I hate to say it, but the one bib/jersey Cervelo knockoff (I admit it) that I bought on ebay for like $50 for the kit feels nearly identical to all the pricey stuff they carry at my LBS that has team-branded logos on it. I was hoping for better material, stitching, etc, but it looks and feels identical. I suspect this is more due to the cheapening of today's team jerseys than not - I actually have a Sugoi mountain bike jersey I got as a gift 10+ years ago that is made of some very high quality polyester, smooth on outside AND inside, and zippers and stitching are notably better than the stuff I considered at the LBS. Not sure if they even make this stuff anymore, honestly.

My cheapo China bibs have been fine, though. Definitely not Assos, but neither are the team bibs at the LBS.
