About Shirt Circle
Shirt Circle is a marketplace where collectors buy and sell match-worn, match-issued and signed football shirts directly with each other. It is built and run from the Netherlands and open to buyers and sellers across Europe.
Why it exists
Shirt Circle was started by two collectors. We bought and sold match-worn and signed shirts ourselves, on the general marketplaces everyone uses, and kept running into the same limits: no place for the evidence that makes a shirt what it is, no protection built around a shirt changing hands, and no community of people who care about the same details. So we built the platform we were looking for.
We are growing, shirt by shirt and collector by collector, with one goal: to become the platform for football fans who collect.
How trust works here
- Seller evidence, shown in full
- Authenticity claims and evidence are provided by the seller. Shirt Circle does not authenticate items. Every listing shows what the seller claims and the evidence behind it, from photo matches to certificates and signing photos, so you judge the shirt on what is actually there. Our guide to buying safely explains what to look for.
- Payments held until delivery
- Payments are processed and held by Stripe. Shirt Circle never holds your money. The seller is paid after the parcel arrives and the buyer’s protection window closes, and a reported problem pauses that release.
- Tracked shipping on every sale
- Each sale comes with a prepaid tracked label and a shipping deadline. Both sides follow the parcel from the order page.
- Clear rules, written down
- What happens when a shirt is not as described, when a parcel is late, or when a claim is disputed is set out in advance: Buyer Protection Policy, Seller Policy and Authenticity & Evidence Policy.
