Package is on sale right now on GilsArena.com. We’ll provide updates for the next hour or so because we are crazy like that even though it is 3 AM here on the West Coast.
Want to read the updates?
As of this post, there are 1500 personalized $25 packages available. Good luck! Packages were actually on sale about 5 minutes early.
10 minutes later, about 1000 packages available now
20 minutes later, about 850 packages available, however, it is on hold right now due to “overwhelming demand”. For those who can’t find it, check the Auctions section of the site. If you are having problems logging in, it seems to allow you to buy the package after you try logging in, even if you get an error.
30 minutes later, the system is back up. 700 available. Interesting note, (3) $150 package, which are not personalized, have been sold, even though the $25 package is still available.
40 minutes later, less than 500 available for the $25 package. It will be interesting to see how many of the $150 non-personalized package is sold after the early bird one sells out which looks like will be within the next 30 minutes. Keep in mind the price does not include shipping and handling. They say you will be billed later for it.
50 minutes later, 360 available. Gilbert mentioned in his blog that special numbers will get special prizes, such as the first 3 purchases to get an Agent Zero All-Star jersey. Who will get the last package? Some people seem to be having problems not seeing the package for sale. You need to either refresh your browser, close your browser and reload the page, or clear your cache. Another question people have been asking is do you only get one shoe or two? From the picture and description it seems like only 1 but the retail value of $90 suggests both pairs. I guess those who ordered the package will have to wait and see.
We are 1 hour in and less than 300 available. Who’s ready for the playoffs? If you have a story about your Gilbert Arenas package adventure, feel free to leave a comment.
70 minutes in and 230 available. At this pace, the packages will last about another 30 minutes. I guess we’ll stick around until the package sells out!
80 minutes in and less than 200 available. Hurry and buy the packages so I can sleep! Can’t sleep? Discuss the package, playoffs, or anything else in the comments section.
90 minutes have now passed. 150 left. Not sure if they will sending to the address registered on GilArenas.com or PayPal but I’m thinking it will be PayPal.
100 minutes and less than 100 left. If you want the package, now is the time to buy. Looks like it’ll be sold out before 5 AM PST/8 AM EST. A question to ponder while waiting for the package to sell out. Will everyone get the same shoe size?
110 minutes and we are down to 50 early bird packages. Special thanks to those who stayed up all the way and provided help and comments. As mentioned in the comments, who else would do this for their fans? Hopefully, all the true fans who woke up bright and early got their package. Looking forward to hearing your stories when you wake back up 
2 hours and we are down to less than 25. If you missed the early bird package because you were too busy partying the night before or for whatever other reason (which could not possibly be as important as this), the late bird package is still available for $150 $100. The retail value of the shoes and jersey alone would be $165 so the package is still a great deal considering you get 2 autographs from Mr. Hibachi himself, Gilbert Arenas.
2 hours and 3 minutes and the early bird package deal is now sold out. Congrats to everyone that managed to get one!
Update: Maybe Gilbert will have to personalize 2,012 jerseys. The confirmation page shows -12 total packages remaining.
ORDER CONFIRMATION PAGE
Agent 0 Collectors Package
• One (1) Personalized Swingman Gilbert Arenas Jersey (size 2XL), valued at $75.00
• One (1) Autographed GilZero Signature Basketball Shoe, valued at $90.00
Total Packages Remaining: -12
Price: $25 (this does not include shipping and handling)
(THIS DOES NOT INCLUDE SHIPPING AND HANDLING. YOU WILL BE BILLED SHIPPING AND HANDLING AT A LATER DATE.)
I’m sorry we are sold out
Well folks, its been fun. The packages lasted a lot longer than I expected. An average of about 16 packages sold per minute.
Update: 5 hours later it looks as if the Late Bird package has gone from $150 to $100. There’s still plenty left. Remember this is for charity and Gilbert’s foundation so the money is going to a good cause.

Try refreshing or reloading your browser
IC // Apr 21, 2007 at 2:42 am
any idea how much shipping and handling will be?
Shawn // Apr 21, 2007 at 2:43 am
i did i cant find it do u click auction? please iv beenu p since 3 am
questions // Apr 21, 2007 at 2:43 am
do you know if 2XL is the only size the jersey was in, or did they offer other sizes earlier?
was the auction up at exactly 6:00?
thanks
Steve // Apr 21, 2007 at 2:44 am
this may be the most poorly organized thing I’ve ever taken part in…up since 2:30 A.M. and cannot get to the auction…
IC // Apr 21, 2007 at 2:44 am
if the auction still shows as coming spring 07, just close the browser n open the page again. took me like 20min to realize it wasnt refreshing. =(
somer wysoske // Apr 21, 2007 at 2:46 am
I agree i cannot get into anything.
gilbertology // Apr 21, 2007 at 2:47 am
2XL is the only size for the personalized option. If you want another size, you could order the $150, non-personalized package.
The auction was up a few minutes earlier than 6 AM EST.
Owen // Apr 21, 2007 at 2:48 am
Yea man i can’t get into it either. i keep refreshing, signing out, and refreshing my browser
gilbertology // Apr 21, 2007 at 2:48 am
If you still can’t see it after closing the page and reloading, you probably need to clear your browser’s cache or try using a different browser (such as Internet Explorer or Firefox).
Steve // Apr 21, 2007 at 2:48 am
I have closed and reopened this page about 30 times and can get nothing….I am so frustrated right now….
d // Apr 21, 2007 at 2:50 am
i found out the problem. it worked for me when i downloaded the latest flash player. goodluck.
thanks, gil. the flash on your official website was/is stuffing up on and off.
Shawn // Apr 21, 2007 at 2:51 am
ok every1 breath i jus got it keep refreshing gilbert has an arrow goin up to it saying auction in progress bc therei sso much ppl its gettin crazy so u have to chill i jus checked there is 385 left dont panic and i had a question LT when it said name for gil to personalize do u put arenas?
IC // Apr 21, 2007 at 2:51 am

Shawn // Apr 21, 2007 at 2:52 am
same man stupid firefox lol i was like gagging
so its all good man we got it
anik // Apr 21, 2007 at 2:53 am
Its funny that people are still complaining about a DONATION. I was complaning too, scroll up a bit and you’ll see it. I guess I got caught up int he hype.
I havent slept all night just to be awake for this, however around 4 30 i dozed off, my mom walked in and said “did you get it?” and i said “NO what time is it” and she yelled 7, and i said F*CK(in my head), but what we both didnt know her clock was an hour fast, I got on my computer and the time was 6:03. Anyway, I dont know why I told this story, just had to get it off my shoulders.
Here are steps to getting your eary bird collectors package.
If you have registered or logged in, and it has said undefinded, do not worry, juss open the auctions page and WAIT for the ‘check availability’ buttons to appear, it took me about 10-15 seconds for them to appear.
Click on them and follow the directions there in.
If anybody has any further problems, let me know, I’ll answer back as soon as possible.
And Steve, you need to relax. Lets see you organize something this big, im not on gilbert d*ck so dont say I am, but that kind of disrespect is uncalled for.
gilbertology // Apr 21, 2007 at 2:54 am
Shawn – you should put your name to personalize.
Gilbert will personzlie it to you.
Shawn // Apr 21, 2007 at 2:54 am
oh man i feel stupid i put Arenas cuz i wanted it his last name to the back oh man
gilbertology // Apr 21, 2007 at 2:55 am
Thanks anik for the help
Shawn // Apr 21, 2007 at 2:55 am
is it ok that i put arenas?
gilbertology // Apr 21, 2007 at 2:58 am
Sure if you don’t mind it saying something like:
To Arenas,
Gilbert Arenas
anik // Apr 21, 2007 at 2:58 am
haha no problem.
Wow playoffs start in 5 hours, and I havent slept.
P.S theres exaclty 314 left….
Shawn // Apr 21, 2007 at 2:58 am
gilbertology? like will it have Arenas on the back?
gilbertology // Apr 21, 2007 at 3:00 am
You can try and emailing the Zero 2 Hero foundation (contact info can be found in your receipt email). Explain the situation and be sure to include your transaction ID (also in the email)
somer wysoske // Apr 21, 2007 at 3:02 am
Since I have the slowest computer ever would anyone be willing to order me a package and I will send you the money for it?
Shawn // Apr 21, 2007 at 3:03 am
lalright thanks for all ur help gilbertoglogy by the way gil wentto high school with mi brother wev playedb asketball withe achother jus so every 1 should know lol
anik // Apr 21, 2007 at 3:04 am
I really doubt anybody is going to fall for that.
If you really have a slow computer, just try. The rush has seem to have died down. Even on the slowest damn computer it wont take you even a couple minutes to load the page. Just try.
anik // Apr 21, 2007 at 3:05 am
Shawn, you played basketball with Gilbert? Or your brother?
and I dont believe it, nope.
gilbertology // Apr 21, 2007 at 3:05 am
I’m pretty sure it will be Arenas on the back. It is just his Swingman jersey from Addias that you can buy at places like Adidas.com for $75.
somer wysoske // Apr 21, 2007 at 3:07 am
I have tried reloading about 12 times and it is the slowest ever one word dial up.
Steve // Apr 21, 2007 at 3:07 am
OK…for those that still cannot get in…download a new browswer such as Firefox…I did this and got in instantly…it seems some browsers will not allow access to the auction…AOL did not for me…this is the best solution right not..but time is running out so hurry…good luck and thank you Gilbert for this awesome deal…
Shawn // Apr 21, 2007 at 3:08 am
anik i did he went to gran t high school with mi brother
somer wysoske // Apr 21, 2007 at 3:09 am
I was just checking to see if anyone would they could keep the package until they got the money I was not expecting some to send me the package before they got the money.
Owen // Apr 21, 2007 at 3:09 am
can you order more then one?
anik // Apr 21, 2007 at 3:11 am
Wow, thats amazing.
Anyway, we all have to agree my “collectors package adventure story” is the best
, come on, fell asleep woke up being told it was 7 and I missed it, look at the clock and it says 6:02 and check my cell just to recheck, wow amazing.
I deserve an academy award or something, wait thats for acting, whats one for story telling?
I ATLEAST deserve the honors of being shouted out on the gilsarena page haha
Shawn // Apr 21, 2007 at 3:12 am
haha but u guyz gotta admit this is an awesome deal this guys great i dont see nebody else doin this lol
anik // Apr 21, 2007 at 3:12 am
…and now I cant sleep at all or Ill miss the toronto and njn game, the biggest and best first round matchup in history.
Steve // Apr 21, 2007 at 3:12 am
anik…you are right…this is huge..i was just frustrated because my browser was not allowing access…once I used a different browswer it was fine…everything is good now…and you should be on Gilbert’s…well you know…cause he’s the man!!!!LOL
anik // Apr 21, 2007 at 3:13 am
Yeah it is awesome, I read that he wanted to make it free, but his foundation insisted to get some money out of it.
Either way, great deal.
d // Apr 21, 2007 at 3:13 am
gilbert is indeed doing a good job for his foundation and for his fans. i wish you a speedy recovery, gil.
p.s., don’t try to comeback if you still feel discomfort. the knee might aggravate you and your career later on.
Steve // Apr 21, 2007 at 3:14 am
the jersey alone…unsigned is valued at 75 and he only wants 25 for the whole package…unbelievable
anik // Apr 21, 2007 at 3:14 am
damn, sorry if it feels like im filling this section up with comments, as soon as i hit submit someone else replies so yeah sorry.
and yeah im sorry for being sort of hars, dont worry, I was frustrated a bit too. Its not easy stayin up all night and tolerating a slow computer.
Steve // Apr 21, 2007 at 3:15 am
it’s all good…i just hope that all the true gil fans get through and are able to take advantage of this deal…good luck guys
anik // Apr 21, 2007 at 3:16 am
I wonder is gilbert arenas has msn,
anik // Apr 21, 2007 at 3:16 am
if**
Gregg // Apr 21, 2007 at 3:17 am
I bought the first one and forgot to personalized.
So i went back to grab another that I personalized.
Should I keep both or try to cancel the first one?
Shawn // Apr 21, 2007 at 3:17 am

Gregg // Apr 21, 2007 at 3:17 am
anik: I too must stay awake for Raptors-Nets game!
Steve // Apr 21, 2007 at 3:17 am
probably not..gilbert said on his blog that he doesnt even type his own entries..he tells someone else what to type…LOL..he probably stays clear of the net as much as possible..can’t blame him either…look what online frustration was about to do to us…hahaha
anik // Apr 21, 2007 at 3:18 am
Man, I coud’ve bought the first one, just I thought you had to log on, dammit, couldve got an allstar jersey too:|, i would die for that.
Steve // Apr 21, 2007 at 3:19 am
what time do the nets/raptors tip off?
anik // Apr 21, 2007 at 3:19 am
Yeah thats true, but imagine a conversation with gil, it would be so unbelievable.
Anik: Sup gil?
Gilbert Arenas : chillin, you?
Anik: Gonna go work on my shot, wanna give me some pointers?
anik // Apr 21, 2007 at 3:20 am
dammit (Sorry for so much posts)
raps and nets tip off at 12 30 eastern
Gregg // Apr 21, 2007 at 3:20 am
let’s all hope he gives out all-star jerseys to random numbers… and some of us get one! i didn’t wake up in time, i woke up at 5:30 but when back to sleep until 6:30
Steve // Apr 21, 2007 at 3:20 am
so we can catch a little sleep….
anik // Apr 21, 2007 at 3:21 am
I would sleep, but I know I’ll never wake up, Which is exaclty why I didnt sleep and try to wake up at 6.
gilbertology // Apr 21, 2007 at 3:22 am
anik – don’t worry about the mass comments. keep them coming! some people can’t sleep and need to keep entertained some way.
What will happen first, 100 comments or the package selling out?
Owen // Apr 21, 2007 at 3:22 am
do you think there will be a special prize for the last package?
d // Apr 21, 2007 at 3:22 am
100 comments
anik // Apr 21, 2007 at 3:23 am
Ha, I guess the ‘fans’ couldnt get up that early.
Gregg // Apr 21, 2007 at 3:23 am
100 comments, it seems like the rate is picking up on the package though…
somer wysoske // Apr 21, 2007 at 3:23 am
I see the auction now but when I get to the login part I just get a blank book any help with that.
Steve // Apr 21, 2007 at 3:23 am
well guys…it’s been fun…for those who have not gotten a package yet..keep trying…it does work…anik and company enjoy the game…chris bosh vs. Vince is gonna be phenominal….and thanks for all the posts that helped us come together and figure this “mystery auction” out…I’m gonna go catch a little sleep and watch the game later…thanks again and stay safe.
Gregg // Apr 21, 2007 at 3:25 am
wondering 4 people panicked and selected the $150 by mistake when there were plenty of $25 left… oh well, all for charity anyways
Steve // Apr 21, 2007 at 3:25 am
somer…no need to login..just go to auction…click on “check availabilty” and follow the instructions from there…you should be good
anik // Apr 21, 2007 at 3:25 am
Thank you, another vince fan. I live in toronto and hate toronto fans, their so short termed.
Anyway I made alot of bets on this series, NJN all the way.
lois // Apr 21, 2007 at 3:26 am
dammit the site is so crammed, i can’t even get in!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Gregg // Apr 21, 2007 at 3:26 am
anik: ewww Wince Carter!
anik // Apr 21, 2007 at 3:26 am
No, Cregg, I doubt it. Those four people probably dont want it personalized so they can sell it on ebay.
anik // Apr 21, 2007 at 3:27 am
Ha, vince is amazing. Okay hes not the best player, neither is he my favourite. But I have got to admit he is the best dunker in the nba.
And his skill isnt so bad either.
d // Apr 21, 2007 at 3:27 am
mystery package story
i was checking the site 10 mins before 3am pacific. i kept refreshing on and off, nothing happens for the past 40 mins. i kept trying, still nothing. i downloaded the updated flash player and it finally work. i was really hoping to be the top 3 in the auction. as long as i get a personalized autograph, then it’s still worth it
Owen // Apr 21, 2007 at 3:28 am
Anyone trying to get the very last package to see if it is something special?
anik // Apr 21, 2007 at 3:29 am
Is gilbertology really Gilbert. He keeps reffering to Gilbert as ‘he’ or ‘him’, but sometimes he says ‘I’. Just wondering because I want to know if he actually said my name
d // Apr 21, 2007 at 3:30 am
i dont think the last one is special. im sure the first 3 are, though.
unless he stated that last one would get a bonus, then don’t go for it.
Gregg // Apr 21, 2007 at 3:31 am
I don’t see how Gilbert is going to personalize all the jerseys. I mean, he said he was signing autographs already… so he has to go back and personalize each one?
anik: Carter has the skills but what he did to Toronto was unforgettable/unforgivable.
somer wysoske // Apr 21, 2007 at 3:32 am
Thanks for your help Steve I got through after trying for a hour but it was worth it Good luck to the Wizards in the playoffs but I will miss seeing Gilbert and Caron out there.
anik // Apr 21, 2007 at 3:32 am
I agree, but you cant force someone to play where he does not want to play.
but some of the stuff he said, I agree, it crossed the line.
somer wysoske // Apr 21, 2007 at 3:34 am
Good question on how he will personalize them.
anik // Apr 21, 2007 at 3:36 am
Man, this all nigher is killing me. Im still waiting till this auction is done though.
Gregg // Apr 21, 2007 at 3:38 am
Yeah, maybe personalize may mean something else? like a letter that comes with it? lol
Gregg // Apr 21, 2007 at 3:39 am
the package is approaching the final 100!
anik // Apr 21, 2007 at 3:39 am
Oh yeah, gilbert had a big announcement to make?
He said saturday or sunday, its saturday now, So why not now?:P
let us be the first to know.
Owen // Apr 21, 2007 at 3:42 am
im assuming whatever he has to announce he’ll do tomorrow because thats when the game is
anik // Apr 21, 2007 at 3:44 am
What if in reality he was never injured and its all a big hoax. What if hes really been underground training to kick lebrons ass.
And tommorow his announcement is that hes actually going to play, and hes going to score 60 on the cavs.
LOL, man lack of sleep could really do this to you.
Gregg // Apr 21, 2007 at 3:44 am
maybe another giveaway of 4,000,000 jerseys?!
anik // Apr 21, 2007 at 3:45 am
Were at 85….
and Gil, I better my shoe size
, I’m an 11 just incase you want to make a note or whatever haha, just kidding.
d // Apr 21, 2007 at 3:45 am
4million. he probably meant 4million hits on his website.
anik // Apr 21, 2007 at 3:50 am
Were at around 50….
Mark // Apr 21, 2007 at 3:52 am
I just checked and there are 69 packages still left. Surely that is wrong? I guess people are having trouble with their browsers. I know mine didn’t show the auction at first I had to refresh. I’m running firefox by the way.
anik // Apr 21, 2007 at 3:54 am
Will there be a prize for the best story?
Damn, all we look for is prizes and rewards. Oh well, I want mine haha
Anique (still anik) // Apr 21, 2007 at 3:56 am
Mark, there are around 40 packages left, not 60. And Im sorry I am not running firefox, however scroll up a bit there are a couple of tips for people running firefox.
gilbertology // Apr 21, 2007 at 3:58 am
there may or may not be a prize.
bert // Apr 21, 2007 at 4:02 am
at first i was thinking we would get a personalized jersey meaning it would say agent on the back inseatd of arenas but ehh idk anymore im confused and stayed up all night for this and now i gotta stay up and watch the raptors vs nets.
Anique (still anik) // Apr 21, 2007 at 4:02 am
down to 17
Gregg // Apr 21, 2007 at 4:03 am
$150 packages can now choose jersey size
Gregg // Apr 21, 2007 at 4:03 am
do you think Gilbert chose to use XXL as collectors so it’ll be harder to sell? because not too many ppl are XXL
Anique (still anik) // Apr 21, 2007 at 4:04 am
Actually XXL are pretty small. Well atleast for me but im around 6’5 and pretty skinny. They down seem to get MUCH longer, but to extend in width. And plus I think if anything XXL will be easier to sell, itll look more authentic then a smaller jersey would.
gilbertology // Apr 21, 2007 at 4:05 am
sold out!
Anique (still anik) // Apr 21, 2007 at 4:05 am
i meant dont ** …sorry havent slept
Anique (still anik) // Apr 21, 2007 at 4:05 am
Congrats Gilber on the jersey auction, it was great. And thank youuuu
lois // Apr 21, 2007 at 4:06 am
dammit, i never even got into the site!!!
Gregg // Apr 21, 2007 at 4:06 am
Yea, that is true… either way it’s cool to have a jersey plus autographed by Gilbert himself too
d // Apr 21, 2007 at 4:06 am
something is wrong. i see -7 package for some reason
Anique // Apr 21, 2007 at 4:07 am
I see -8.
Anique // Apr 21, 2007 at 4:07 am
I see -8.
d // Apr 21, 2007 at 4:08 am
total packages remaining is -10 now. what is going to happen to those people, gilbertology?
Owen // Apr 21, 2007 at 4:08 am
now its up to -10
Mark // Apr 21, 2007 at 4:08 am
I think everytime someone clicks to check the availability the number automatically goes down by one. Since there are none left it’s going into negatives
Anique // Apr 21, 2007 at 4:09 am
I think when it was down to like 5 or whatever, sone people were already at the buy now section of the site and stalled. And other people just got there before them, know what I mean?
Owen // Apr 21, 2007 at 4:11 am
yea i feel you. he prolly wont care anyway and sign 10 or 15 more
Mark // Apr 21, 2007 at 4:12 am
I got mine! Anyone have an idea how much shipping will be? I’m in Canada at the moment but I may wanna get it sent to my home back in New Zealand and save me having to travel the world with my Arenas gear!
Anique // Apr 21, 2007 at 4:12 am
The packages went out slower than I expected too, the started out killer but slowed down at the end. Anyway it was fun, and I had a great (but risky and scary) adventure on getting my package.
Thanks Gil,
peace everybody.
Gregg // Apr 21, 2007 at 4:14 am
let’s hope shipping to canada is not too high…
i thought 2000packages would sell out in less than an hour
gilbertology // Apr 21, 2007 at 4:14 am
Finally able to sleep! See ya
d // Apr 21, 2007 at 4:15 am
the reason it didnt sell as fast is because most people are still sleeping at this time, thus the title “early bird package”
Mark // Apr 21, 2007 at 4:19 am
Ah yes the true fans! Still, I woke up at 7am and got mine, not crazy early you know.
d // Apr 21, 2007 at 4:21 am
yeah, true fans indeed. ima go nap some then watch the playoffs all day. goodluck and have fun everyone.
thanks again, gil.
Gregg // Apr 21, 2007 at 4:35 am
got the package. nap now. playoff all day. sounds like a great day.
thanks, gil!
kevin // Apr 21, 2007 at 7:33 am
i think people were unsure bout the shoe whether it was a pair or just one shoe. causing the low turnout. but no matter what, its for a good cause. hopefully the shipping rates would not be tooo expensive!!
X // Apr 21, 2007 at 9:24 am
Kevin – do you know if it’s 1 or the pair? Regardless, its pretty cool of Gilbert to do this – I’m excited to get it. Anybody know when the shipping charges are going to be made? I have to reload my PayPal account before that.
R.O.B // Apr 21, 2007 at 10:02 am
Man I’m gutted!! I tried for like 2 hours to get the site working but it just kept saying ‘Auction coming soon’!! Tried everything to make it work! Maybe its because I’m in the UK!! Completly f**ked up my weekend!!!
LT // Apr 21, 2007 at 12:21 pm
After staying up until 4 I finally was able to get my package
it was kinda frustrating though but it was worth it in the end. hopefully everyone who was there for the auction was able to get theres too. I was searching on the internet for display cases for the jersey and the shoe(s)? and they are all pretty expensive, kinda funny when the thing you have in the display case costed way less than the display case itself.
jj // Apr 21, 2007 at 5:44 pm
Hey guys. i managed to get the early bird package. however i mistyped my name to be personalized. can some1 please tell me how i can fix this problem? or am i too late? please help me
kevin // Apr 21, 2007 at 7:07 pm
X- the details are conflicting, the picture seems like its one shoe but the retail says $90 which is for a pair.
ster // Apr 21, 2007 at 8:03 pm
i was really surprised by the turnout and 2hr time it took sell out of the personalized jersey… i think it was a combination of people wondering why they couldn’t sign up or register, along with not knowing the primary method of payment was paypal, and the fact that it was at 3a.m. in the morning…
WarriorFan // Apr 22, 2007 at 1:08 pm
What are the odds of me having the first three packages? My PayPal receipt says around a minute after 2:55 was when my transaction was completed. Did anyone order more than one? I ordered just one, so that everyone would have a fair chance. Gilbert, get well if you read this. Come back to the Warriors one day!!!!
Shawn // Apr 22, 2007 at 1:18 pm
jj i had the same mistake as u wut u can do is the email u got their is a buisness email of the zero hero 2 foundatin thing i dno if this will work but i tryed and emailed them but jus explain t them and write ur recit number in ur email and ur ID and wiat for a feedback

Shawn // Apr 22, 2007 at 2:01 pm
i tryed to they didnt email me back yet do u have the number?
jj // Apr 22, 2007 at 2:36 pm
Shawn.. I’m not sure if it’s the right number. Paypal provided me with a number but I don’t think it’s the right number
Shawn // Apr 22, 2007 at 2:59 pm

jj // Apr 22, 2007 at 3:46 pm

jj // Apr 22, 2007 at 5:39 pm

dave // Apr 22, 2007 at 7:26 pm
i was one of the first people to see the auction up at 5:55 est. unfortunately i didnt have paypal and also didnt see the “if u dont have paypal click here to purchase by credit card” button. so i spent abt 10 min trying to setup an account, and then it asked for bank verification lol
luckily i went back and saw the other option, so i was able to get my package at around 1000. was hoping to be top 3, oh well.
clayfu // Apr 22, 2007 at 10:53 pm
i was # 1995. But i ordered it immediately, had my paypal ready. My time stamp is 2:52am (pacific time) =).
the auction came up at 2:50, took me a moment to figure out what name i wanted! i could have been 1998 or so =(
jj // Apr 23, 2007 at 6:36 am
Gotten any response Shawn?
Shawn // Apr 23, 2007 at 12:19 pm

DM // Apr 24, 2007 at 9:49 am

John // Apr 25, 2007 at 10:06 am
Not sure if it was on there before, but if you go to http://www.gilsarena.com/paypal2.php it says please allow 4-6 weeks for shipping…
Shawn // Apr 25, 2007 at 10:41 am

gg // Apr 25, 2007 at 6:35 pm
4-6 weeks? i hope it doesn’t take that long… i hope gilbert gives us some more info in his next blog
maybe clear things up with the “personalization” and shipping charges
Gilbert to continue Jersey/Shoe $25 donation | Gilbertology.net // Apr 27, 2007 at 3:57 pm
[...] Gilbert also writes that the early bird package sold out in 15-20 minutes which is way off as we stayed up until the entire thing was sold out at a little over 2 hours. The first 2,000 sold out in 15-to-20 minutes at six o’clock in the morning, 3 a.m. PT. [...]

Young // May 8, 2007 at 7:36 pm
hey guys. when i’m filling out the page to verify the shipping and handling, when it says “ship to name”, is the name used for personalization or just shipping info? Thanks.
jj // May 9, 2007 at 6:19 am
i didn’t get mines yet. did any1 get theirs yet?
jj // May 9, 2007 at 6:22 am

matt // May 9, 2007 at 10:31 am
on the “0″ on the back he wrote in black sharpie….”To Matt” then signed it right next to it
The jersey is the same as any swingman you would buy at the store…Arenas and # on back

KAL // Jul 9, 2007 at 11:36 am
shub thats where i got mine and it was $25 HA
shub // Jul 9, 2007 at 12:01 pm
what?? i was ripped sike lol. also for the shoe they got a display case like where you’d put a signed football or something, but its 50 bucks. its more than the frame lol.
KAL // Jul 9, 2007 at 2:04 pm
wtf hahaha my idea is find like a small shelf the size of the shoe and set it on it next to my jersey
KAL // Jul 9, 2007 at 2:13 pm
http://www.ikea.com/us/en/catalog/products/64379900
maybe something like that but slightly smaller, thats only $10 also
KAL // Jul 9, 2007 at 2:34 pm
if you cant click my link use this
ww.ikea.com/us/en/catalog/products/64379900
add a w at the start
shub // Jul 9, 2007 at 7:06 pm
thats a damn good idea actually, saves money
jj // Jul 10, 2007 at 12:52 pm
shub..can you link me to which specific frame you bought for your jersey..thanks
shub // Jul 10, 2007 at 1:37 pm

KAL // Jul 10, 2007 at 2:15 pm
hey and shub also if you find the link to that one display thing that you said might be used to hold a football or something can you post it, i just want to see what it looks like thanks
KAL // Jul 10, 2007 at 2:16 pm
o hahaa is this it
once again add a W at the start of url
ww.michaels.com/art/online/displayProductPage?productNum=fl0134&channelid=
shub // Jul 10, 2007 at 3:00 pm

KAL // Jul 10, 2007 at 3:42 pm
the thing i showed u?
shub // Jul 10, 2007 at 6:47 pm
yea, i actually dont know yet now. does dust in a room mess with ink or cause the ink to fade?
KAL // Jul 10, 2007 at 7:31 pm
i hope not but i see what your saying because its out in the open if you just get a shelf
shub // Jul 11, 2007 at 7:00 am
my bro got his package but i still dint get mine. i called dan but his message is always on. all i need is the tracking number. nobody picks up in that office anymore.
Tom // Jul 11, 2007 at 9:07 am
I went to Michaels like you suggested, but the football display cases were $50 at the one I went to. I found a display case for model cars that looks like it would work and that was only $29. Just an idea.
Has anyone found a cheap jersey display case?
KAL // Jul 11, 2007 at 12:01 pm
theyre probably open limited time i think i called at noon
shub // Jul 11, 2007 at 12:45 pm
yea they gave me a tracking number, but i dont think dhl has it yet so nothings coming up on the net
KAL // Jul 11, 2007 at 4:15 pm
mine was delievered by ups
shub // Jul 13, 2007 at 8:50 pm
hey tom can you give me the link to that model car case on here plz? thanks oh and i got my package yay!
shub // Jul 13, 2007 at 8:51 pm
also theres a cheap frame for like 30 bucks at Michaels . just go to the framing area and ask what can be used to frame a jersey.
KAL // Jul 13, 2007 at 9:53 pm
i still havnt recieved my SHOE!
KAL // Jul 13, 2007 at 10:30 pm
uhh does anyone have tips for making your jersey straight in a frame
KAL // Jul 13, 2007 at 10:30 pm
^^^^^^^^^^^
i mean without wrinkles
shub // Jul 14, 2007 at 6:14 am
pin it down with some thumbtacks through the holes of the jersey. yea you have to be on rapid fulfillment everyday to get what you want. took me like 4 days of calling. good luck!
Andy L // Jul 14, 2007 at 10:56 am
At least you have your jersey kal, I ordered 3 packages where none has arrived yet.. and I call everyday but the guy is never friggin there on customer service
Tom // Jul 16, 2007 at 9:15 am
Shub,
The model car display ended up being too small…just barely. I had to take it back and get the football display case.
shub // Jul 16, 2007 at 10:31 am
ah i see. i ended up getting the basketball display case. i got a 13.5 shoe so didnt fit in football one. and the jersey is framed so thats the end finally, all that wait.
KAL // Jul 16, 2007 at 8:54 pm
how much was the basketball dsplay
shub // Jul 17, 2007 at 6:21 am
50 bucks
bobby b // Jul 20, 2007 at 2:33 pm
Hey, has anybody from Canada received their Agent 0 package yet? Is anybody in Canada still waiting for it to arrive? I’ve been waiting 3 months! I’m wondering if there’s a problem with customs, or if we have to pay duty and/or tax.
dan // Jul 23, 2007 at 8:53 pm
yeah, i am still waiting in Canada too. if you recieve it or hear anything, post it on here please.
KAL // Jul 23, 2007 at 10:16 pm
hahaha i just recieved my 2nd shoe in only about 1 and a half weeks and its a size 7
screwed? // Jul 24, 2007 at 11:34 pm
Hey I’m in canada too and I still havent received my collectors package. does anyone know how to contact these guys by phone??? all they have is email and i’ve emailed a couple times with no response. i’m startin to think this is run by a bunch of crooks…
KAL // Jul 25, 2007 at 11:42 am
dude the number was already given out a couple of comments above just read it
philip // Jul 26, 2007 at 8:00 pm
I haven’t received any either. I really need the contact info to those guys who took care of this whole thing…
philip // Jul 26, 2007 at 8:02 pm
by the way, I live in CA and the 3 packages haven’t come yet….kinda disappointed…
screwed? // Jul 26, 2007 at 11:16 pm
hey. quick update. i just received an email from auction@gilsarena.com. said my package was confirmed and shipped last week. said international shipping takes a bit longer so i should receive within 14 days….
philip // Jul 29, 2007 at 8:19 pm
The sad thing is that I didn’t even receive any of those emails that you were talking about.
Sigh…
bobby b // Aug 10, 2007 at 5:25 pm
Has anybody in Canada received their Agent 0 package yet? This is complete bullshit! Got my ass out of bed MAD early, and I was one of the very first to order a package, and I’m still waiting for it. Damn!
KAL // Aug 10, 2007 at 5:41 pm
ouch i live in pacific time so i just stayed up till 3AM HAHAAAAAAA
DM // Aug 14, 2007 at 8:44 am
Anyone in California receive their package yet? My girlfriend ordered 2, and none of arrived…
What is going on??? It’s been almost 4 mths….!?!?!
bobby b // Aug 14, 2007 at 11:55 am
Well, I guess I can take small comfort in the fact that some Americans are still waiting for their packages. I thought only the international orders were delayed at this point.
screwed? // Aug 14, 2007 at 9:59 pm
Yea, i still haven’t received mine yet. been over 14 days and I sent them an email on the 14th day and haven’t heard back. arenas better play damn well next season to make up for this lol.
philip // Aug 15, 2007 at 8:19 am
so something has possibly gone wrong with those California orders… Talking about that night, I got up at 3:00am pacific time not even a minute later than 3:00am, and now I am one of those who is going to receive the packages the last or maybe not going to receive any!? it’s just complete BS! sorry for my language, but I am seriously mad about this.
bobby b // Aug 15, 2007 at 9:57 am
philip, I feel your pain. I was out drinking and having a good time, and had to cut it short because I knew I’d have to wake up early. I got home, and had a solid 40 minutes of sleep before waking up to buy a package. I was one of the very first to buy a package, and I’m still waiting.
I check this site everyday, hoping that another Canadian will post saying that he/she received their package.
Fucking zerotwohero foundation! jk!
bobby b // Aug 24, 2007 at 8:08 am
I finally received my package a couple of days ago. And, it only took 4 whole months!
dan // Aug 24, 2007 at 10:19 am
Got mine in Canada!
