Hey guys,
I dunno about everyone else here, but wearing my teams football jersey is like wearing pants. It's something you have to do. My first football jersey ever was a Jerry Rice jersey. Raiders. Yeah, I know. Raiders. My dad bought it for me because it was on sale at walmart, and he had no idea what the Raiders were, or who Jerry Rice even was (He's from England and has no idea about any football). It was a cheap replica jersey that wore off when you washed it only a few times.
A few years later, I bought the jersey I really wanted. A red #31. Priest Holmes. Again, a replica. I wore it to school every week, and after a while it began to get ugly and I resorted to using it during pick up football games.
My sophomore year of high school Larry Johnson decided to explode into the National Football League. I had just got my first paycheck from working at Bobs Big Boy, and decided that I wanted a real jersey, one that would hold up. I went with the stitched route. I bought a red LJ jersey for a hundred and ten bucks at Chicks. That jersey is still in perfect condition today (even though when he was cut I sent it off to my cousin in England....but no big deal right?).
Since then, I only purchase stitched jerseys. Being a college student now, a hundred and ten bucks per jersey is pretty expensive right? Me and one of my friends decided to search online for the best deals. These are a few of the sites we came up with:
Jersey 101:

Good quality, looks good. Decent prices. They don't have too much of a selection unfortunately, but you get what you pay for.
Ebay:
I know that's an LJ one, but ebay fluctuates a lot with their jerseys. My friend bought a Reggie Bush and OJ Mayo jersey from a store that doesn't exist anymore, but both were great qualities. I check ebay once every few weeks just to see if anything pops up.
iOffer:

My personal favorite, I've bought about 6 jerseys from here in whole. My other jerseys are at my moms house, but I took 2 pictures of my recent buys from here.
I just bought a Jamaal Charles jersey, and a Brandon Flowers jersey, both red, last night for 80 bucks together. Great deal, and they look pretty good online. I'll update once I get them in person, but every other jersey I've bought has been great. I realize that this may upset people that are really into the economy since these goods are probably either really good looking knock offs, or stolen, or fallen off the back of a truck....but I'm sharing these for our loyal KC fans. I love going into San Diego once a year and seeing my section full of red. Everyone else is encouraged to share their own sites or methods or anything =)
