Top 3 Tips for Buying an NBA Jersey Online
Buying an NBA jersey online in Australia for the first time can be a minefield for the inexperienced online shopper.
The truth is, with a little knowledge, buying your next NBA jersey online from Australia is quick and easy, but there are a few ‘rules’ you need to follow to ensure you get the best deal. Here are 3 important tips for buying an NBA jersey online in Australia.
Tip No. # 1: compare prices
The shopping window that has become on the Internet is getting better by the day, and online stores are putting a lot of effort on “pretty to look at” websites. This is all great, but do they really offer you the best deal?
You can answer this question by making sure to shop around. This is no different than buying from different stores or supermarkets, it is only online and road easier!
When buying an NBA jersey online in Australia, do not automatically assume that the official NBA website or official team page will offer you the best deal. There are literally hundreds of online retailers selling NBA jerseys at different prices, so take advantage of the competition and find the best deal.
Tip No. # 2: check freight costs
One of the biggest barriers to buying your next NBA jersey online can be the cost of freight. Postage to Australia from the US can be expensive, especially when buying large quantities or bulky items.
Before you go crazy and load your shopping cart, check that:
a) the retailer does ship to Australia, and
b) what are the costs
You may find that a particular retailer does not satisfy either or both, so you have to move on to the next retailer.
Tip No. 3: check a return policy
Particularly when purchasing a garment like an NBA jersey, there is nothing worse than receiving it only to have to return it because it is the wrong size. Although returning an item can be straightforward, the problem is more the hassle (and the extra wait).
Although this should be a given, make sure there is a strong return policy in place, particularly the costs, if any (for example, the cost of shipping for you to send the item back) that you will have to pay for.
A good way to avoid the possibility of this happening is to check the size chart for each NBA jersey you buy. Most good online retailers will include a size chart for different items and manufacturers. It is also in their best interest to do so, as they want to avoid a returns process as much as you do.
