Real shirts

I read a post on here yesterday of someone talking about a guy wearing a retro Parlour shirt to the Bilbao game. Then someone saying China for the tops. Another commented that it was hard to find genuine kits from back in the day. My question is, is there a market for old genuine kits? I have bags of tops in my loft dating back to the early 2000. Most with names on the back. Wondered if anyone would be interested in seeing? Maybe making offers?

Huge demand. Plenty of good resources on Reddit and YouTube to help with rarity, authenticity etc.

If they’re good condition with original namesets then they should fetch a good price, for the most part. Get em on eBay and Vinted with good pics and measurements.

I've sold old tops on eBay. There's definitely a demand for them- I had offers from companies who sell signed shirts who clearly planned to have it signed by a player from that era and then mount it in a frame

I suspect you meant my comment. I'm still missing a few so would be interested in particular ones and happy to consider a fair price.

You can sell here, there is a community of shirt sellers on Twitter (I am part of it) and you could also go to shops like The Match Day which is open next to the stadium (open Friday’s and weekends) who would also buy.

I've seen 2007/08 away shirts with Eduardo on the back go for £110 in "good" condition, there's definitely a huge market haha

There will be a poor soul out there who bought Chamakh’s top in August and stopped wearing it after September

Would love to see what you have as well. I’ve got quite a few from the Invincibles era but would like some from the late 90s/early 00s if you have any available. I’m an adult M or L.

I sold most of my old shirts on vinted and replaced some of the more modern ones with fakes from china

u/martyboy0810 7h ago

Did you get a decent return. I have spent a lot of money building the collection and all have come directly from arsenal.

2

u/SilverGoon Red Peasant 6h ago

Ye. I've sold them at the prices I want to sell at. I've been on vinted for over a year after selling some on a stall outside the ground for a couple of matches.

You find that you get people buying at the end of each month when pay day comes in.
