NFL-Bengals Team Shop Update

[pietraynor]

Not sure if this has been posted or not, but stopped in the Cincy Team Shop today & noticed about 2 dozen gamers including 5 Owens & 3 Ochocinco, 2 Shipleys & 2 Greshams & 1 Benson. Prices start at $300 for commons to $750 for #81 & #85. Some were customized at the waist removing the tags, the majority appeared to be washed & showed lite wear..one lineman's jersey (if I remember right) had been cut off him from the neck to the waist & was priced at $500. To the best of my knowledge, no specific games listed w/these. Didn't see anything else game used. Thought I'd mention it for those interested. Jay.

Are you sure they aren't practice jerseys? JO has their gamers to the best of my knowledge. I know they had Ocho Cinco from the first two games already on their website recently and my understanding is they have a partnership deal with the Bengals. Those prices also sound way too cheap that you quoted. If someone at JO is following the board and could shed some light on this it would be great.

Jerseys weren't what I'm used to seeing the club wear as practice jerseys, but could be pre-season jerseys..I didn't look each one over, but noticed the year tags in the necks ranged from "07" to "10" for the players, seems to me one of the Shipleys had an "07" tag..I used to buy practice jerseys for $25-50 from the club & have seen the stars top out at $750 at the team store in the "old" days (C. Johnson, Palmer, R. Johnson). With the JO deal in place I was surprised to see any gamers at the store. I have about 10 vintage Bengals jerseys including Max Montoya & Dave Remington. Jay.

Hey Jay
Was there a Peko by chance? Would like to add him to my MSU collection.

Hmm. Yeah preseason jerseys or old jerseys (pre2010) is a possibility. I just would think that if JO did not get every jersey (which I don't think is true) from 2010 that the team would compete with them and sell them at a much lower price than JO does. I mean JO sells Ocho Cinco and Palmer for 5 grand each and Benson for 3 grand. Another thing is TO has kept alot of his jerseys in the past. Last year NFL Auctions auctioned off the Bills' AFL Throwback jerseys and everyone but TO's jersey was auctioned and on their Twitter NFL Auctions stated that he kept his and it would not be auctioned. I have not seen any on JOs site so idk if even they are getting any of his.
