My College game worn items

Shipping to the UK shouldn't be more than $30 --perhaps less -- if by weight. When I've used flat rate packaging, it's $40, but I don't charge the winning bidder that much, even, just because it's ridiculous. The best I can say, is put your friend in touch with the seller, and see if he can give an estimated shipping cost?

If I was selling it, I'd offer shipping for no charge through here...Suffice to say, I'm not the seller.

Well, this one's different. It's not a football jersey, but it is game worn...gonna be game worn, anyway. MY PERSONAL, issued to me for game use, by Penn State, soccer jerseys...Per PSU tradition, there are no names on any player's jersey. As the old saying goes:

"Black shoes -- Electric Blue shoes, basic blues, no names, all game."

Here's the ended ebay listing for my electric blues...Hope to have them by Friday, a our first match is Saturday.

They some BIG shoes! UK size 12, which is bid...lol

Good luck Eric!

Thanks, Sax...I wear a size 13 US. Big feetsies I have, lol.

Once you've worn it in game mate, you'll have to sign it and get a COA on it. Good luck in the game, let us know how you get on.

Thank you, BillsFan; like the new siggy. Sweeet!

We had a scrimmage today for Saturday's game, and coach had me playing back-to-front on defense, so I"m guessing that in NFL terms, that's kinda like a hybrid safety and linebacker...but more like defensive secondary.

I did pretty well for my first scrim in 16 years! I displayed some good speed and did pretty well at guarding the offense-man. It really helps too, playing with guys who are experienced who know what they're talking about and can bring me up pretty quickly.

Go Penn!! !!

We won our first match, 3-2 on Saturday; tomorrow (Tuesday) night we play again, against a more rival team. Hopefully we can take 'em out.

Well done Eric.

Eh, I didn't play; I was the bench-warmer, but I watched and learned; it's all good. I was there for moral support.

I did play tonight however, for the last 15 minutes of the game -- and my debut in an NCAA soccer match! We got our asses creamed 8-1, though. We were very disorganized tonight; I think it was a combination of the heat, a VERY short turnaround from Saturday, and still riding high off of that win. I heard people on the bus still gloating over Saturday's win, and you can't. On gameday, the last game has no bearing on the outcome of this one.

So we got our tails handed to us, and I think we all learned something from it.

OK So I dunno if I posted pics of the #39 jersey already, but if I did, it's not in the thread where it should end up... Here, lol.

I've just received my FIRST LSU game worn jersey, and it is the very difficult, almost impossible wide receiver's jersey with the # 1. To say the least, I am absolutely thrilled with my acquisition, and will soon have it hanging on my wall next to my Penn State jersey.

The first photo, is the front of the jersey, which you will also notice has the SEC conference badge, sewn-on Nike swoosh, and customized to the player's specifications, also includes the handwarmer pocket/sleeve built into the jersey. This jersey was worn by former LSU receiver Amp Hill, who later transferred to University of Central Florida. The No. 1 jersey was recently occupied by former LSU Tiger and current Carolina Panthers widout Brandon LaFell. Currently, No. 1 is in use by Tigers quarterback Barrett Bailey.

Amp Hill was one of the nation's premiere prep wide receivers in 2002 -- a unanimous All-America selection -- Ranked the No. 9 wide receiver by College Football News and ranked No. 15 by Tom Lemming of ESPN.com, member of SuperPrep Elite 50 and SuperPrep 288 All-American, as well as FSN South's Countdown to Signing Day "All-South" Second Team, Atlanta Journal-Constitution Super Southern 100, Jacksonville Times-Union Super 11 ... Named one of the top 100 prospects in Florida by the Orlando Sentinel . Hill was a player on the 2003 LSU National Championship team.

Sweet jersey Eric.

Thanks Simon!

I just acquired the one jersey I've been after for a couple of years now. I would say there are a few more numbers of PSU jerseys I would like to acquire in time -- those including 22, 1, 2, and 11. In the meantime, I got lucky once again, and rather than typing in Penn State game or worn jersey, I just typed in Penn State jersey, and acquired this gem for significantly -- a little more than 50% -- less than what one seller has the same jersey, only ISSUED, for on ebay ($349 is his "buy it now" price). I paid $163 with shipping (on Saturday morning) for mine and received it today (Tuesday afternoon from the West coast). I am particularly thrilled with it, because it's former Penn State QB Daryll Clark's jersey. Clark was my first PSU QB as a prospective Penn State student, so I feel a bit of a connection there. However, AS a Penn State student, Robert Bolden is MY QB (jersey # 1); consequently, I'm friends with him on Facebook, too. XD

Anyway, here's my newly acquired jersey of former Penn State QB Daryll Clark...

(PS: Please forgive a few of the shots -- I realize they're a little washed out. I'm playing with my camera now, as I'm taking an intro to photography class, so I took a shot with and without a flash. The pics without the flash are a little washed out).

I'll post pics of my wall once the "Host an Image" server is up and running again

Nice pickup!

Very cool, well done.

Display looks great. How does that work?

Wow! Very nice. A+

You really want to know? I don't like the method anymore than you will -- thumbtacks (for now). I'm looking at getting those Ultra displays, though. At any rate, I have two in the collar, and two by the sleeve of each jersey.

Hi guys! Long time no see! I'm home for the summer from school, and will return in early August. In the meantime, I've collected a few more college gamers. I will post pics as soon as I get my digital cam unpacked! I also have two more coming in hopefully next week!

Nice to have you back with us Eric, school going ok?

Sorry for the delay in response...Yes, my first year of college went well! All A's and B's, with the exception of one D, which I earned in Philosophy, subtitle Symbolic Logic. I worked my ass off in that class, and it was definitely a tougher course than I had anticipated.

Anyway, I finished my first year with a 3.1 GPA, and I plan on getting it back up to, and hopefully surpassing the 3.49 GPA I had to end the first semester in the fall!

As promised, I will be loading more pics of some of my recent acquisitions today.
