Best place to buy jumpers

[Stealth bomber]

Anyone have a recommendation on a good place to buy an AFL jumper? I've been looking online for awhile and pretty much everything's currently unavailable.

I went to Highpoint last week and found only two stores that sold em and they were both around $120 which seems rather excessive to me; I'm positive I've seen them for $60-70 before. It seems like that official AFL store has a ridiculous markup on everything.

I would settle for a replica in place of an authentic one, preferably long-sleeved.

I don't know, try Kmart or Target or something. There might be mark downs after xmas.

Buy them from your club, that way they keep the profits.
Actually SB, you support Essendon so buy a Roos jumper so WE keep the profits and the Bombers can stick their money up their arse.

Stealthy,

Go to the Bombershop at Windy Hill. They have the new jumpers with the new sponsers logo's as well.

Your best option would be the Essendon FC but if you want a replica you can also get them from K mart but you probably have to wait till late Feb/March thats when this seasons stock start appearing in stores.

Up here in QLD I have bought a couple from Amart all sports! For about $65.

Pretty had to get em during the off season though.

Stealth Bomber,

I would always buy merchandise through my club. Not that this works out any cheaper - in fact it's probably more expensive - but at least the profits go back to the club, in some small way helping them to survive.

OK go to the Essendon FC if you want to keep your money with the club, or Kmart coz I think they sell them cheaper. Depends which option you want.

Thanks for reminding me, I need a new one too.

Myer is also a good place if all else fails. Myer Sport in the city.

i think that the AFL store is a big rip off! i bought mine at Kmart for $80 and at the AFL store its like $100. ok the desing might be slightly different but who cares???
if i could afford it i would buy from the club only their jumpers are THE MOST expensive and i really can't afford it after i blew my budget on a membership.
good luck finding a jumper!

of course the AFL store is a big rip off but hey at least they have sexy players serving there! who knows u might even get Trent Croad in the dressing room helping u try on those footy boxer shorts hehe!

K-Mart->Spew no thank u on field stuff is the best if u r getting a new guernsey!
and besides why would u even pay for it if u wanted a K-mart one? five finger.....

Why on earth does the AFL store have Roo guernseys for like 150 when they r the old Nike ones when other stores have the new Russel Athletic ones for like a hundred bucks not even that maybe and Arden Street has the real guernseys straight off the players backs startin at 50 bucks? hmmmm!

Stealth, if you want CHEAP footy jumpers/memorabilia etc then check out some of the Salvo shops/Op shops in and around Niddrie/Essendon etc. Ive picked up some stuff there before that have proved to be absolute BARGINS. The salvos in Keilor rd is a good haunt of mine. Amazing what some people throw away!!

Basically mate, just shop around and see if you can get lucky.

Cheers.

 

[lioness]

I got mine at Myer Sport for $85, a long-sleeved one. That was a few years ago though.

No GST then, hey lioness.

 

[lioness]

Ooh yeah damn, forgot about the GST. GRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR. I wanted to buy my new one before the GST came in but I had NO money then. dammit. lol

 

[SpecialBruce]
