yeah, they are impossible to find. JO Sports must have a deal with Holmes in place. they have a bunch of his jerseys from last year with 75th patch, but not the throwback. I've haven't seen any of the Throwbacks hit the market. Here is link to those Holmes jerseys.

Yes we have a deal with Holmes for his 2007 game used jerseys. They display nice use with the 75th anniv. patch. Comes with a letter from Holmes and josportsco. We attach our thermopatch indicating the game, date, etc. Have any questions let me know.

Steelers jerseys seem to be the hardest team in the NFL to get a jersey from. From what I have read, the team does not release their jerseys and has them stored away from the years past as well. I do have a couple of Steelers jerseys that I have bought a few years back (1997 Greg Lloyd Home and a 2000 Scott Shields Home), but they will cost you a decent amount as well. I have not seen many Steelers jerseys available in the time that I have been collecting, which has been since 2005.

WOW! Those prices are absolutely rediculous! I am sure glad none of my boys play for those teams, otherwise I'd be looking at a 2nd mortgage on my house.

Kicker for me isn't so much the jersey asking price (although some people forget the state of the economy these days), but the $300 surcharge for the signed ones when the signing fee charged through GTSM at two upcoming shows is $20!

Get an unsigned one and get it signed and save $280 minus postage.

I wonder also if price may be higher on some is because he may have had a big game or scored a td or something in that game. The pricing is high, but I bet if they were on NFL.com auctions it's about what they would sell for. Has anyone even seen any other jerseys from the Steelers from last season with the sweet 75th Ann. patch? They just seem impossible to find or even the throwbacks used twice last season and once this season. I also wonder if they carried those over and took the patches off.

what's the reason(s) for teams holding onto the game used jerseys/equipment and not selling them off?

The Steelers wore them twice this season as well. Home games against the Ravens & Giants.

I think Holmes was their leading receiver last year.

I just assumed that players held on to them for either themselves, or, as gifts to family and friends............trades.

Re: How do I get a g/u Steelers jersey?

I thought the jerseys were property of the team and not the players, and they are not allowed to keep them?

in speaking to a current player i know, they must purchase them from the team. they are payroll deducted from their paycheck.

Do you know what he did with the throwback games jerseys? Did you guys get them in from him.
One a side note I was just looking at your Vikings jerseys. Did that Adrian Peterson jersey vs Bears last about 2 seconds. I just saw it today and it's sold. Also are you getting in any Vikings Throwbacks from last year vs Green Bay game. I saw one from Allison on your site, but no one elses or any other Redskins throwbacks from lesser player's from last season.

Bill,

I am not interested in selling the Lloyd jersey. If my plans change, I will keep you in mind.
