Seen this on dafc.net, and it seems a bit to good to be true dry.gif

Anyone bought of here before?

Good website, cheap prices. But no scottish teams sad.gif sad.gif
Stu
The cost and time needed for delivery suggests the shirts are coming from Asia, and are therefore likely to be fake.

Exactly what i thought

I don't even think the Chelsea third top is out yet huh.gif

I saw some cheap replica shirts like that in greece on my holiday. The quality's not great.

This is unfortunately to good to be true. I realise that I could be accused of showing some bias here but buy these shirts at your peril.

Although the apparent initial quality may seem decent be prepared for them to show bad wear very soon. Numbers and sponsors are more than likely to fall off. These products will also be manufactured in sweat shops. The price they charge is massively below what any legal retailer charges and can only make these guys a profit if they employ slaves and use sub-standard materials. Their website continually disapears as the shirt manufacturers try and close it down and it offers no information as to where they are based and how they operate. 3 months ago it used to have a disclaimer hidden on one of the pages where in very small print it informed you that the shirts it sold were un-official. It also mentioned that the images used on the website were not of the actual products sold. Fakes through and through.

Now I can understand that a bargain is nice and very tempting but what I can't understand is why you would entrust your credit card to criminals in the far east.

Not recommended.

Spoken like a true football top retailer cool.gif
WOOHOO!!
Got the Italy away top from a similar website. The badge ruins it straight away as it's one of those cheap iron on ones. I've got the real Italy home top and there is a big difference.

And the first day a wore it got about a dozen catches on it. The material isn't the best.

They were selling the LA Galaxy top for about £15. A got the real one from JD Sports for £15!!
WOOHOO!!

I've seen an e-mail were they actually told someone they were fake, but made as close as possible to real tops. A got mine from their "clearance" section just to see how it was. Just be using for decorating know smile.gif

That site looks like they sell the shirts with the cheap iron on badges, which is not good. I would reccommend bestway4you , the shirts on there are exactly the same as the official ones, infact they are probably made in the same factory, the stuff about being made by slaves is alot of shite. I bought a barcelona away top, identical to the ones in JD, badges are sown on not ironed on so they are top quality, came with nike tags and everything. Cost about £8 but delivery is £6, so £14 in all. They also use paypal so your protected if anything goes wrong. They also have two other sites jomzajung and easyjung , probably run by the same people but they sometimes have new shirts on the other two. Might take a pic of my top later.
EDIT: Heres some pics as promised, be warned though they are quite big, first one came out kinda crap



Also I've washed it several times and the sponsor looks good as new. £14 compared to £45. I'll never buy an official shirt again cool.gif
WOOHOO!!
A think they put more work into the club tops than the international ones.

And the kids ones don't have the make on them like the nike tick or addidas sign.

Got the Liverpool home top for myself and the Chelsea black top. Both the tops are in excellent condition and the exact same as the one's in JJB.

Not a fault in any of them, took 2 weeks to come through and arrived on the lads 16th on friday there.

I bought a Milan shirt (with any name and number on the back, similar deal to what these mobs are offering) on ebay from a seller from Thailand for about 8 quid, and the quality was brilliant. I suspect it was a fake, but I'm not sure, it had the tags, official lettering etc, and 2 years later I still wear it at 5s!

To be honest, if it is a fake, then it's such a good fake that I can't tell the difference - and in that case you have to ask yourself if there really is any difference at all.

Have to agree, this Liverpool home top is quality, and i'll say the same for the lad's Chelsea one.

None of the links work any more!

Which is more unethical - buying a fake top or selling a genuine one with an inflated profit?


taz12345
They all work for me, maybe try doing a google search for them. Now all they need is the new scotland top ph34r.gif Well maybe I'll wait till the official one comes down in price, their havin a laugh if they think I'm paying £40 for one.
