Discussion Fake Footy Jumpers

[Greater Gattsby]

North Melbourne used the 'RbK' in 2007 and in 2008 used the reebok logo in the box. In 2009 Norf ditched Reebok and went to Blades. In 2009 Fremantle were with reebok snd the present collar with 'Reebok' sublimated on the bib was introduced.

I saw the richmond one and thought misprint until I saw the wallabies thing. Also with the hawks one, the material doesn't look right.

With the Richmond one I thought possible sample or possibly the wrong lable stamped on to the collar as the wallabies are sponsored by kooga

Things wrong:

Richmond:

• Wallabies logo
• KooGa tag says "made for rugby"
• Bingle logo is fluro green
• Poor quality material (look inside the collar)
• AFL logo is tiny
• Tiger's eyes are red instead of brown
• KooGa logo is too small
• Collar and cuffs are too thick
• No label inside the collar

Hawthorn:

• The hawk is way off centre (one wing is touching the cuff, the other isn't)
• The AFL, Tasmania and Puma logo are all too small
• Extra stitching under the collar which almost forms a bib
• Puma logo is higher than it should be
• One side of the collar is longer than the other
• Cuffs and collar are too thick
• Cuffs are the wrong material
• The colour is off
• Poor quality material
• The gold and yellow stripes on the side are too thick, they start to low and they are uneven
• There are no small highlights on the hawk's feet (unlike the real jumper)
• No label inside the collar

Adelaide:

• The colour is off
• Cuffs and collar are too thick
• AFL, Camry and Reebok logo's are too small
• No label inside the collar
• RBK logo isn't used anymore
• The Toyota logo on the back is too small
• Wrong font used in the Camry logo

- Collar is far too pointy
- Logos and text is sublimated in inner part of the jumper. Adidas still uses tags on their jumpers.
- AFL and CGU logos are too small.
- No 'Premiers 2010' text under AFL lettering in logo
- No shadowing on Fly Emirates text.

Farkkk i just came on to post that.

To me it does not look right

 

[West_Coast_Eagles]

The thing is if one goes to
Effort to make them this close how many have these out there

 

[TRAWP]

Imagine the money these blokes would make if they made the rare Guernseys that people want... And make them half legit...

That would be horrible!! The real ones would drop so much in value.

 

[TRAWP]

Buy up the market sell for 4 times the price

Has anyone e-mailed the guy and quizzed him on the jumpers? I thought about doing it just to get a laugh when he tries to explain the discrepancies.

Do it and paste the response here.

​

​

I did, and his first response: ​

​

"this item is advertised as pictures shown, the item is not advertised as an authentic or genuine item, it's a large size Adidas collingwood jumper as that is the print on the jersey"​

​

I told him it was fake, he said " is not advertised as a genuine article So that loop hole in itself works against your argument"​

​

I then said that you cannot sell counterfeit goods in Australia, period, not at least when you are knowingly selling counterfeit goods, as he admitted to me.​

​

His response, "I have never admitted that the items are not genuine and I have never admitted that they are" - which is irrelevant given that they are still counterfeit goods.​

​

He then tried to give me heat about my grammar and spelling (auto correct can wreak havoc on iPhone) - despite some of his grammar gems:​

"I really do not have time for your mis use of grammar and words"​

"As I already mentioned its not advertised as an authentic item"​

I reported the item to eBay as a fake, seen as though people are actually bidding on it and most likely do not know, it is wrong that they be cheated out of their money. I recommend that others do the same, doesn't take long​

​

 

[lmach]

That really pissed me off reading that. I'm reporting the item now.

 

[Feraligatr]

Everything about the sellers responses annoyed me, especially when he started being grammar nazi when he clearly isn't very aware of how to use grammar himself. How do you report him?

Also, he's breaching copyright by selling fake AFL stuff.

 

[cammania]

This.

He may as well stop now. The pending lawsuit will wipe his profits in the first 8.35 seconds of owning a lawyer.

 

[West_Coast_Eagles]

I am in shock. Honestly i can not belive he admitted to being fake

 

[West_Coast_Eagles]

We all admit we want rate & hard to get jumpers. But if people start making them close enough to
This it will **** the whole footy jumper collectors.

 

[henness]

He didn't need to directly say they were fakes, by saying that it isn't advertised as a genuine article is still admitting that they are fakes.
The person is also selling fake Dr Dre headphones, which like this jumper, are purchased in Bali.

To report the person, go onto the item and report it. To then report the seller, go onto the sellers page and on the left hand side, there is a 'report page' link, use that

 

[Groupie_]

How the f did he get them made. Wht a knob

 

[West_Coast_Eagles]

Its bullshit. Lots of hours to get so close but not close enough. Could it be a aus jumper maker? Or defs bali or thailand?
