NFT: Overseas fan support :)

Mariusz : 5/27/2015 12:15 pm
First of all I'd like to say hi to all of you.
My name's Mariusz and I'm from Poland in Europe.
I try to watch every Giants game I can (which is not easy where I live because of lack of interest in football in general here which means almost no TV broadcasts and time of games (usually between 1AM and 6AM local time).Despite that I enjoy watching NFL football games and since I saw my first Giants game and any football game at all (about 4 years ago) I'm sticking to this great team.
So this is background, now to the topic: Since that very first game I saw I've always wanted to have Giants jersey so I could go out on street and wear it proudly and spreading word about Giants where probably not even 1% of population in my city have heard about it. Main problem is that here in Poland jersey price is about same as in US but i suppose that wages are slightly different so I'd have to spend approx. 10-15% of my monthly salary to buy it. Second hand market doesn't exist (probably because early mentioned lack of interest).
So here is my question: Does anyone perhaps have Giants jersey that is not needed for him anymore and would be willing to send it abroad (ideally if someone have already experience in sending things abroad cause I don't know how it really works or is it even possible at all) so it can have it's sacond life? It doesnt even have to be official jersey or something. I can offer about 10$ (it won't hurt that much as 100$) but maybe it will at least cover shipping costs.
If anyone is willing to help Giants supporter on the other side of the sea please write here or email me menelx1991@o2.pl I realise that probably nothing gonna happen but who knows? I thought that it's at least worth a try.


P.S: Sorry for any spell and/or grammar mistakes because it's not my native language.
P.S.2: Let's go GIANTS!

Don't worry about your English. Won't take you long here to figure out we're not so good at it either.

Thanks for words of support. Im really glad to read it and to know that someone was at least able to read and understand what I wrote there. Maybe at least I will be able to meet some nice people here so I will have someone to discuss about Giants and maybe one day when I'll be rich (probably not gonna happen) we will go to MetLife and watch game live... who knows.
Have you tried this for Jerseys

That could be a start. I'm little worried what about shipping prices overseas. If anyone know what are shipping prices and could at least check some of these offers to pick some favorites (I don't know second hand market prices and I don't want to be ripped off) Also I don't know about sizes in US. I'm about 6'-6'1" tall and about 220 lbs so I think maybe XL but probably someone from US will know better. Perfectly is if it would've been as close to real jersey (blue) as possible not more than 30$, can be used but not damaged so I can wear it outside. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
$10 won't get you a jersey

$30 maybe for something washed up assuming the shipping isn't extraordinary.

Now if you can get Pudzianowski to come in to fill in for Ayers, I'm sure you can get some kind of discount.
Shipping prices are killers

I've noticed shipp ng prices part on ebay and most of these says 20$ or more for shipping to Poland. Maybe someone is going to send a package for family in Poland or something and could squeeze in one jersey or something. I have no other idea how to get around it.

Unluckily I have nothing more in common with Pudzianowski than first name :) Back on track - that was my first thought after checking that ebay link. Guess i'll have to put out some money and wait till next summer because 50$ is already half the price of new jersey here in shop and I can't afford it at the moment.
