Anyone ever ordered from one of these type of sites ? Received one as a gift and it was the shirt attached, well happy with it. Would love to see what others have received.

Could always make two mirror shirts by cutting it, and a charlton one in half and sewing them together cut and shut.0

You can always request that. When I got mine there was a box for any requests and I wrote that I didn't want any British teams. Got sent a nice Sevilla shirtElthamaddick said:My boys birthday next Tuesday and we’ve ordered him one.

Seems a very clever way to get rid of cheap nylon shirts at a good mark up from teams no one has heard of. There is no intrinsic value to a football shirt other than to show allegiance to your football team, so someone goes to some obscure Bolivian team, buys all of their last year unsold stock for a few pesos and makes a killing selling them to us. But I suppose there are some nice colours, it's fun, and the novelty value is good in the boozer.4

There any many options, can choose more recent shirts too. It's a massively popular thing, lots of companies doing it. Easy birthday gift which is why I received mine, the boy loved buying it for me.Hal1x said:Seems a very clever way to get rid of cheap nylon shirts at a good mark up from teams no one has heard of.

So a very good business model.Hal1x said:Seems a very clever way to get rid of cheap nylon shirts at a good mark up from teams no one has heard of.

1. Original shirt manufacturer is paid for goods.
2. Bolivian team receive cash for distressed stock.
3. Consumer gets good quality product at appropriate price.
4. Business owner makes profit.
In reality I'm not sure step 2 actually exists, but even if it does, it's a good deal all round.

Never got the appeal of a shirt you have no affiliation with, but each to their own...4

Some people collect shirts, I have a Farense shirt because I've been to/through Faro many times and one of my colleagues is from Faro, so last time he went home he got me the shirt.Algarveaddick said:Never got the appeal of a shirt you have no affiliation with, but each to their own...0 -
Isn't that most Man u supporters ?Algarveaddick said:Never got the appeal of a shirt you have no affiliation with, but each to their own...2 -
I've collected them on and off since a kid, holidays, family etc, good for running in and cheaper than a dri fit tee. My boys got 7 different teams on the go atm. No different than a branded tee for me.Algarveaddick said:Never got the appeal of a shirt you have no affiliation with, but each to their own...1 - Sponsored links:

I can see it if its a shirt you have no hatred towards. Venice have nice shirts generally.1
