Show Me Your Chicago Bears Stuff.......

[Samets]

I agree. Hester is now the red headed step child in Chicago. His jerseys are not moving on eBay to the point where one seller just pulled his set...

It will be interesting to see what the future holds for him and prices of his jerseys... I was thinking of getting one but decided to wait it out and pick one up cheaper later on when he's done.

I'm getting more and more into the pre-2000 jerseys where the prices are way better and gamers show tremendous use...


Congrats on a cool jersey.

Visited a local place and took some photo's of the art on the walls

All appear to be authentic and most appear to be game worn...

Last one...

Joe Cain's 1995 Home jersey... Looks like a full season's worth of use on this one!

[Desi]

Lou Malnati's?

[Samets]

Yes!

I don't think anyone in the room knew what they were looking at... IF they even looked...

[Samets]

Is anyone going to the Draft Party at the Soldier Field?

Would be nice to meet some of the other members...

Samets Everyone is entitled 2 their views & opinions & Everyone's Collection Starts Somewhere But Remember What I Tell U Here That When U Go 2 Sell Your C & D Tier Player Jerseys (Webb, Cain, Cox, E. Williams, Berrian, Bennett, Engram, R. Davis, K. Davis, D. Clark, Adams.....) Down the Road U WILL Get BURNED & 1/3 of What U Paid on the High End. You should B Consulting with BIGSTIGA Maybe Dude Will Show U the Light of Day.

In My World More is Less & Less is More and If I wanted 2 Collect Trash I Would Have Become a Garbage Man.

Ron,

I'm not sure where to even begin with the above self-righteous rant...
I don’t need to consult anyone to tell me what I should be collecting. I collect what makes ME happy and if it happens to be a no one from 1992, so what? I’m not here to chase high dollar jerseys, as previously stated ; “I personally started to move away from the current players and higher prices to the forgotten heroes of the days long gone.” The beauty of this hobby is that everyone can collect what they like… I personally rather have 5 hammered 90’s jerseys than one modern shirt that saw one game’s worth of use. I enjoy the old uniforms and the process of research done for every jersey I acquire.
As far as getting “BURNED” down the line comment… I’m not sure how you know what I paid for my jerseys but rest assured, I will not be burned. I’m here to collect and as a true collector, I collect for my enjoyment and not to make a profit down the line that should be left to Investment collectors…
Did you take the comments from the other thread as a personal attack on you or other collectors that buy jerseys of current guys? I simply stated my personal opinion and no disrespect is ever meant toward any collector when I express my views of the state of the hobby and prices as I see them…
I would love to own many of the jerseys in your collection, just not at the price you’re willing to spend on them. I’m sure I’ll be able to buy many modern jerseys down the line for what I feel is a fair price to me. I’m really looking forward to adding a nice Urlacher, Briggs, Peppers, Hester and Gould to my collection.

Not Downing Anyone's Collection as Most GU is Sick on Sum Level & we All Collect 4 Our Own Enjoyment But @ the Same Time I'm Done Taking 2/3 Hits on Money Invested.

Just 1 Mans Opinion

Too late buddy... Too late...
