Haven't had a chance to go on and post new pickups. Got a couple new ones for the regular season after unloading quite a few NFL jerseys. Got my first Nike Elite jersey, a Raiders white McFadden that I had picked up for $50 on ebay. After getting it I definitely don't like the boxiness of the fit but imo it actually looks pretty clean when its on. Definitely glad I did not spend full retail on it as imo I would rather have an older Reebok then the Nike.
Also picked up a Reebok Bo Jackson from Fullmoonjerseys on ebay. I am well aware that the font on the numbering is incorrect however given how Reebok was all over the place on the font for Raiders jerseys on retail authentics it doesn't bother me and imo its closer to the actual onfield jerseys then later run Reeboks were. Other then the font the quality of the numbering and lettering is excellent stitching is on par with my helmet tag Raiders jersey and the nameplate is the first that I have gotten that was fully glued and then sewn on.
Also not new jerseys but ended up switching out the nameplates on two jerseys. The Ray Guy started out as a last year Reebok Campbell and the Jaeger was a Randy Moss I picked up for $7. Got the nameplate materials from another Randy Moss jersey that I got cheap as well and cut up. Since the Campbell had black dazzle twill I ended up cutting up a replica jersey that had the name and numbering washed off for the last name lettering.
