Lads, I cant recommend DHGATE enough for ordering jerseys must of ordered over 10 jerseys to my home address with no hassle from customs. they work out about 17eur a pop. Would really recommend going that route.

i am the same, buy off DHGATE, one jersey at a time , arrives in the door with my postman in ball park 3 weeks from time of shipping, never had I any issues with customs.

The regular seller I buy off sent me his details and I can buy direct off him/her , pay via paypal and he knocks a couple of dollars off the price .

Last retro jersey I bought cost me 15.75 euro delivered to my door.

You go onto their site go to place an order then have to wait till they send a paypal invoice for you to pay.
With the time difference it can take a day or 2 to get it sorted.

I prefer just ordering what I want in one go.

If you text her with the order number she sends the invoice straight away and you pay by PayPal, if you choose to wait for the invoice that’s on you
She is very accommodating on text imo

Most people getting caught are the ones not using PM

It's well commented on here that your chances of having your package caught by customs increases big time when using your home address.

It seems people are too stingy to pay the extra €4 for PM or too lazy to research on here the most effective way to receive your delivery.

On the sandy jerseys.

I'm normally a large. Do I order a large?

Also buying for someone who else who is...let's say a larger man who is normally an XL.

Are the jerseys same sizing as the shop bought ones or tighter? Want to get this right as they're a few Christmas presents.

Cheers.

different brands/shops have different sizes so it is best to use the size chart on the website it is spot on, just throw a tape around your chest and away you go.

Will I bother sending customs back the invoice from Sandy to see what they say??

No harm in it, but I dont think it will bare much fruit.

Hey all, are the tracksuits true to size or are they similar to the jerseys that you'd need to size up?

Hey omega, Ive used that alright but was just wondering how accurate it would be for the tracksuits. Sure look the only way to find out is to get one and see I guess.

Well I ordered a Jordan one in the summer.

Wasnt too impressed but it wasnt bad. I wear large in jerseys normally and but XL off Sandy. I usually wear an XL in hoodys, wo as this trackie was a hoody I gambled and went up a size.

Hoodie was fine. Pants were a bit off size wise, waist was elasticated but tight and crotch was a little tight but legs were long and baggy. Not unwearable but not perfect either.

I am gonna chance my arm with a United trackie soon though.

Tracksuits are the same as the football shirts size wise, quality isn’t great in the tracksuit bottoms but they lasted a year going to the gym so I’m not going to argue at that price

Just got letter from Revenue about package im expecting from Sandy. 5 items worth about 85 euro. What am I supposed to do? Is it just email back my receipt and see what they are going to charge me? If time ive had something stopped.

Sent back an email to Revenue showing a Paypal payment for 81 euro to Sandy. They sent me back an email saying I owed import duty of 25euro on the package. Jerseys arrived this morning and I gave the postman 25euro...:D

relegation fodder arsenal gear on the way to mine, they will probably throw that away doing me a favour

glad you got your order, even the duty added makes it a bargain

Got 2 retro ireland jersey delivered via PM no issues. Ordered s,m sizes. In case anyone ordering I'm normally a medium in jerseys but it ended up being too big, so will be reordering the S again(as the other was a present) as that was a perfect fit. I measured the M against a Spurs M I had previously got and you could see there was a bit of difference between them.

You must have either got a bad shirt or washed it in the machine too hot
I’m wearing one now that’s 2 years old from Sandy and it’s perfect, send her a text and see what she says

Washed at 30 degrees abs no where near a thimble dryer.

I’ve emailed them so we’ll see

Was it just the one shirt you ordered that went like that or was this just one of a number of shirts?

Hand wash only according to the washing advice that came with all my shirts

henke

I wash my shirts from Sandy at 30 and usually forget to turn them inside out. Hold up fine. Might have been unlucky to get a bad jersey.

beakerjoe

Ive only ever had 1 jersey ruined from Sandy and that was down to a 40 wash. My own fault.

Should be hamdwashed but I always 30 it. Never an issue.

Used to work in Champion, loads of jerseys returned from folks who accidentally washed at high temps. They never admitted fault obviously. Mine never feel apart on a 30 though only when I washes higher or tumble dried it.

Esse85

I put all my shirts in the washing machine at 30 and no issues. I could not be bothered hand washing them, if I had to do that I'd rather pay full price from a retailer and use the washing machine.

Lenny17123

Just an update from myself. Got a Liverpool tracksuit and went up a size and fits perfect even the bottoms are fine no issues.

Got a jacket my standard size thinking jackets might be a bit bigger of a fit. Should have sized up there. It fits but I would have preferred bigger.

Ordered using fast shipping on the 5th of November and it arrived today via parcel wizard.

Ordered a Jersey back in September that still hasn't turned up. Used the standard shipping for that so maybe it got lost on route. Been onto sandy who's offered to replace the Jersey on my next order or resend it now if I pay for the fast shipping which is ideal.

Overall very happy with the quality and speed of delivery.

Lesson learned not to use the standard shipping.

maximoose

Order I placed with Sandy on 5th arrived today via Parcel Wizard. No customs issues.

Included a Leeds away top, the quality is so much better than the same jersey from Shoot.

Hi guys does anyone know if DHGate takes very long? Just checked my order which was shipped today and estimated time says "17/2/2021" :O

The sellers put that to cover themselves so you can’t open a dispute / refund claim until that date has passed .
I’m seeing 3 to 4 week arrival time for the jerseys I have ordered off DHgate in recent months .

OmegaGene

my latest order from sandy was the 10th of this month and they are with parcel motel today, express shipping free with $80 spend is alright

Fake trainers could ruin your feet, if you look at the Nike sale now and with 30% discount code you snag some real bargains
I picked up a pair recently from €165 down to €60

Plus one. Quality of trainers is shockingly bad. They dont last and can cause you to get foot pain long term. Not worth it.

As Gene says, sales are a better bet.

Got a pair of football boots before and they fell apart on first use. Looked the part but shoddy quality.

What’s the story with delivery from Sandy? I have 4 units for the young lads, any advice on best delivery method etc? Should I get another to bring it to 5?

Sandy is of the belief that quanity doesnt make a difference in being caught with customs. I am more cautious.

I have had an order of 10 items before and it here successfully using the UK Parcel Motel address.

I usually got for 5 items per order though and always use Parcel Motel.

I don't agree at all. |I spent months looking for a good supplier and i got a great one. My son got football boots, used 3 times a week and still going strong, not a problem at all.

It all about getting the right supplier.

Well I can only speak for the one I used. Twas ****e.

Fair play if youve found a good one though.

Yeah, i got 2 tracksuits and 2 jerseys earlier this week, was waiting 10 days from shipment with Parcel Motel.
It was over $90 I total so free EMS shipping, well worth it

Let’s see how his feet are in a few years, not sure why you would bother with fake boots or trainers when the sales are so good online
Once your feet are damaged it’s a nightmare, each to their own I guess

Plenty of good suppliers to be found there.

I always go for suppliers with a high volume of transactions, good reviews.. specifically referencing the delivery times. Always keep an eye on their terms re: days to dispatch. Whoever originally found Sandy was incredibly lucky, she is not the norm. Shoot are extremely hit and miss and there's a few floating around instagram that are absolutely useless.

What?! Have you ever heard of anyone resulting in permanent damage from counterfeit boots?! The same logic applies to the jerseys if you're that worried, christ knows what substandard or unsafe materials/chemicals are used on unofficial jerseys.

To clarify further, i've had official boots absolutely tear the feet off me, adidas ones to be specific.
