Made my first ever aliexpress order last night after a lot of deliberation. Woke up today to find that the store has vanished.

Should I be panicking?

It's the aliexpress seller that's vanished although the order has now moved to the shipping stage. There's buyer protection on aliexpress so I should be ok I guess

Edit: cancelled and requested a refund.

Lmao the aliexpress cancellation got rejected as apparently it's been shipped. I'm possibly going to end up with 2 jerseys at this rate. Guess I could stick one on eBay. Guess I just have to be careful regarding wording if I do.

Edit. Jerseyshopus agreed to swap my order for a different shirt. Fingers crossed

Well my first jersey arrived, the one from some random Aliexpress store. I'm really impressed. Other than a couple of very minor areas with poor stitching ( on the NFL badge and on the name tag) which only notice under scrutiny it's drat good. Of course I've nothing to compare it to other than my sons authentic youth game jersey, and it's way better than that.

Here's a few pics. My other shirt should be arriving soon. Be interesting to see how they compare.

Well my Jennashop jersey arrived and it blows the one I bought (by mistake!) off the shut down Aliexpress shop out the water in every way. I was really happy with the original Jones shirt but the difference with the Jennshop one in quality is immense. Much heavier better quality material, better stitiching, reinforced neck.The cut is slightly more generous which is the only small down side as I like the slightly tighter more casualwear look to the other one.

Definitely recommend jerseyshopus.

Did you order your normal size or have to go up? I think I'm about to buy a Zeke jersey on there

I dont have anything to compare it to tbh. I went for a large ( Im 6 ft 4 and 210lbs) and its pretty generously sized.

My Xmas present order for my kids arrived. Sadly my wife whipped them away to before I got pictures. Again both were from jerseyshopus.com. Both are kids jerseys so are copies of the Game shirts as opposed to mine which was an elite/on field. Difference of course being between my sons authentic Cam Newton shirt and the new 'fake' Beckham Jr one is this has stitched numbers as opposed to the crappy screen print. To be honest the fake shirt looks better than the authentic one.

My daughters was a custom named Jags shirt. The custom name plate is fantastic, even uses the correct font for her name. Only criticism is the stitching around the gold collar detail is a little off and the colour is a touch too yellow to my eyes. Again here in the U.K. no one is gonna notice.
Of the two the Giants top is the better but only because it's probably the more simple shirt (the blue home one) to copy. There's not a lot in it though and I'm really satisfied with the quality and can't wait to see them try them on on Xmas day.

Lol. Actually the Jaguars are fairly popular here mainly due to the number of games they've played at Wembley. I see they are on fixture list for next season too. Rumours have been that if Europe gets a franchise it will be the Jags.

When I chose the Falcons as my team lots of posters kept telling me I was going to be disappointed. They clearly didn't understand the British mentality

My wife hadn't wrapped the kids jerseys after all.
Here's some pics

The Jags shirt looks reasonable to my admittedly inexperienced eyes. The collar detail looks off to me, too yellow and the material is a slightly odd vinyl feel to it. The rest looks good. Badge is ok, well embroidered but on close inspection looks a tiny bit off, and the custom name plate seems decent.





My sons Giants shirt looks better but obviously it's a way simpler design. The colours look better in real life for both shirts ( other than that yellow collar detail on the Jags) as I was in a poorly lit room trying to quickly get snaps before the presents were wrapped.




What's interesting to me is these shirts are very different to the one I ordered for myself. The kids ones are direct copies of the Game jerseys right down to the direct printed garment label whereas my Elite shirt has a proper sown label. Obviously the big standout for these Game jerseys is stitched numbers but in all honesty putting my sons authentic Nike panthers jersey next to the Giants Chinese copy , I'd pick the copy every time as the better product.

Good thing I got a jersey (for my mom, and was about to order mine) before it shut down

I tried this one and Jennashop and the payments were declined. :( Is there a tried and true method of getting it through?

Whenever I order from Jennashop I get payment declined but then I get an email to say it’s gone through fine. If you email them they can send PayPal invoices.

Uhm. Did those sites get shut down? One payment went through but the sites are down it looks like.

Probably. I wouldn’t worry if you ordered it will still get to you.
