I recently purchased 2 Brian Moorman jerseys through NFL Auctions. One was game used and the other was an "Authentic". I have included some photos of the jerseys below. There are 4 differences between the jerseys...
1) The most obvious is the pink captains patch
2) The location of the NFL shield
3) The blue material that goes around the shoulders. One is sewn on both sides and one is open on one side.
4) The 2008 jersey has the year and size tag in the collar and the 2009 jersey has the year under the size/manufacturers tag near the bottom of the jersey.
The 2009 tagging appears to be consistent with other game used jerseys from 2009 and the sewing of the blue material on the 2008's also seems to be consistent with other 2008 jerseys.
Besides these 4 things, the jerseys are identical in every way.
Is NFL Auctions flooding the game used market with these "Authentic" jerseys which in a few years, people will be passing off as game used?
I collect kickers/punters jerseys and the use on these jerseys is usually slim anyways. I have seen quite a few "authentic" Steve Gostkowski jerseys on NFL Auctions...does that mean in a few years these will all be game used jerseys?
Has anyone every bought one of these "Authentic" jerseys and compared it to a Game Used jersey? Do the "Authentic" jerseys match the game used jerseys in size and modifications?
I hate to go here but I am...did I receive a "Game Issued" or "Game-Ready" jersey from NFL Auctions instead of an "Authentic"?
Does this worry anyone else besides me?
