OP...I completely understand where you're coming from. Forget all the "wait until you have been here a while" lines. There is probably no topic that has not been covered at some point on this forum. It's the same logic with any topic on any forum, if one doesn't like it, one can easily not click on it. Very simple.

You can find nice jersey's on the web for sale every day. eBAY even has some nice deals if you look. Nashbar always run sales. I also like Voler, and Pactimo.
Have a look at those when you get time.
