Are you a fan of Igor Shesterkin, the renowned Russian ice hockey goaltender for the New York Rangers? If so, you may want to get your hands on an official Shesterkin jersey to support your favorite player. While finding authentic NHL merchandise outside North America can be challenging, platforms like Tmall (via China-based proxy service ACbuy) make it possible to purchase genuine hockey jerseys with ease.

Why Choose ACbuy for Your Shesterkin Jersey Purchase?

ACbuy (acbuy.cn) is a popular Chinese purchasing agent that helps international buyers access restricted Chinese e-commerce platforms like Tmall, JD.com, and Taobao. Their platform overcomes language barriers, provides consolidated shipping, and even assists with customer service. Compared to other proxy buying services, ACbuy offers competitive fees and a transparent tracking system.

According to feedback on shipping forums, international hockey fans particularly praise ACbuy's ability to source premium jerseys and sports equipment due to their direct ties with official Tmall stores.

Authenticity Verification

When collecting official NHL merchandise from China, be aware of these authentication markers:

• NHL Shield embroidery quality should be crisp without loose threads
• Fight strap stitching for authentic pro jerseys (replicas often lack this)
• Adidas branding on the collar and jock tag (for current season jerseys)

ACbuy provides extra photos of the physical product before finalizing shipments, which helps buyers verify item legitimacy compared to markets like DHGate which occasionally sell counterfeit versions.

Pricing and Shipping Insights

As of this writing, Igor Shesterkin jerseys on Tmall via ACbuy range from ¥560-880 (approx. $75-120 USD) plus shipping, substantially cheaper than North American retailers whose pricing typically starts at $180+. Shipping costs vary by weight and destination - expect to pay:

Destination	Estimated Shipping Fee	Transit Time
United States	$25-35	10-14 working days
European Union	€35-45	12-18 working days

Consider bundling purchases with friends to reduce per-unit shipping costs—ACbuy supports package consolidation at their Shenzhen warehouse (14-day free storage). Monitoring their seasonal sales (especially around China's June 18 shopping festival) can yield additional savings.

Alternative Marketplace Channels

If the preferred jersey version isn't available on Tmall when you check, try searching these alternatives through ACbuy:

• 180cmfan Store (specializes in sports jerseys)
• Fan Century Flagship Store (verified NHL collaborator)
• SZH Express (sells game-worn replicas)

Learn to input product codes like AXJ563 for direct searches when suppliers temporarily remove fan jersey listings to comply with export regulations.
