Wanted a Nick Chubb Browns retro jersey. $170 on the NFL team shot website. Went to a Chinese knockoff site, I could’ve bought 7 different jerseys for $170. The price difference is just insane. How can they justify pricing a jersey at $170? Do people actually buy it?

    They only sell for that price because they can get that price. People need to quit being dumb and spending all that money on cheap overpriced crap.

    If you think the cheap Chinese knock off will do the same job as the real thing then you may as well go for it.

    I mean if NFL GM thought a cheap Chinese knock off could do the same job as their starting RB they would.

    I have been a jersey-head for years and years. When the Titans announced that they were doing throwbacks over the summer I was really excited. Then my DH-22 arrived. The shield was crooked af. So I complained. So they sent me another one. Guess what? Yep. Shield crooked af. So the sent my $ back and I have two shitty jerseys.

    I really wanted a new Seahawks throwback this year. Went to my first game and checked them out in the pro shop. They looked so cheap for the price they were asking, fuck that. I really wanted a Witherspoon one, but ill have to look at a knockoff instead.

    it’s because it has a holographic emblem dawg, a duh. /s

    in all seriousness, $170 for a jersey, come the fuck on. Even on thanksgiving, I had to go through 30 minutes, just to find the fucking game I wanted to watch (49ers vs. Seahawks).

    and then after all that, even with an NFL+ subscription, I basically missed the entire 1st quarter because some advertiser didn’t know how to target a demographic
