I purchased the item below believeing it was a Kobe game used jersey. I then sold it a few weeks later for a little profit. When I sold it I had the best of intentions. However, a small time after that I found out that the jersey I sold was 10000% NOT game used. Mr. Lampson threw me under the bus. Kobe Bryant never ever at any time wore the jersey I believed to be the real deal. I never was able to find the buyer and the rest is history. Just wanted to share my story........

Re: I Sold A Fake Kobe Bryant GU Jersey
It happens.
Sometimes even us so called "experts" in our respective areas get burned.
It takes a man to risk the consternation of some of the "holier than thou" contingent of this board to step up and own an eff-up.
You'll get no grief from this humble collector. -
Re: I Sold A Fake Kobe Bryant GU Jersey
I know my stuff on post 2001 NFL jerseys...and especially college football jerseys. On NBA I am not expert and I got burned. Unfortunately I passed (unintentionally) that burn onto someone else. After this Bryant debacle, I decided to no longer pay attention to ANY Lampson LOA.ALWAYS buying PHOTO MATCHED Marcus Allen and Anfernee Hardaway jerseys.

Re: I Sold A Fake Kobe Bryant GU Jersey
I bought it from Vintage under the idea it was game used. I literally sold it off my back in Las Vegas. I was walking in Bellagio and a Laker fan saw it and inquired. I told him what it was and he offered to buy it. Thats how I lost track of the buyer. Never saw him again.

This is a great story that could possibly be made into one of those, "what happens in Vegas stays in Vegas" commercials.Comment

Re: I Sold A Fake Kobe Bryant GU Jersey
Anybody who can be walking around and just arbitrarily buy a Kobe jersey for a game used-type price must have enough money that they really don't care if it's real or not. How did he pay you on the spot? I'm assuming cash, and not a small amount of cash. Anybody carrying that kind of cash probably wouldn't be THAT upset to find out the jersey isn't real. Maybe I'm wrong.Comment

Re: I Sold A Fake Kobe Bryant GU Jersey
What a minute, hold on, I want to make sure I undertand this! Were you seriously wearing Kobe Bryant jersey that you assumed to be game used? Then a random person off the street offered you, what Im assuming is quite a bit of money, for a game used jersey he see's you wearing, without any proof that the jersey is game used. What exacly do you feel bad about, wearing the jersey or the fact some random (obviously intoxicated) person bought it?
This is a great story that could possibly be made into one of those, "what happens in Vegas stays in Vegas" commercials.
I wish I had the _____ to wear a $1,000 jersey on the streets of Vegas. At least he paid you for it, your lucky he didn't just swipe it off your back. I'd be afraid of spilling anything on it.Broncos middle linebacker.....Joe Mays!sigpic

Re: I Sold A Fake Kobe Bryant GU Jersey
This whole thread reminds me of my mother-in-law when she makes up stories as she goes along...
You can't just call your mother-in-law a liar on this board without presenting evidence to support your claims.
Admins, please tell me why helmets is allowed to continue posting after this unprovoked attack on his mother in law.
Isn't it possible that your mother-in-law was the person in Vegas who bought the shirt? And maybe it's a Xmas gift for you. So you, my friend, might be knee deep in this scandal without even knowing it.
Gotta run. My inbox is filling up with emails stating that my posts are the most refreshing on the board. Really.Greg

Re: I Sold A Fake Kobe Bryant GU Jersey
why cant he wear it??? its 1,000 bucks, u drive a 25,000 car and leave it on the street? whats the big deal, oh maybe he will be walking down the street and a can of paint will fall on him??? and if u really think the player was the last person to wear the jersey than u better get a grip... just put these jerseys in a showcase and stare at a thousand dollars of cloth.Comment
