The short version
Links to eBay go straight to the listing or search, with no affiliate tracking. We earn nothing from them.
Every “View on eBay” and “See all current listings” link goes straight to the listing or search on eBay, with no affiliate or tracking code added. No seller, maker, team or marketplace pays us for placement. If that ever changes, for example if we join an affiliate program, we will update this page and label the links before they go live.
How outbound links are marked
Links to eBay open in a new tab and carry rel="nofollow noopener". That tells search engines we aren't vouching for an individual listing, and stops the new tab from controlling this one.
Buying picks and listing snapshots
On launch collections, the “Buying guide” picks and the “Live on eBay right now” listings come from a dated review of the active eBay listings for that team, era and garment. Picks weigh the delivered price against the typical asking range, the condition and era markers the listing shows (tag, print, measurements, flaws), and the seller's feedback. Overpriced listings and sellers we would double-check carry warnings. Sellers cannot pay to be picked. Each snapshot is dated, and some listings will have ended by the time you read it. The methodology explains how picks are made.
AI-generated collection photos
Collection pages and cards may show a representative product photo generated by an AI image model from real seller photos of that kind of piece. Where it appears large it is labelled as such. It is not a photo of any listing, it is not an official team product shot, and the piece you buy will look different. Judge condition and authenticity from the seller's own photos. See the methodology.
Team names and marks
Secondhand Archive is an independent guide to secondhand clothing. It is not affiliated with, sponsored or endorsed by the National Football League, NFL Properties, any NFL team, or any apparel maker named on this site. Team names are used only to describe vintage merchandise that was made and sold under license at the time. We don't reproduce team logos; the color blocks and monograms on this site are our own illustrations.
Selling to us
This site is part of allbutnew. The “Have one to sell?” links go to allbutnew's shared offer form. If you send details of a piece, someone from allbutnew replies by email with an offer or a straight no. You are free to sell it anywhere else until you accept.
Returns, refunds and disputes
Purchases happen on eBay, between you and the seller. We are not a party to the transaction. Returns, refunds, item-not-as-described claims and shipping disputes go through eBay's buyer protection: contact the seller first, then open a request on eBay if they don't resolve it.
Privacy
We use Vercel Analytics to see which pages readers find useful. It is cookieless and does not follow individual readers across sites. eBay sets its own cookies once you are on eBay; its policies apply there.
