Kane totally played for the Junior Monarchs before they existed. Someone explain to her that Kane isn’t from there. He’s actually born from hellfire and brimstone. ...what the hell is brimstone?

Devilsguy Posted January 10, 2018 Report Share Posted January 10, 2018 In one of the Devils fan groups someone posted pictures of a Hischier Adidas knockoff that they got from some random website. I have to admit the knockoffs are pretty impressive looking, but you can still spot some minor issues. However I am blown away by the number of people who 1) want to order from the same website and 2) believe they will get the same quality of knockoffs that the poster got even though there have been numerous posts in the past year alone where people b**** about their knockoff not looking like the pictures the website posted. I hope all of their jerseys look terrible. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's your fault for having such lofty quality standards as "real materials" and "not sewn by a 5 year old". Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its funny though, there's a LOT more of them than there are of us. I actually saw season ticket holders in fake jerseys this season. Talking about how the new Adidas jerseys (which he was not wearing a real OR fake of) are of such less quality than Reebok (which he WAS wearing a fake of). It took a lot but I resisted saying anything. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I do chuckle at how bad some of them are though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Recalling my retail manager days, I knew fans would indulge in fakes when they hit the market. I always thought it hilarious that someone would pay as much for a hat as they paid for the jersey they were wearing in the store. The people who really pissed me off were the ones who would ask if they got a good deal and proceed to get mad when I told them the truth.

Guest Dr_Puck Posted January 11, 2018 Report Share Posted January 11, 2018 There was a particular nasty set of responses to a collector who asked why people were dropping a mishmash of random junk into a jersey group. Just a simple, "Hey what's going on..." comment and he was jumped by a couple of hotheads. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This forum is made up of (primarily) actual hockey jersey enthusiasts, all three of Devils fans, as well as a few ugly Flyers fans who can’t be exposed to sunlight, get wet, or be fed after midnight. We take our hobby seriously, are harsh critics of customization, cross our T’s, and dot our i’s. The facebook groups are made up of Facebook members (that includes almost anyone and everyone in the world) who happen to stumble into the groups for any random purpose, even if they don’t collect.
