  • Is this the most expensive Cycling Jersey ever?

    WTAF??

    The mother of all cycling jerseys and probably the most expensive cycling jersey of all time.

    If I had the cash spare it would be a toss-up between this jersey and a brand new Aston Martin Virage.

    Serves me right for trying to be clever with the link – sorted it.

    Free delivery, that’s nice. Wonder how many offers he has had? BIN price seems to be to get as much as possible not what he will take, not my colour or size but I reckon it’s worth £50 🙂

    Hmm, second hand cycling jersey. £30 is my best offer.

    It’s **** horrible and I wouldn’t even pay £50 for it.

    Didn’t the seller buy it for something crazy like 10k? Or did it never sell so he’s gone for the oligarch rich, as opposed to lottery winner rich…

    Looks like a shitty rugby top from the 90’s.

    It’s been up multiple times before. Reckon it was bought in speculation and is now feeling like a tit and chancing his arm.

    the singletrack version the other seller is a tad optimistic on the price

    That one is biggerer too so your fabric per pound is greater.

    Typo surely?😲
    £150? (Which still seems steep)
    EDIT: my offer of £7.49 was declined, ah well, it wouldn’t fit me anyway.

    I went crazy and offered £25 plus postage – surprised to see my offer automatically rejected Oh well theres always the Paul Smith signed £20 note he is selling for £20,000 to mull over 🙂

    You’re pseudo rich if you buy that and keep it in its packaging in a dark room.

    If you’re really rich you’ll rip it out of its packet and wear it on a muddy bike ride. 🙂

    I quite like it and would be prepared to pay £30 for it.

    So it’s not even a one-off and the seller thinks Gary Kemp (there is no-one else on the market for that shirt) will pay over 100K for it? Not a chance. £500 max.

    So it’s not even a one-off

    I do hope the other owners aren’t keeping theirs as a retirement fund…

    Glad to see that he’s provided enough detailed photos that a factory in Bangladesh could start knocking out indistinguishable copies by next Saturday.

    I’ll pick one up down the market next weekend for a tenner.

    Ah now I wouldn’t go that far… I have some very nice Paul Smith trousers for those sartorial moments (that don’t happen anymore).

    It claims its a piece of cycling history? What history? Its never been worn or seen daylight. Meh, its just an object.

    The actual genuine “most expensive jersey” I can think of (rather than some total chancer on ebay) is the Deloitte Ride Across Britain Golden Jersey:
    https://www.rideacrossbritain.com/2016/07/27/lure-golden-jersey/

    The RAB is a fully supported Lands End – John O’Groats ride done over 9 days and it’s about £1700 (ish) per event depending on when you book. You get a “free” Golden Jersey on completion of your third RAB so the jersey actually costs 3 x £1700 so £5100. And you actually have to do some riding for it as well.
