1) Buy authentic jerseys, the name and number are sewn on, much better quality. These jerseys run by sizes such as 44, 50, 52 (not S, M, L, etc.).
2) NBA.com charges crazy shipping costs to Europe, DON'T SPEND THAT MONEY.
3) You can get the authentic jerseys (including shipping costs) on Ebay for way less than on NBA.com.
If you're sold on buying a replica (which uses sizes such as S and M), 50 is about a M/L. But the jerseys are a lot bigger. It also depends on how you like the jersey, if I use it for basketball it needs to be way bigger because I like to have my space in the shirt if I shoot.
I have bought A LOT of Ebay. Had problems once, and I got my money back. But the shipping costs to Europe (nba store) are through the roof.
When using ebay;
1) thoroughly look at their feedback
2) look at their location (I'd choose Europe or the US if I were you, try to avoid China as much as possible).
3) Use Paypal, they will track any cheating bastard down.

Thanks for the tips.
I planned to use PayPal and I always check the feedback. By the way,if size don't match how can I get my money back ? (if seller wrote that he accepts that).
What I need to do ?
Send a complaint to Paypal or what ?
Can you please describe me the procedure ?

I'm 6'3, 200 lbs. and I have a M/L jersey.
What do you mean by replica jerseys are a lot bigger ?
Lot bigger than what,authentic ?
And what's the difference between replica and authentic ?

1) If you've been ripped off on ebay just send a complaint to Paypal, they'll help you. But if the sizing is off, just contact the seller (via Ebay), about who pays for the shipping etc. I've never done that before tho.
2) Check my 'jerseys' thread.
3) The basketball jerseys are a lot bigger than regular shirts or jerseys in Europe. That's what I meant.
4) The quality of the jerseys is the difference. The letters and numbers on the authentic jerseys are sewn on, on the replica's they're screen printed. The sewn on ones last way longer. Screen prints fall off after a while.
Those are sewn on.
It's just not comparable IMO, the authentic ones are way better.
