Agreed -- beware of fake jerseys on kijiji. If you want to buy one that's fine but know that you're not getting a "deal" -- you're actually paying 3-4 times what the guy bought the jersey for because they are unlicensed knock-offs from China.

There's a difference between replica/authentic and fake/authentic. Replica jerseys are fine; some people splurge to get an authentic which is a step up in terms of quality. On the other hand, a fake jersey (i.e. unlicensed knock-off from China) is a far cry from an authentic/licensed one (i.e. that you can buy in stores).
