Anyone selling new US Postal cycling shorts?

Please let me know if anyone is selling US Postal cycling shorts that are new and would ship from the US. I would need them shipped before August 5th. Thanks!

Wanderer,
Not sure if you were being patronizing, but thanks for the link. I would never post on a bike forum until I had done an exhuastive internet search first.The key here is finding someone who will ship the product to the US in a short period of time as I am leaving the country. I did in fact visit the site you posted already a few days ago and came across this in the FAQ: How long will my custom jersey take?The cycling jerseys usually take about 10-16 days to arrive.

livedarklions,
Not sure how that's relevant to anything in my post other than that I am buying US Postal shorts. But okay, thanks for your help?

This is a forum for people to discuss cycling and things related to cycling. We're not personal shoppers.

Well you did post on cycling discussions where snarkasm is the norm. I think most are just trying to be funny and the few who are just being mean probably wouldn't say it to your face. At any rate, good luck with your search.

Koyote,
Ah, got it. I thought people on a bike forum would maybe be helpful with my inquiry as the shorts are cycling shorts, which is related to cycling, and the people on here are interested in cycling. I guess I was mistaken. Thanks for taking the time out of your day to respond even though you made it clear you weren't a personal shopper.

Texaspandj,
Ya, I guess I was overly optimistic. Thanks.

Honestly, I thought that you, perhaps, needed a direction to start looking. Therefore, the link to a pair.

With a little more info in the OP, I would have left it alone.

No snarkism intended.

That shop is awesome. Really friendly and they said I could have ridden one of Lance's actual bikes around the shop. I was too nervous at the time but it would have been kinda cool maybe some of that EPO would come off onto me and make me faster...LOLOLOLOL

Pretty sure jokes are allowed, and the USPS PED connection would seem to not need spelling out, but thanks for something?

BTW, anyone know where I can get a Shoeless Joe Jackson jersey?

Oh jokes are definitely allowed. It's just it wasn't helpful in answering my question. After having a whole day to come up with a joke, I'm honestly pretty disappointed in the Joe Jackson effort. I would expect more. Anyway, sorry you couldn't be more help with my search. All the best.

​​​In case you missed the point of the jokes, guess I need to make it clear that helping you commemorate that particular organized crime enterprise was not anything I was aiming at.

This isn't Craigslist, you bring up the USPS Team in a cycling forum, don't be surprised when you get some strong negative reactions. BTW, expect some similar comments if you wear it in public.

Nah, I'd make the same jokes to his face if I saw him wearing it. I'd also figure there's a 50-50 chance he was being ironic. My friends and I had an in-joke that we were the Rosie Ruiz Athletic Club.

I saw a middle aged pot bellied guy riding just a few days ago sporting a USPS jersey. I am allowed to use that description since it matches me pretty closely, especially with the pounds I’ve gained due to staying home depressed by the current state of the world. Regards.

Hahahaha, classic. No explanation was necessary, but glad you made the effort to lay it all out there.
