phaedo Posted June 24, 2007 Report Posted June 24, 2007 So it is getting towards winter here in Australia, and I guess I will need a new sweatshirt for the coming cooler weather. Anyway, rather than getting the same old stuff we have here, and since I am not a fan of rugby, I am thinking of getting a baseball one. Thinking of a redsox one, but I have run into a snag. The MLB website sell them, found one, but shipping is $50. I don't want to spend more on the shipping than I do on the sweatshirt. Amazon don't ship outside the US for clothing, and having spent the afternoon searching, I am finding it hard to find any deals on the net. It is getting a bit frustrating since they are all made in China anyway! Anyone have any ideas?
KB Posted June 24, 2007 Report Posted June 24, 2007 Ok first off..............it is Winter in Australia and has been for close to a Month now, second what's wrong with an AFL jumper? (which is after all Australian) and lastly...............I will make some inquiries for you and see what I can find. Ken
cornerstone Posted June 24, 2007 Report Posted June 24, 2007 what's wrong with an AFL jumper? The Swans are lame! Did you try ebay?
phaedo Posted June 24, 2007 Author Report Posted June 24, 2007 Ken, how did I know you would have 'connections'? I am originally from NZ, so for me at least, it is still autumn weather Actually, a girl at work during the week was wearing 3 jumpers she was so cold and I had just driven in with the top down on the car. And on that note, it is part of the reason I am not into AFL (although not into any of the footy, something about big muscly men running around grabbing at each others waists just doesn't do it for me...) CS, yes I did check out the bay, nothing there either, I guess maybe I should have thought about this a month ago before it started getting chilly.
cornerstone Posted June 24, 2007 Report Posted June 24, 2007 Ebay has 19 pages of results for "red sox jersey", you might just have been looking for the wrong turn of phrase. They don't look nearly as cosy as searches for "ski jumper" though...

They don't look nearly as cosy as searches for "ski jumper" though... Problem is 'jersey' means basically t-shirt type top on ebay. Have been typing in 'fleece', have managed to come across one that may be alright - most people will only ship inside USA on ebay for this type of thing. Don't really need a ski jumper - got the leather for when it gets that cold. At least it has filled in an afternoon searching rather than doing anything productive...

That will definitely be warmer! I think that counts as a productive Sunday Perhaps not up there with my morning wrestling in the "mosh pit" at Playschool - Live in Concert, but still....
