I'd really like to get an authentic #36 too[/quote]

Matty,

Email him and ask him to send you a pic of the jersey inside out. Look at the numbers. I recently bought a nock off Cooley authentic for $25. Nice jersey for the price. I went home and compared it to my Portis authentic jersey that I bought off of Redskins.com. Sure there were minor differences that wouldn't be able to tell unless you knew that the one was a nock off. Anyhow what stuck out the most was that the Portis jersey had the burgundy number stiched onto a gold number. Where the Cooley one they just outlined the number with gold material. I am not sure if you understand what I am saying or not. If you want PM me and I can text you pics of what I am talking about....

That is my jersey and it is legit. I can send you more pics tomorrow if you would like. Believe me, though, it is not a knock off. It actually has some of the nicest stitching I have seen on any of my authentics. I think the quality of them has actually dropped off a bit since I bought this one in 2006.

Here is the only other pic I currently have that I did not use in the auction. I can provide more later.

My Sean Taylor jersey is authentic Korean -- only $25!

It's obviously a knock-off, but considering that the "real" authentics are probably made in Korea anyways...

I'd be interested to know what you jersey connoisseur's think? (my camera sux, so the colors are little off and some pics are a little blurry)

Setting aside whatever problems there are with buying counterfeit merchandise, it looks pretty good for a fake. I can't speak to the quality, but you can tell even from the pictures that it is not the same material as the authentics (the shine gives it away). Since you paid $25 and you knew what you were getting I'd say it was good as far as fake jerseys go. It's pretty easy to spot if you were trying to pass it off as an authentic, but every time I have ever been to FedEx 99.9% of the people are with "authentics" are wearing knock-offs so it is not like most people would notice the difference.

I do agree with you, though, that it is a decent example of a fake jersey.

Pretty decent fake, but it's an obvious fake, at least for those that know the difference.

Re: Authentic Sean Taylor jersey sz 54
 

I ended up selling both of the Sean Taylor jerseys. I do have an authentic Clinton Portis jersey (burgundy size 48) and a signed full size Sam Huff Riddell RK helmet (1958-1964 style) with JSA certificate up for sale now if anyone is interested (student loans suck!).

ah shit I totally forgot

Re: Authentic Sean Taylor jersey sz 54
 

On the topic of Sean Taylor jerseys, I saw a Sean Taylor 70th anniversary Redskins jersey on sale here in Iowa over the weekend. Correct me if I'm wrong, but the Redskins only wore the 70th anniversary jerseys in 2002, when Sean Taylor was still in college. I'm on wrong in believing that Sean Taylor never wore a 70th anniversary jersey on the field?

Correct. Reebok did make the 70th anniversary throwbacks (w/o the patches) in subsequent years and with players who were not on the 2002 team. Of course, as with most Sean Taylor jerseys you will come across, there are many more fakes than authentics so you always have to be careful and knowledgeable.

Re: Authentic Sean Taylor jersey sz 54
 

Thank you for the knowledge and the reply, SC Skins Fan. The same store also had a white Sean Taylor jersey with the 75th anniversary patch on it. I recently saw a video on YouTube explaining the patches aren't made available to the public, so that seems to be a giveaway that the white jersey is a fake.

Re: Authentic Sean Taylor jersey sz 54
 

Sounds like a jersey worth getting!
