redbeard3569 Posted April 3, 2011 Report Share Posted April 3, 2011 OK it didn't just come in but I was taking pics and figured I'd post it. The Kings wore a one time 40 year throw back opening the season in Vancouver this year. I think it looks sharp. I like the old-time numbers only look. And by the way in the realm of full disclosure it's my wifes. She's a huge Westgarth fan and this was a pretty special get. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

walzthewarrior Posted April 3, 2011 Report Share Posted April 3, 2011 Whoa; is that a Walt gamer? No if it was thanks to the Clearance aisle at Meigray..... They are both Pro Jerseys. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brilliant! Posted April 3, 2011 Report Share Posted April 3, 2011 Ohh right; I didn't even notice the twill nameplate the first time around. Well, it's still the nicest Blues jersey they've worn since 1984. Where'd you have it done up? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MountainKing Posted April 3, 2011 Report Share Posted April 3, 2011 Got this one yesterday, I bought it because it looked cool..not really sure what it is since I don't know much about college hockey, best I could find is it's U of Maine (obviously) from 2004/05? I'll probably end up throwing this one up for sale for $100 since it was an impulse buy and I want my money back..lol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
F-liars Posted April 3, 2011 Report Share Posted April 3, 2011 That Maine jersey is made by Colosseum. They make college fashion jerseys like that one. Maine used to wear Nike's, now Adidas. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jukierules Posted April 3, 2011 Report Share Posted April 3, 2011 This arrived this weekend. Not too shabby for $50! Gonna get a Stanley Cup patch and turn this into a Kipper. I'm glad it's in as good a shape it's in as it was stuffed into a cereal box and wrapped in a paper grocery bag to be sent. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DaNoobie Posted April 4, 2011 Report Share Posted April 4, 2011 As long as the box is clean and big enough, I dont see what the big deal is..? I mean the guy had the courtesy to wrap it in a bag. More than I can say for a lot of the sellers I've encountered that just shoved it in anything that fits sans wrapping edit: I recently got a box that measures out to 25cm x 18.5cm x 8cm, so about 10"x7"x3" And thats not even the smallest box I've received a jersey in. Its close though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CJ Matthews Posted April 4, 2011 Report Share Posted April 4, 2011 Yeah I don't see a problem with it as long as it's like one of those family sized cereal boxes, big enough that you're not crushing the ###### thing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HawksFan719 Posted April 4, 2011 Report Share Posted April 4, 2011 I've gotten a few jerseys off ebay recently that were crammed into tiny square boxes, one so bad I sent it back because the twill on the crest got creased several times. now when I win any jerseys I tell the seller to ship it flat or I'll send it back Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CJ Matthews Posted April 4, 2011 Report Share Posted April 4, 2011 I've gotten a few jerseys in square boxes that have come in good shape. One was the Islanders jersey I received from a forum member here, and the other was from Meigray. I guess it all comes down to knowing how to properly fold a jersey. I'd include the link to the thread on this forum on how to fold jerseys next time too if that helps lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jukierules Posted April 4, 2011 Report Share Posted April 4, 2011 I had to chuckle. The box was slightly larger that the crest. They were careful enough not to fold the twill, so I wasn't too upset. They did a lot of shopping at ShopRite. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
akteon Posted April 4, 2011 Report Share Posted April 4, 2011 With the proliferation of free boxes from USPS, UPS, FedEx etc. I don't see why people are sending stuff in a cereal box. While I won't leave a negative feedback on eBay for shoddy shipping material, I definitely won't give them 5 stars either. If I'm paying for the shipping and handling of the jersey, then I expect my money to go towards a legitimate box shipped by a reputable company.

If I'm paying for the shipping and handling of the jersey, then I expect my money to go towards a legitimate box shipped by a reputable company. Agreed. I paid something like 10 bucks for shipping on an eBay auction and the ###### thing came in the thinnest paper USPS bag you could imagine, stuffed into what amounts to an oversized USPS envelope. I believe it was my Pro Player Liberty. Oddly enough, the woman I bought it off of knew how to fold it perfectly so that it would fit in the bag without damaging the crest. I wasn't happy when I saw the package, but when I opened it up it was fine. I also got one that came stuffed into one of those big brown letter envelopes. $8 for shipping wasn't enough to pay for a suitable box? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
