toonjersey sells authentic jersey for just 39bucks ?
No, they sell "authentic" jersey's for that much lol.
They are knock-offs. They are pretty good looking ones though.
No jersey will ever sell an authentic for that much. That is so far below the cost of the jersey that it is unheard of.
I work at a sports retail store, and we buy Authentics from Reebok for about $120 a jersey that retail from 180-280 depending on team( may not be exact, but it is something like that).
So if a retailer actually sold an Authentic for that price they would be taking a monumental hit on the actual price of the jersey. The lowest I've ever seen a real Authentic sell for was about cost, so 100-120 or so. And that was a player who no longer played on the team. It would be insane to sell it for any less. So basically what I'm saying is if you ever see a jersey advertised as an Authentic and it cost less than 150, you should go ahead and assume it is not real. Probably about 99% of the time, that is true.
