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?
Here’s a good read

Excellent read. All the stuff I’ve ordered from the chargers shop is trash. Except the couple of Nike tees I’ve gotten for my kids.
Lmao such a great article. The best part is the author saying “check his early life on wikipedia” without saying it explicitly.
Um, I read the entire article, and at no point does it say to check Rubin’s early life on Wikipedia. Where did you get that from?
Wow, I thought my issues with fanatics was a personal thing. Now that I think of it, my custom jersey from a tailor I ordered when stationed in Korea has held up about 100 washes, when the team store crap makes it like 20 at most.
I bought a Herbert jersey that took 2 months to arrive, after the first wash the yellow in the heat pressed numbers bled into the white ruining it.
They offered me a 20% refund.
