerseys are obviously fake and noticeable without looking at the tags.

    most but not all ward. i bought a celek reto replica knock-off in the parking lot of week one and the only way you ccan tell is the font used on the tag which is closer together than the authentics.

    $30.

    but you do have to laugh at the guys walking around in jets green cunningham and reggie white jersies.

    Yeah I don't think I had any illusions about my jerseys but heck I do own more fakes than I thought - pretty much everyone I have that was bought online so that's like 15 of em.

    I'm okay with fakes at that price difference. Still feels like quality when you're wearing it.

    That's sweet, I just don't get too into the event patches, and that has a pretty big one. Cool otherwise imo

    A lot of this stuff comes down to snobbery. If people spend $300 on jerseys then more fool them to be honest.

    I've always thought it was foolish of people to buy authentic jerseys rather than replicas. Replicas normally last long in my experience, and I care more about what the jersey represents than the cash spent on it.

    There are deals to be had on the real deal...just have to find them.

    i get authentic knock offs for less than replicas can bought for in the stores.

    all jersies can last a long time. the issue is too many people toss them into a big load of wash and then dry them. this is especially true for authentics.

    if you're not going to get them dry cleaned they need to go into a gentle cycle (inside out) and then line dried.
