No Lime jerseys yet ??

[JackHE]

Been a few weeks since the group of Seahawks Lime Green jerseys were bought from JO and thought some would start to surface. Surely, the buyer won't keep them all and would like to recoup some $$.

Anybody heard anything ??

Some are on there, but have been sold already.

Re: No Lime jerseys yet ??

clinton so your saying jo sold a jersey you had on reserve out from under you? thats not cool at all. once you put a deposit down in my book it is yours unless for some reason they dont get the jersey i.e. player in question opted to keep his jersey from that game or it got damaged in shipment from the team or you cannot come up with the balance within x amount of days of when the jersey is ready to ship unless you were specifcally told that jo reserved the right to cancel the sale for some other reason. selling the whole lot or not is irrelevant and if i were you i would make a huge stink over it.

Legal,

Hate to say it but the same thing happened to me with JO. I had a Saints jersey (as well as a Raiders jersey) that I was making payments on. When I paid it off, they tried to sell me the white version before I showed them the e-mails where I had reserved the black jersey.

They did refund my money on the Saints jersey but that took a while as well. Because of that, I no longer subscribe to their e-mail list or go to their website. I know they are getting a few more contracts with teams but, since I met some NFL people from all teams at a recent event, I've decided to try contacting them myself. It actually hasn't been as difficult as I thought.

thanks for the info. i was going to preorder a few jerseys from them next season of the new jets but in light of what you guys are saying i wont now. they should take items out of inventory once they are preordered.

Re: No Lime jerseys yet ??

I too was hoping to obtain a Middle of the Road Player Jersey from the Lime Green Collection, However the Truth is NO ONE WILL BE OBTAINING ANY OF THOSE JERSEYS.
My Understanding (Directly from JO Sports) is THE BUYER OF THE BULK LOT OF 2009 SEATTLE SEAHAWKS ALTERNATE LIME GREEN JERSEYS-DOES NOT OR WILL NOT SELL ANY PART OF HIS COLLECTION EVER!
I estimate the total cost of the Lot 53 Jerseys at about 40K
Wish i had 40K to toss away like that.
Is it me or are there some SICKLY RICH people in the WORLD?????

Re: No Lime jerseys yet ??

I think the buyer severly overpaid for the whole lot of jerseys, especially when you consider that players like Hasselbeck and Walter Jones didnt even play in that game

I think it is a very strong to say the guy will never sell any part of his collection ever. Even to the very rich events happen sometimes that make it necessary to sell i.e. business goes bad, they get ripped off in an investment scam i.e. Madoff clients, they suffer a major health problem or they die and their family does not want the stuff or they simply grow tired of collecting and sell it. Look at Barry Halper, widely acclaimed as the greatest collector ever he was very wealthy (he even owned a piece of the Yankees) collected for a very, very long time and then just decided to part with everything in his collection and did. As far as price he probably paid over 60 grand as most JO jerseys are over a grand. Edgerrin James is easily a 4,000-5,000 dollar jersey under Jo's pricing structure and some others like Hasselback, Walter Jones, Lofa, Curry and Trufant also probably went for over 2 grand.

Does anyone know if the Seahawks will use those jerseys again this year or in the future since they were so popular last year? If so, that investment just took a huge hit...unless he buys this group as well.

Re: No Lime jerseys yet ??

The lime jersey is still listed as the alternate for the Seahawks. I can't wait for the Packers alternate this year, that will be a sight for the eyes.

Follow the money. Jo probably paid them a fortune for those jerseys and they were so popular with the fans (imagine how many authentic jerseys of this style people bought) and like any team once something is successful teams tend to keep doing it until they have milked the last drop of profit out of it. And the Hawks have alot of new players this year so alot of fans would probably love to pick up a Whitehurst, White, Washington, Okung or Thomas authentic lime green jersey and otherwise the Hawks are not a popular team and lack the type of stars that move merchandise so it makes sense to continue.

Wow, if that is true that person must be some huge Seahawks fan or really loves the color of lime green.

Re: No Lime jerseys yet ??

The green alternates are done. I read an article somewhere that the Seahawks were cutting ties with that color jersey. So, those jerseys will be pretty rare. Think MPLS LA Lakers jerseys from 01-02 as a comparison
