IMO, i have different observation, may be i'm not smart enough. Its sad that people in Malaysia have to buy expensive jerseys if they don't know its cheaper outside. I wonder how much profit margin for Nike and Adidas, etc, that is the key factor that put people off to buy an original jersey in our country's.

Imagine in UK, take factory operator as example, their minimum hourly pay 5 years back was roughly £5.2,  but their brand new jersey during that time only cost about £30, 6 hrs work and you can get an original jersey.

How about in Malaysia? How much a factory operator earn per day? RM 20? Do your maths to get an original shirt. Sorry to say, those big time manufacturer, retailer is the one who acting like vampire, what is the manufacturing cost of a piece of jersey? Why they move their factory to place like China, Thailand, etc but not UK, Germany, US, etc. Hopefully they earn small small profit enough since they are big enough, don't be too greedy, let people in Malaysia have chance to own original stuff within our budget.

Its shame that some people saying white but doing black, which is unethical. I wonder how much the retailer here earn for every one piece of jersey or NNs sold? My guess is nearly 100% since they are big enough, may be some of the senior here can give some idea smile.gif smile.gif

No matter what business you're in, the manufacturers will always have the highest profit, that's their business. They set up factories, hire workers, spend on advertisement, endorsement. All of this needs money.

Who cares how long someone in UK needs to work to afford an original jersey, we still end up paying the same price right?

What irks us jcs the most are the middle men that try to take full advantage of sale items and hike them up to gain profit. E.g. few many weeks ago Kitbag was having sale for the UCL 07/08 MU Champions Patch and the WCC patch for only 2-3 pounds. Some forummer here bought a load of them back here and sold for RM70. Calculate his profit margin if you still can't see it. This prevents and hinders genuine collectors who have been searching and waiting to get those patches. Instead of sharing information, they sapu everything and then sell at a higher price. With these kind of mentality and attitude, how do you encourage new collectors to venture into this hobby or even existing collectors to continue, who end up paying the inflated price? And we start blaming people for buying pirated stuff. This hobby doesn't have to expensive. Yes, there are some shirts which will be more expensive but all of the collectors also look for great deals that can be as cheap as RM 100 per jersey. That's why you can't blame some of the collectors here who have these info but are reluctant to share it publicly because they know it'll only end up being abused by some profit hunters, if you know what I mean.

I learned a lot from this forum & also my-fjc & as a result I'm a more knowledgeable buyer now & no longer be duped into buying something that is not its actual worth.
It's all about ethics...some are ethical but some are not. What's more sad are the ones who claims to be ethical in selling but indeed they are actually plain manipulators. In my experience when I started to buy authentic jerseys, I actually don't know what the acceptable market price of certain jerseys which caused me to buy a jersey which is 2-3 times higher than what it's supposed to be worth.
A question,what do we call people who purposely buys a certain so called 'rare' jersey at RM200 then sells it back right away for RM500? Are they considered as normal retail resellers? I may sound bitter because I was a victim of these unethical sellers. I sold a jersey to a certain forumer for RM150 & in the next week it was already up for sale for RM400! I sold it cheap to help genuine collectors complete their collection but then what happened? Ethical sellers make a bit of profit but unethical ones purposely manipulates people into buying an expensive item and then make two folds profit in the process.

I know a certain forummer who have done the same to me. We might be talking about the same person.

I just find it funny that there's only 1 guy in 1 corner, with the rest in the other corner.  Pretty much shows who's guilty eh?

And if any of you don't understand English or English not too good, maybe BM?  Sesiapa makan cili, dialah yang rasa pedas.  Hope that's clear.

Again, nuff said.

I just found out one funny thing that if someone had died, all the family members, friends, etc of the death said the arrested one must be the killer, but unfortunately, the evidence showed that the arrested is not the killer. How come those family members, friends could act like that, simple what, they are alliance. Evidence can't lied, the judge said to the family members and friends. Its so pity that someone has such logic by saying that if everyone of the family members, friends said the arrested is killer, he must be.

Actually what my point again is if the person misused the information, kindness of their trusted one to gain profit, its of course, unethical

But if the person put their own effort, take the risk to sell the items they got in the price comparable to MY stores, i don't think there is any problem.


Enough said, peace smile.gif

Dude, that's our point the whole time. Don't have to give us mamak, 7-11 and other stories all to justify what you're doing now.

Blue UCL shirt was on promo for basically almost the whole of last season since it was a one season jersey. At one point, it reached to around just 15 pounds for the whole set. Besides, I seriously doubt that he got it from ALI.

Carling Cup Final?? On offer in UD up to last month if I'm not mistaken. Was considering getting it but since Carling is a beer brand, I thought against it.

Moscow Final?? Well it was on offer on kitbag but I doubt that's the one he got. Anyways, it was being sold for around 40 pounds or so, not yet deducting VAT. Towards the end it was on clearance for 20 pounds if I'm not mistaken because I recall plenty of people here getting it.

Yup the Moscow final was sold at 20 pounds including VAT and only size XXXL was available. If anyone is selling this XXXL Moscow final shirt around, it should be from this promo. I'll leave it as that.

Please don't get world cup patches on ebay please, most probably they're fakes. But in any case, please post it here first for advice before buying.
