Just saw this on ebay: https://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll...:X:RTQ:US:1123
Anyone have any experience with this sort of stuff? Looks like a killer deal if they are real castelli products. I have that exact same jersey/

I would second Bonktown. They have great prices and an excellent return policy. I run a desktop gadget on my computer so I can see when deals pop up.

Quick question, if you say the ToC jerseys were a bit large, how tall are you, and what's your rough chest circumference? I normally wear XSmall or Small, depending on the brand...

I just got my second order of TOC jerseys. I liked them so much that I ordered again. Top quality Hincapie or Voler jerseys for less than you'd pay for Nashbar bottom drawer stuff. Not bad mouthing the Nashbar stuff because mine look very sturdy but the Voler/Hincapie stuff is a giant leap in quality for $15 a jersey. That price for such quality is amazing. Who cares if it says 2009 on it and has the Herbalife logo on it.

I hear you. I'm gunshy of ordering online but I got lucky with large jerseys from TOC store. They fit great. Ordering from other online stores, I need medium, large or even XL depending on the brand. My LG jerseys from Nashbar are way baggy but I still wear them.

Has anybody tried the Zimco stuff on ebay? My younger brother asked me about them but I've never heard of the brand before.

I just got my bones NorthWave stuff from Tiny Deal in china...
https://www.tinydeal.com/cycling-jers...1_845_850.html
$36 for jersey AND shorts, delivered! And they were great quality. Pretty close to the Hincapie Amgen jersey. It took 2 weeks, and I'd bet they are a total fake, but in this case, i really couldn't care less.
