Best place to buy a GB jersey

[MrCharisma]

I'm keen to get one, I can't seem to find much at this stage and I'm hoping I can get a good reference.

So far I'm looking at Rugby League Online... they are charging $108 plus postage, however much that is...

Anyone got a perfered retailer I can be refered too?

 

[MrCharisma]

CRAP

I don't have a credit card. It was going to cost an extra $40 using Royal Mail

Best bet would be to wait till Tri-Nations time then check the specialty outlets like PeterWynns and stuff. Not sure about whats avilible in Newcastle however. I got mine (the 2004 model) at supporters world in Wollongong for $120 last christmas

AU$108 is pretty good? They retail for 50 pounds in JJB Sports over here, which is about AU$125 (depending which way the breeze is blowing).

Postage from the UK will be the biggest cost, unless they bring out a local batch in Oz. Puma look to be the maker if that helps...

I work on the Central Coast and often go to Sydney, so anywhere is a good start.

Ebay is crap and I might have to check out Peter Wynn... although I will check out Evil Homers website.

Like I said, Royal Postage from England was $40 so in total it'd cost me $150... which is average price... not that I care, I've just wanted one for years and now have the money to do so.

Seeing as youre in Wollongong. Can you get any of the local club jerseys down there like Corimal (?), Thiroull, Helensburg etc?

If someone could also tell me where I could get a Bradford jersey from, that would be greatly appreciated, because Charisma is useless

*preferably an aussie outlet is possible.

I tried and tried, even tried to ask ISC, who make the jerseys here and ship them over to England. In the end I found it's easier to buy them online. You can get them fairly cheap, keep your eye on eBay too, a brand new 2005 Away jersey went for £25 yesterday. I think I've got some links for Bulls jerseys, althought the 2005 jersey's about the same at most places, it only goes down once a replacement jersey is released.

Although they're a Union site, they have 2005 Home & Away jerseys for £43 and 2004 Home & Away for £35, plus postage. I'm not sure if VAT is deducted if you're purchasing from overseas though.

Bradford Bulls have the jerseys for around £45, but not all sizes are always available.

I quite like Bradford's away jersey, mostly a deep green. Not quite the traditional, but goes with more clothes than a mostly white design?

*Can't believe I'm talking fashion and footy jerseys...*

As far as an alternate jersey goes, it's definitely different to their home design, I'm not a fan though, I'd prefer one that was at least based on the black/red/yellow/white colour scheme.

I went to Rebel Sport and they said because of stock take, I'd have to wait 3 weeks

You can't find them in retail store likes Rebel, but i know that you can if you contact the clubs directly - they have some in their club stores, along with hats, beer holders, etc.

My Great Britian jersey arrived today from Rugby League Online.. WHOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOT

 

[bartman]

Finally, good stuff for you MrC!

 

[Weasels Ripped My Flesh]

Does anyone know if the 2005 GB jerseys are cotton-based on the synthetic stuff?

 

[MrCharisma]
