They usually retail anywhere from $250 for $400 for a higher quality one; the ones at Michaels are cheaper but they're pretty small IIRC (especially if you're trying to display a full goalie cut jersey).

If you're looking to save some $, what I would recommend is building one yourself. You can buy plexiglass at a place like Home Depot or Rona; use a lightweight MDF for the backing and primed mdf for the sides and front. Add a hinge on one side and a latch on the other side, some black paint, and voila, you've got a custom jersey case.

The one benefit is that you can make it as big as you want (just depends on what size plexiglass you buy). I built one a long time ago and it was about 38x42 and I believe it ended up costing about $75 to $100 in materials. A cheaper way to do it is to buy a poster frame from Michaels when they go on sale (about $15 to $20) and use that plexiglass for your frame. It's quite thin and I think the biggest size is 28x40 but it'll do the trick.
