xcdude Posted August 12, 2012 Report Share Posted August 12, 2012 I still think it's a legit replica. The fact that the seller uses the term authentic doesn't mean to me they are mis-representing the jersey, I think it's a matter of some sellers using "authentic" to mean "genuine/licensed". The NHL Player tag just denotes that it uses an NHLPA kit for the customization and was probably added when the jersey was customized. In the end the only suspicious piece is the size tag listing 52(L). However considering Nike's practices of blurring the line between replicas and authentics during that era (see 1998 Olympic jerseys) I wouldn't be surprised if that was something they had on some of their replica jerseys at that time. I really don't think the counterfeiters would take the time to make up a fake replica jersey to compete with the fake authentics from this era they already have. I know this is old, but I'm 99% sure its fake. Those swooshes do not look right at ALL. They look like the old Griffenfood or Griffen whatever fakes but on a replica. Also NEVER buy anything from guess_who_27. She is a notorious scammer in the game worn community. I don't know if people here have dealt wit her. My advice? Don't.

They purchased a jersey from me once and for 2 hours he tried to sell me fake russian hockey jerseys and a fake game worn Kuvolchuk jersey. Stay away from them!

Gorges_26A Posted August 13, 2012 Report Share Posted August 13, 2012 What I thought haha just wanted to be sure. Just wondering, do any of you know the deal with this jersey, Leland Irving gamer with the captains C? http://www.meigray.com/edealinv/servlet/ExecMacro?nurl=control/StoreItem.vm&ctl_nbr=2381&siId=4691146&catLevel=1&scLevel=1&thisCatLevel=&oldParentID=4213&catParentID=4523&scId=4523 The first picture is of a Jarome Iginla jersey, look at the sleeves. Probably a stock photo, or maybe they didn't have one of the front of the jersey. Don't know why they couldn't take one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sk3 Posted August 13, 2012 Report Share Posted August 13, 2012 Im thinking they categorize the jerseys in computer folders like folllowing: (Folder for year) (Folder for sets) (folder for Team) Which would leave the Irving next to the Iginla, goes to upload the irving photo, uploads the iginla by mistake. Thats just what im assuming, they clicked the wrong guy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

StayFrosty Posted August 15, 2012 Report Share Posted August 15, 2012 I just got my Ales Hemsky game worn... This dude makes a hilarious alteration. The top parts of each sleeve are actually cut off. I assume he does this to make them shorter. You can clearly see a cut has been made. They don't bother fixing it, either. From what I can tell on the inside of the sleeve, a stitch has been placed on the seam so that it doesn't come in half. Reminds me what I do to the legs of my Pajama bottoms sometimes if they're too long just snip it off. I can post pics in a while if anyone requests.

StayFrosty Posted August 15, 2012 Report Share Posted August 15, 2012 Cool. I'm just trying to figure out whether or not the "A" from the jersey would have been stripped. http://www.meigray.com/edealinv/servlet/ExecMacro?nurl=control/StoreItem.vm&ctl_nbr=2381&siId=4591054&catLevel=0&scLevel=&thisCatLevel=&oldParentID=&catParentID=4532&scId=4532 The Edmonton Oilers wore their Blue Retro Set 1 jerseys from October 3, 2009 through November 28, 2009. I've just found a bunch of videos from this era, but this is the only one I can find where Hemsky doesn't have the "A": Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Girouxsalem Posted August 15, 2012 Report Share Posted August 15, 2012 crap? I think so. The tag looks like a premier one and should say authentic jersey. Also, the shield looks embroidered on instead of a patch. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If it had a letter on it that was removed they would have noted it. Not saying things can't slip through the cracks but odds are it didn't have one if they didn't mention it.

StayFrosty Posted August 16, 2012 Report Share Posted August 16, 2012 Hmmmm ok. It looks like in that case Hemsky only wore this jersey like 2 times. Sounds kinda weird. But I've already seen clips from almost all games in this period, and he had the "A" in all except 2. Perhaps it does make sense since they may have needed to issue him a new jersey when he no longer needed the "A". Any info here is appreciated.

The Burke is real but in the Kijij post he added picture of a different jersey except for the first 5 because that plaque belongs with that jersey. These jerseys were sold during the 1988/89 All-Star game. recently someone sold a Hull and a Gretzky jersey with the same exact plaque and they were numbed.

How is that Devils jersey supposed to be gameworn? There wasn't any skills competition that year, so I would think the only jersey actually worn would be the All-Star jersey for that year. Plus that jersey has a large block CCM logo, which wasn't around until the next season (1989/90). Burke also used #30 in the 1989 ASG. He didn't even play in the 1990 ASG, so I don't see how that jersey could possibly be an ASG gamer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Here are some the recently sold on eBay: Brett Hull http://cgi.ebay.com/...3#ht_997wt_1182 The same seller also had a black 1988 small block ccm Wayne Gretzky whit a plaque that was numbers to a 100. The Devils BURKE jersey is real I can tell by the ccm blocks and the placement of the fight strap. Like I said in his Kijij listing he added additional pictures of a different jersey what looks to be a Flames jersey. If you're serious and you want to purchase it I would use the eBay link.

LAK74 Posted August 16, 2012 Report Share Posted August 16, 2012 That still doesn't explain what connection there is between the Burke jersey and the 1989 ASG. Did he just wear the jersey (along with 29 others) for a minute to take a picture or something, because I don't see how he would have used it in the actual All-Star Game. And would those large block CCM logos have been on a jersey as early as February 1989? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
