Rumble In the Jungle Posted January 13, 2010 Report Share Posted January 13, 2010 lol, this happened in MONROE, NFL tappin on our Flee Market! [quote][size="6"][b]Trader’s World Raid Nets Counterfeit NFL Jerseys[/b][/size] MONROE, Ohio -- Monroe Police are spending the day tagging counterfeit NFL jerseys as evidence. Detectives say they seized more than 2,000 fake football jersey's during a bust at Trader's World on Sunday. Four Trader's World vendors are under investigation. Their names are not being released because they are not yet charged. Monroe Detectives tell 9News someone who works for NFL merchandise got a tip while working in Cincinnati about illegal apparel at Trader's World. That NFL employee checked out the booths at Trader's World and then called police to take the items away. The jerseys were being sold at Trader's World for about $40. Investigators say they should retail for $175 to $225. Detectives say the shirts are made in China. While they look legitimate, detectives say there are clear indicators that they are copies. Once the case is over the jerseys will have to be destroyed. Detectives say if you bought one of the fake jersey's it is illegal to own it. However, they say they aren't going to come after you unless you try to sell it. In the last 12 months Monroe Police have also busted vendors at Trader's World for selling fake purses and DVDs. The manager of Trader's World says vendors who sell counterfeit items are not welcome at his property. He says the vendor's rental agreement does not permit selling or displaying of counterfeit merchandise.

MileHighClub Posted January 13, 2010 Report Share Posted January 13, 2010 I was visiting my parents in Centerville this past October, and wanted to get a jersey while I was there. Someone on this board had posted that they had gotten one at Trader's World on the cheap, so I drove down there and got myself an "authentic" orange Maualuga jersey for 50 bucks. I figured all of their jerseys were knock-offs (not that I cared), but my suspiscion was confirmed when I saw an 85 jersey with "Ocho Cinco" on the back. No wonder they got busted.

[/quote] Many of the mass Ebay stores are not actually in the US so its hard to do. They use a US address to mail and set up a paypal account but the merchandise never sets foot in the US until it is shipped directly to the buyer. I used to own some commercial property and a lady who sold high end hand bags (wink, wink, nod, nod) rented some of the space and sold them there. She was a great tenant for about 2 years then one day she calls and said she was moving out. EVERY HAND BAG (100s) were out of there in less than 12 hours. Seems her partners got busted at some flee market in Brookville and she thought they were on their way to her store. They don't mess around either. They take everything, destroy it and the owners get fined big time. Some of her stuff seemed well made but as GO said, some (most) of it was real cheap crap. I guess if you want people to think you can spend $3-800 on frikken purse its a cheap alternative. From what she told me, her profit margins were pretty sick.
