The Football House

A lottt of people, myself included, are today years old learning about or just realising what has gone on with this Messi Panini sticker from 2005. It’s a mistake but not really (registration technicality issue), not AI or some weird edit, and while the Spanish flag is actually correct because in this set it’s to represent the club team nation - when you see it… 🫢🫢

Did some research and they are attainable on eBay starting from around $500 (ungraded), PSA 7 can get for below $1000, and PSA 10 will set you back around $4k. But to be honest especially as this little doozy inevitably goes viral it is only going one way fast 📈📈

Today we’ve gone through our eBay store and taken $5-$15 off the price of all football cards previously in the $50 and under bracket. That is by the way most of them, which all already were around or below comps 🙂

This is not a sale, a promo, or any kind of weird gimmick - just straight up doing as best we can as per, to bring some joy to the football fan world through collectible nostalgic type things best possible. While obviously we can’t just give everything away we ALWAYS, not just during a legit economic crisis, work within the scope of low-mid market price fairness and will always help buyers with a deal where we humanly are able 🤝

Unlike the Australian Government and its fuel supplies (LOLLL 🙃) we have many multiples of currently “active” kit and card stock level in our reserves and although around 100 items at a time is our ideal number, can continue to drop more into the store if demand requires. Hang in there homies, reach out via DM if anything we can do, and have a Happy Easter! 🐰🍫🐣

Local football is here again yay and we’re back on deck in support of the wonderful Burnie United FC 🤩🖤💛

Good luck to all our Burnie United teams playing this weekend. There has been a mountain of work done to get ready for the season ahead, not to mention organising players for teams. Welcome to all new and returning players to the club. Thank you to our coaches for the work you have done pre-season, the atmosphere around the Club is exciting to be a part of.

Quick call out we are looking for someone who is currently actively bulk buying general vintage & recent season sports bits, specifically Aussie related.

Found a stored box of stock (mostly afl, nrl, cricket), assorted teams from back when we were dealing with more generalised sports. A few regular retail/replica & player issue bits though more along the lines of training and leisure wear. All adults sizes and all excellent/near new conditions, a couple of bnwt.

Would be around 50 pieces total, maybe a little more. If you want some plain/template gear and/or shorts can also throw them in as freebies. $500 for the stock, so at the very most $10 per piece, and just split us 50/50 the shipping cost however you would like to receive it.

Fair market retail price is probably $35-$55 /piece on average, just don’t have the time or real need to be outside of football focused stuff now. If this sounds of interest please dm and we can send through some quick pics 🙂

Heya pals small piece of news just wanted to let everyone know that as of today some lil bonuses coming alongside TFH purchases 😇

With ANY kit cop, or any collectible card spend over $50, we will include some associated player or team cards as a freebie. These will be officially licensed cards such as Topps or Panini products, not like some random bs from nans old weetbix packets or a fan magazine 🫡

We’ve spent the summer beginning to curate a nice selection of cards - LOTS of standard base, inserts & autos & patches, specifically catering to the $100 and below budget which is where our focus will mostly be at this time.

Couple bits of todays outgoing mail a Liverpool Dri-Fit Adv Home shirt with some bonus Panini Prizm & Topps Merlin, and a Harry Kewell auto card with some OG Classic Kewell’s (Melb Heart, Socceroos & Liverpool) as bonus 😎

Hit our eBay store - uploading new kits and cards nearly every day! Appreciate the continued support 🙏⚽️ stores.ebay.com.au/thefootballhouse

A quick shoutout to the good brother Michael for hosting the Melbourne ‘No Warm Up Club’ pop-up event a couple of weekends back at Local Brewing Co Taproom, Clifton Hill 🙌

On short notice we were unable to make the trip over, though the guys were still willing and able to facilitate a kit setup on our behalf and took care of everything without a hitch. Thankyou, we really appreciate it and from all accounts was a great day. Hopefully next one soon! 🫡🙏

On Australia Day, celebrating the fact that the football shirt community in this country is SURELY the best in the world as a collective 😍🇦🇺

While there are still a number of bad actors and dodgy dealers on the selling side it feels like post pandemic has weeded most of them out slowly, and we are left with a group of active sellers who genuinely care about conducting business in a fair and ethical way which brings collectors new and old into the mix, allowing what is now pretty frequent pop-up/event type things to happen across the nation now at a pretty consistent rate 🙌

As has been mentioned before, 2026 is going to be a big year for collectors/buyers and as sellers everyone will have their work cut out. Luxury spending is lower for most people, but this is a huge positive for the space overall (prices will have to be lowered) and will make sure both sides of the coin can continue to work in tandem to grow the love for football shirts and the history and stories they tell.

Lowkey the BEST part of a strong local group that generally unites at these events and online, is that other international companies (namely you-know-who) have not been able to just swoop in and put any type of mark on the place, let alone monopolise it as am sure they would have liked. Sorry but here people won’t have the wool pulled over their eyes and be made to believe shirts are worth twice as much for half the condition when it’s just not the truth. $500+ Umbro England shirts from the 90s is a prime example and all the marketing money and social media cringe viral content in the world I don’t think will ever change how we feel about that 🤗

Hope everyone had a great Australia Day and got to watch or participate in some football today! 🫡⚽️
