  1. Found the listing, it's a legit premier with bad custo.
  2. Incorrect customisation is not always an indication of a jersey being fake although in this case you could be right, it could be the lighting in that image but the fabric looks wrong in any event.
  3. Check in most days but was never really the most active poster anyway on any platform.
  4. Nice reminder from Bob, seeking a white vector with red inserts for a Wings jersey.
  5. Yeah, cheers, I've spent an inordinate amount of time going through all those videos looking for clues. That 3rd video is totally MIA everywhere but the other "episodes" bookend that Stars game so I am pretty confident in slapping the A on there and the fonts being accurate based on a number of screen grabs I've sent to Keener. Thanks again for taking the time to assist and investigate. Now to get it done up and home to its TBTC brothers.
  6. Update on above post, I have narrowed this down to the October 12th, 1991 game. Unfortunately there is zero footage on Youtube. Anyone got any ideas where I may be able to find some? Probert scores a goal so really hoping there is something out there I am missing. Thanks in advance.
  7. Thread from the dead but does anyone know if there is a reference showing which dates / games the O6 teams wore the TBTC jerseys, specifically the Red Wings and even more specifically the Red Wings vs North Stars that season? I can narrow to 7 games, well 6 as Probert didn't play in the 14th March 1992 game. This relates specifically to fonts when Probie wore the A which this hockey card shows was against the North Stars. If I can nail the date I can narrow the search for game footage to confirm what my investigations thus far have shown of old footage when Probie did not wear the A which is different sleeve and rear number 2 fonts. Thanks in advance if anyone has anything.
  8. Vegemite has been, and always will be superior to m*rmite
  9. You've come to the right place then.
  10. I'd imagine they're pretty pre-occupied with the season jerseys right now. They have a reputation for being very slow. Have you tried calling them?
  11. Oh he's a very popular EQM. The sportsos, the motorheads, geeks, sluts, bloods, wastoids, dweebies, dickheads; they all adore him.
  12. FYI HockeyTown Authentics have been known to do incorrect customisation if you're a stickler for that kind of thing. They've put nameplates on jerseys for example. As @mdwsta4 said you'll need a CCM with the black and orange NHL shield on the hem. The eBay link above is accurate. The silver and black NHL shield on the hem is a later incarnation of CCM jerseys after the Wings used Nike for a few years. Just my experiences however Sports Haven can be a bit slow and Vintage Detroit Collection do indistinguishable customisation for Wings home / away jerseys. If it's just the one jersey you'll get it back same day in most instances from VDC.
  13. First point I'll make is that most collectors here wouldn't *approve* getting a new Adidas jersey with Yzerman on it as he never wore that style of jersey; myself included. However if that doesn't bother you and you want the Adidas Adizero then I'd recommend Vintage Detroit Collection on Michigan Ave as their customisation is spot on, and they're great to deal with. If you want to be "accurate" then he wore CCM, Koho, Nike and the first incarnation of the Reebok jerseys called 6100s. There are plenty of these options on the second hand market at any given time but beware of the fakes that litter eBay. EPS are a customiser, typically people send blanks to them to be customised as they do a number of NHL teams.
  14. You rang? Hard to talk s*** when your team is, well, troubled might be a word. Reminds me I went to the Hawks v Rangers opener in 2017 as I was in Chicago prior to going to the LCA opener, and no one at the UC appreciated my Red Wings hoodie or t-shirt. Made minus 300 friends.
  15. It has still worked for me on numerous jerseys.
  16. Put it in the freezer for a few days. I don't know the science on this but I've had success with this.
  17. I wouldn't do that if I were you. It sounds dangerous; like adding up what you've spent, then adding postage considering I'm on the other side of the planet. Oh dear, this is ungood. Back to the original question I have a jersey slush fund of sorts for the really tricky ones to get and the rest are ad hoc. Exchange rate sliding a ton over the last few years has been unpleasant.
  18. Whilst for the majority of the collectors here TJF probably isn't going to find something we don't already know about or are really interested in, however is he is growing the hobby by getting more people interested in jerseys. Law of averages will likely indicate that as more people gain interest some of those people will, and I use this term loosely and in a non offensive manner, 'graduate' from cheap replicas to sought after authentics and for some into gamers as well. We can all agree that the market has been pretty flat the last couple of years but this could be the injection needed to see values return to where they were in the longer term. Admittedly I've been quick to point to Reddit as a problem in terms of value as everyone expects a bargain but that is likely a shorter term view I needed to re-assess. As Devilsguy pointed out more discussion is not a bad thing. There is an encyclopaedic wealth of knowledge amongst members here and if we can share that and create greater interest, fantastic. I see he's joined anyway so welcome aboard mate. Now please find me an Adidas Red Wings MiC.......
  19. Haven't asked in a while but after another Red Wings TBTC in a 50 or 52. Blank or Lidstrom preferred but happy to strip one if needs be. Thanks team.
  20. I'm willing to buy quite a bit....... Understandable position though. If you ever get sick of the red and white one you know where to find me.
  21. How much cat hair do I have to buy to get a Wings TBTC with it?
