JeffB Posted July 16, 2008 Report Share Posted July 16, 2008 One of my latest eBay treasures has arrived! Got this thing for $45 including shipping and handling. Everything is double-layer stitched and the name is on a name bar. It's absolutely beautiful! Those are going to be sought after when time passes for their unique color and construction. Kind of like the Islanders Fisherman or Kings Burger King. Isn't it heavy? For those of you unfamiliar with this style, the gold color is a mesh layer over a dark blue layer underneath, so it's a double weight jersey. I can't believe the players put up with it. I also love the number font and the fact it's italicized as well. And that price! You can't get it customized for that. Great pickup. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's a little bit heavier than your regular jersey, but that's what I love about hockey jerseys. The simple fact that it's heavier makes it more distinctive than all other jerseys and that's why I think RBK took away hockey jersey's individuality with the new Edge style ones. I'm very happy with it and plan on keeping it for a long time! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brass97 Posted July 17, 2008 Report Share Posted July 17, 2008 Got this on RiverCitySports.com for only $19.99! I'm thinking of putting Josh Gratton on it. Any other ideas? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brilliant! Posted July 17, 2008 Report Share Posted July 17, 2008 I really like that Preds mustard jersey and it's been on my list for a little bit now. It's like a burlap sack with a logo stitched onto it. Awesome! Fortunately, I have my eye on one right now... A few weeks back, I found an uncrested authentic CCM Flames jersey on eBay which I eventually won. Then, a few days later, I found the accurate flaming C patch that goes on the front of it. I got the jersey a few days ago, threw a 75th patch on it and played the waiting game for the C to arrive. It arrived today: I LOVE IT. Check another one off the list!

lafountain Posted July 18, 2008 Author Report Share Posted July 18, 2008 I ordered this today (these are stock photos) Derek Nesbitt game-worn from 06-07 (Idaho won the Kelly Cup that year). He will be on the PHX Coyotes/SA Rampage this upcoming season. Congrats on getting the Nesbitt, I know you were pretty sure that was the one you wanted from the Summer Sale.

I got it from Hartley because my stepbro was attending his camp in York, PA. I came up to pick him up...and he was selling them. I jumped all over the oppurtunity. I'll get pics and post them ASAP. I'm still on Vacay in PA, so I'm unsure when that will happen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brass97 Posted July 21, 2008 Report Share Posted July 21, 2008 Just picked this up from HockeyOverstock.com when there authentics were only like $45: Thinking of either Ed Jovanovski with a "Decade in the Desert" patch or just a Sean Burke one.

Brass97 Posted July 21, 2008 Report Share Posted July 21, 2008 Nice pick-up. How about customising it with Roenick? I was thinking of that, but Roenick really didn't play long in this style and I'm more interested in someone who had a longer tenure in that jersey. I also wanted to advoid Doan, because that would just be cliché. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DerbyCoyote Posted July 22, 2008 Report Share Posted July 22, 2008 I was thinking of that, but Roenick really didn't play long in this style and I'm more interested in someone who had a longer tenure in that jersey. Jovo only played 1 season in that jersey. I'd go for Michalek or Ballard. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brilliant! Posted July 24, 2008 Report Share Posted July 24, 2008 I got this today: I put the Centennial patch on earlier. Yay! It'll be Gilmour soon enough. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yzerman fan Posted July 25, 2008 Report Share Posted July 25, 2008 Got a authentic white Wings Larionov today with the 2000 patch. I would post the pictures,but I always suck at that.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brass97 Posted July 25, 2008 Report Share Posted July 25, 2008 I got this today: I put the Centennial patch on earlier. Yay! It'll be Gilmour soon enough. Nice! However, the Centennial patch seems small. I always thought that they were a tad bigger. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brilliant! Posted July 26, 2008 Report Share Posted July 26, 2008 It looks okay to me. I compared it with another one I have and they seem to be the same size. There might be a slight size difference in the white trim but that's about it. Well...I finally found it. The ONE jersey that had eluded me for oh so many years now. I even had to sell off about 12 jerseys just to justify buying it! Without further ado: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If I remember correctly, they put numbers but not names on the practice jerseys. I'm not 100% positive, but figured a little help would be nice.

Brilliant! Posted July 27, 2008 Report Share Posted July 27, 2008 Heh...who??? Actually I was thinking about Ciccarelli. The only negative for customizing is that now I have to find someone who has a green mesh nameplate. D-OH! Not likely, I'm guessing. Oh and I didn't have to sell 12 to actually AFFORD it...it wasn't THAT much. No more than what I've paid for others anyway. I just basically decided to start selling some of my excess a few weeks ago and then I saw this on eBay so I got it with my sellers money. That's the result of finding someone who really REALLY wanted my Burger King and red Canucks 3rd jerseys. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brilliant! Posted July 27, 2008 Report Share Posted July 27, 2008 Amazingly, they both went to the same guy. He paid $430 for the Burger King one and $222 for the Canucks. I never EVER thought I'd make that much off of two replicas. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
