The RCMP said the jerseys in the second seizure had been made in China and shipped to Winnipeg. The retail value is estimated to be more than $76,000.

The RCMP said the seized jerseys are poor copies of the official Jets jersey, with the names of players in both home and away colors.

No arrests have been announced and the investigation is continuing.
