Problem is people are comparing the fakes to authentics (which run in the $300+ range). These are the same jerseys which the players wear on ice.
In reality, no one buys the real authentics. At least I don't know anyone with one. I don't even really know where to buy them other than special order. None of the retailers like Sport Chek or Jersey City carry them as a stock item.
The comparison should be verses the replica jerseys which always retail for about $129 with no cresting, or about $225 with cresting.
As others have mentioned, you can always find them for cheaper. You can get these online at Costco right now.

$149 for an Premier Adult Reebok replica is more than reasonable.
