I'm taking a poll- UPDATED
Should I buy it or not? If I do it will be my (very early) birthday present. I'd love it. My favorite Dodger moment wrapped up in a shirt.... But still, it's $250 + shipping for something I'm likely to get mustard and nacho cheese all over...
What do you think? They have my size, which is a kind of rare thing. Hence why I want to get it now, rather than wait. If there was a T-shirt version (hence way cheaper).... or if it was Mike Scioscia's jersey (Mikey is my favorite Dodger of all time), it would be on its way here already. What do you think?
Update: responding to ZTZCheese's point in the comments, I can't get a regular personalized jersey with Gibson on the back and 23 as the number. MLB rules prohibit selling personalized jerseys with retired player name/number combinations. Believe me, I have looked into doing that many times. This is the only way to get one.
Posted by caltechgirl at August 1, 2008 10:21 PM | TrackBackThere is an option for a customized Dodgers T-Shirt at the lower left of the page, for a lot cheaper. It's not exactly the same (white on blue vs. blue on white), but you could get almost 10 of them for the same price...
But then again, it's not really the same thing, so, *shrug*.
My view is life is short. You gots the dough? You gets the shirt.
We all need a treat in life.

Posted by: pam at August 2, 2008 08:44 AMSpeaking as someone who just placed an order for $235 for a case of wine... I say get the shirt!
Posted by: wRitErsbLock at August 2, 2008 03:15 PMDo it. If you can afford it... you love that shirt already and you'll enjoy every damn minute wearing it. It will be worth it. Life is short.
There is good stain remover now... just in case there is spillage. ;-)

I'm with Helen. You gots the dough, you go getcha some.
I'm a firm believer in indulging the inner child now and then.
Posted by: Margi at August 3, 2008 10:03 AMIf the worry of a stain wouldn't keep you from wearing it with glee and your heart leaps with the very thought that it could be yours, go for it.
Get the thing you really want, then enjoy the heck out of it! (You know I do! ;))
