I have no issues with people buying authentic products online (especially since what Adidas offers us are limited)
The problem is majority of the fakes i see posers in, are the ones we have in stock anyway.
We'll I'm not sure that would really apply to many people on here, most here are genuine fans of the sport, hence why we're collecting pieces of cardboard with obscure players names on it. I'm sure lebron collectors on here buy authentic lebron jerseys, but for most of us collecting and supporting players outside the top ten players list, we have to look elsewhere for jerseys
Whilst I tend to agree that buying from the fly by night guy at the market with the rip offs isn't a good thing for the industry, I seriously cannot justify the price that is being charged by retail for them, or the fact that unless I am a Kobe/Lebron/Howard or Melo fan, I am left out in the cold. Sure I know it would be hard to please the masses (just look at every PC player on here) but if the masses are buying these jerseys, its not just your die hard fans who are the ones buying the rip offs, its the trendsters who have never seen a Howard missed free throw, yet where his Magic or Lakers jersey because it looks cool.
