Does anyone know of a specific store that has the best prices for sports jerseys in the Seoul vicinity?

Not sure what kind of sports jerseys you're looking for, but if you're looking for pro stuff (NHL, NFL, NBA, MLB, ect), then there is a store across from the Hamilton in Itaewon. It's on the corner where Quiznos is.
I've purchased a few NHL jerseys there. 20,000W (or maybe 25,000W). Price tags still attached. Obviously ripped off from somewhere, but can't beat the price.
Edit: Just remembered that this store seems to close when the sun goes down (not making that up, but I don't ever remember it being open when it's been dark). If you end up checking it out, it'd be best to do so in the daytime.

Just went to that store! good stuff, prett cheap..... got a Steve Yzerman jersey.... the living God of Red Wings hockey! they had a few other Wings, but can't go wrong with the legend... Cool


Anyway, they had other good stuff there too.... pretty much NBA, NHL, NFL and MLB all pretty well covered. Somewhere, the Superfans are rejoicing... Laughing

For the super cheap prices, (in random piles that you have to sort through and no guarantee that you'll get what you're looking for) go to Heywha dong (Taehongno area) and find the big catholic church at the very end of the street (near the Heywha rotary) there's a Korean guy there that sells them for 10,000 per jersey on SUNDAYS ONLY. You'll know you found the right area when you see hundreds of Philippinos hanging around and shopping from the other street vendors from the Philippines.

I'm sure we can all agree that grown men who wear those things outside the context of a sporting event are at once hilarious and terrifying.

This place doesn't do lettering, they only sell the jerseys. If I remember correctly though, they do sell nameless jerseys, and it's just a matter of finding someone to do the lettering. I can't help you with that though, as I don't know any stores where that's done.
