  1. Can you explain why I spent about $300 CAD on a Toronto Maple Leafs jersey. Other than stating the fact that I am an idiot that is relentlessly supporting my team

  2. This is ridiculous, using this logic then almost any other shirt bought from a retailer should have it's price inflated at leats like 8 times from the oruginal fabrication price. And it isn't no secret that not all a T-shirts sold from a retailer cost 80+$

  3. Okay, question, I know NOTHING about a VPN. I have no idea what it means or is or does. However, it SOUNDS like you can trick your device into thinking you're in another country? Is that correct? Can you explain this to me? If that's true and you can then watch matches on sites that don't broadcast in the US, that would be excellent! This year is the first year I've FINALLY gained access to club football in Europe. I guess the Premier League has been on for a while in the US which I did not know, but I am able to watch the 4 biggest leagues now, but there is more I'd like to watch. Please fill me in on this VPN thing if you could please.

  4. I can tell you straight up why. These companies are greedy assholes. They don't make enough billions of dollars each year ago they fuck over the people who buy their products, keep them in business and who made them a success to begin with. That's the reason in one word, greed. Also, money isn't worth as much as it used to be. 10 bucks in 1990 would have been worth 23 bucks and change in today's money.

    Edit: So after watching the video, I have to say you are right, another BIG reason they are so expensive is because people are willing to pay that much. That's a BIG part of it. I get mine from a site online, they have most clubs, FV and PV, any patches you want on the sleeves and any name and number you want, all for $50, $55 at most for a long sleeve. They may not be "real" but there is absolutely no difference whatsoever in the quality and details. So much so that it has to be the same company making them for Adidas and Nike and just selling them for cheap just to bring in more money, plus a lot of the overhead is cut out because there is no shipping and I don't think there is any tax either. People buy jerseys from the last few years to the last 10-20 years for HUNDREDS of dollars! I've seen a regular ass PV jersey be sold for 500 dollars. It's not signed, wasn't worn by the player or anything and there are others of the exact same, same name, same patches and so on for hundreds less. People are dumb. I want a Madrid jersey from a few years ago and I can't find one in my size for less than 200 bucks. Most are like $350 – $400! If people stopped buying that shit from ebay and so on, people would drip the price some. I don't know the dollar to Euro conversion, but online, Adidas sells fan versions for about $140 and PV for about $180. It's still insane to me.

    You have a good point though. Everyone wants a cut, but I attribute that to greed as well. Even with Adidas being stuck with most of the Germany shirts though, they still made out very well. If not, they wouldn't keep making jerseys. Usually with corporations, if it's not profitable enough, they won't do it or will quit producing whatever they were attempting to make and market. This is a great video though. I liked it a lot.

  5. The word authentic is just a myth actually the jerseys are created and are fake adidas puma nike these companies dont create retro jerseys just look at these fake Jersey code and enter it on Google completely different products arrive

  6. Recently I shipped a Manchester United kit from England to India, I paid around 45% in customs duty alone which is outrageous considering I paid around 150 Canadian dollars which brought over 200$ in total for the so-called authentic jersey. SMH.
