Questions from a Jersey Virgin

No, I'm not a virgin from New Jersey, I've just never spent the big bucks on an NFL jersey. Don't ask me why...regardless, I really want a Sean Taylor jersey, but I'm kind of confused at all the options.

I see the "authentic" jerseys that go for like $250, which just seems absurd to me. There's also the replica jerseys for around $60, which seems like a reasonable deal. Then there's the stuff on eBay which runs anywhere from $20 to $600 for an autographed, game-worn jersey.

Does anyone have any tips or advice? Given that ST may leave the team in a couple years, like everyone else has, I'm not inclined to drop $100+. Are the replicas really cheap or chintzy, or are they a decent deal?
