A pound each
The only problem is according to each shirt we are now known as Chrystal Palacey

A lot of them are indistinguishable from the 'authentic' jerseys except maybe the fit, the original jerseys normally come in a players fit & a 'normal persons fit' They are all done by cut & sew so it's just a case of printing off the front & back of the shirt on polyester using Dye Sublimation then sewing them together then adding a badge either by DTF or in some cases an embroidered patch which is heat applied.
I have a wholesaler in the South Bronx who can make them but they usually stick to basketball & baseball jerseys.
I've sold them myself for around 40 bucks (cost 15) & sell like wild fire at El Classico or USA games, Ideal if you don't want to spend big bucks & are only going to wear it for say the duration of a competion

If I don't think the shirt is nice enough to pay full whack, I'll buy from DHGate and bin it at the end of the season. The shirts are often indistinguishable apart from sizing. One season, I bought one where the crest was embroidered, while the genuine one was printed on. That was the only difference.
Can you start taking orders please 😉
This reminds me of those awful pirate programmes that used to be sold outside the ground many years ago. There would be a photo of a football match on the front cover that had nothing to do with Palace or the opposition. Inside there'd an attempt to guess the line ups and then a couple items that bore no relation to the match being played.

I’m intrigued Pete, I must have missed these, or if it was before 74/75 it was before my time
I first came across them in the 60s but they existed before then. At some point they died a death but I'm not quite sure when - probably when people got wised up to them. By 74/75 they may well have disappeared.
Here's an example. Spurs v Portsmouth with a photo of a game featuring neither of the sides involved

I see what you mean, I had a look on eBay myself out of curiosity, I thought they might actually have been going for more now if they’re a bit rare, but not so

There was an oriental lady who used to come around pub beer gardens on matchday with a huge satchel of "Deeeveeedee". You could get 3 just-released filums for £5.

There used to be a Vietnamese man who came round pubs around Smithfield who struggled with a rucksack full of dvds which he could barely lift, he had hundreds of them and his sales talk was great.
