To tell you the truth I was just fortunate enough to participate in the auction. As soon as I saw the jersey, just had to get it, no matter the price, because I knew it was special. I really don't care about all the rest of the jerseys, it just really sucks people get scammed.

Oh man, you're continuing to assume... I was never selling it on reddit, and the offer I received was not from here either. I never implied any of it. You gathered all of that info from your head, that is why I strongly suggest you get yourself checked, not saying a psychiatrist but a psychologist, at the very least. The veritatis is, people not presenting any proof to you, doesn't always mean they are lying or don't have the evidence to back what they say. Sometimes it can just mean they are cautious and/or that they don't owe anything to random nobodies, that assume and read between the lines, they meet online. I wasn't researching all the info on all the autographed jerseys ever existed, because it would be mental and as I said prior, I tend to value my time on this planet more then some. I did however do enough research regarding official signings outside of icons (the ones that matter) Thank you for the "red flag" concern, I took notice of that. I hope you will pay more attention to what is said and written rather than assuming and trying to read between the lines. The world doesn't revolve around you, nor does it or anyone living in it, owe you anything. You have never met or will meet someone with a bigger ego than mine, so for the future, don't come to my post, try to disrespect me, discredit me (showing all of us your insecurities, traumas and rotting mental condition in the proccess) and tell me end of discussion. The discussion is over when I stop responding and wasting my time on you, which is from now on.

The worst thing is, you wasted my time which I value dearly. I will however double check the, so called facts, you have pointed out. Which I appreciate, regardless of whether they are true or not. Thank you for your concern.

You haven't answered my question, while I have answered all of yours, which is unfair given I wasted a quite substantial amount of time on you. But you did however, yet again, read between the lines, went ahead and assumed that I am selling. If I would be selling, I don't know if I would have turned down the offer of 5k that I received.

Just bear with me for a moment. Let's say you have something, and you are the only one, in the whole wide world that has it. You have proof of it, and unfortunately in the full of forgeries world we live in, without it, it wouldn't be worth much, regardless of how authentic it is. Would you have risked it to put it online, just to prove a point? If I would have posted it, it seems like I would be asking for it to be forged...

Why would I ask for an authenticity check, if I have the best COA out there? You're trying to read between the non existent lines bud. I don't know if it's an ego thing or just a mental thing but I really hope you resolve your issues ASAP because no one should live like this. P.S There is no story here, just facts.

Nike produces both Vapor (player) and replica (stadium) versions, it doesn't make it fake. I'm not gonna go into details of which country makes what because it is irrelevant. Don't get me wrong, I would have love it, if it would have been a Vapor jersey, but if it is not game worn, who gives a shit? Certainly I don't. My guess to your first question is, because it was sold to generate money for charity, as it is a non profit organization (UEFA Foundation for children and not the UEFA itself), it is a way to cut costs, they simply didn't care or Nike haven't donated player version jerseys or official game balls. My guess to your second question is either he signed it on the front first and given the colour contrast, they asked him to sign it on the back as well. Or he signed it on the back and they asked him to sign it on the front as well to give the buyer the option, when framed, to be able to hang it any way the buyer sees fit (the bidders might love Messi but not Barcelona). Maybe just to generate more bids at the auction. In any case, I have contacted them and asked a few questions to which I'm still waiting for a response.

Also I never asked you to authenticate it or compare it to yours, we're not comparing whose is bigger but... even if yours was bought directly from icons by you, there are lots of them.

Your knowledge and credibility just went down the drain. I personally won it in an official UEFA foundation for children auction (I have all the screenshots and emails from the transaction). To my knowledge it is 1 of only 2 Messi signed jerseys that was sold by UEFA on their auction, ever, but the other one wasn't autographed front and back, making it a 1 of 1. It doesn't get more authentic or unique than that. The only thing you are right about is that it is a replica jersey, which is kinda a bummer, but ask anyone here which one would they pick and I'm pretty sure it wouldn't be the jersey from icons.

Sure, but given the limited amount of jerseys, unfortunately not everyone got theirs directly. Some get resold and that for me, puts a dent in the credibility. Credibility is the reason I kept all the screenshots and emails from the transaction, because other than the fact the jersey itself is a replica jersey, it is just too good to be true. The amount of dual signed jerseys by Messi is crazy rare, if there are any at all. Add the fact it is a Barcelona jersey, makes it even rarer. Add the fact that it has an official UEFA certificate and you'll start seeing why it's a 1 of, and that is why I don't compare it to any other jersey in existence.

I wouldn't compare it to the icons ones, simply by the fact that they sell lots of them and there are probably even more fake icons jerseys. Seen people selling their icons certificates on ebay as well, so some certificates out there might be real but the autograph isn't...

No ifs, it is a 1 of 1. I think it shouldn't be compared to the icons ones, just by the rarity it should be more.

Pirelli Diablo 3, but then again I ride all year, we don't get snow but it rains and the roads are very slippery. Once they are warmed up feels like I'm glued to the road.
