Guest Dr_Puck Posted January 22, 2019 Report Share Posted January 22, 2019 Did the mods delete that thread? It went from zero to nasty in a mili-second. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LetsGoHomeBaby Posted January 23, 2019 Report Share Posted January 23, 2019 Milt Byron just posted a novel on the subject. Probably stemming from the argument with Casey, Ross, and Derek Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It'll be interesting to see how some of Milt's comments and statements are received once we get past all the "feels" type posts and more see it and take the time to digest it all and reply. There's definitely content involved in that post that could stir reaction and i am genuinely looking forward to what's to follow. Taking my own advice and keeping my mouth shut tonight. Somehow I became Casey's defender. Just because I hate the Wings doesn't mean I love the Pens. And now the Flyers tonight - a ton of issues there as well. Happy Collecting Y'all.

thebiggoalie Posted January 29, 2019 Report Share Posted January 29, 2019 Seller: “Jersey for sale. Has a stain.” Tirekicker: “have you tried washing it out?” Seller: “WHY DIDNT I THINK OF THAT?!? That’s why it’s a stain” Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
furiousd Posted January 29, 2019 Report Share Posted January 29, 2019 To be fair, a lot of people don't try. I can't count how many listings I've seen with "light marks, should wash out." Well, why don't you do it then, rather than making me wonder if you DID try, they didn't come out, and you're being deceptive. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, why don't you do it then, rather than making me wonder if you DID try, they didn't come out, and you're being deceptive. I never understand it, but I can't even tell you how many jerseys I have received that were "stained" that only needed a trip through the wash. I had one that was so filthy the white stripes looked tan. It took 3 trips through the wash and was good as new. That was a rare jersey and I knew I would get it clean, so I took a shot and the seller still got a fair price. But on a run of the mill jersey, a huge stain means you are getting less money for it. Why not wash the thing? It also totally grosses me out to think that someone was probably wearing that stained, unwashed jersey because they didn't take the time to clean it. I think it goes back to the whole concept (which some collectors here have even believed) that washing a jersey ruins it. It doesn't if you do it right, and doing it right is simple. In fact, I wash ALL of my clothes the same way I wash jerseys; cold water, mild detergent, hang to dry, press if needed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know that last thought is true with gamer collectors, but is that really the majority opinion on authentics? I've sold authentics where if they weren't pristine i would quickly wash it before sending it. Hell I was all my authentics I wear after every 4-6 games regardless. FWIW there is a gamer right now for sale that is up my alley and at a decent price but I'm avoiding due to the fact that I'm pretty some of the stains on there were added after it came off the ice. Some nice "fan wear" on it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wash my jerseys if I attend a game in person. But I'm a germaphobe of sorts, and the arena is a gross, disgusting place. If you buy one of my authentics, it has 100% been washed before its packed. Unless its going to @thebiggoalie, who insists I wear them naked before I ship them, for some reason. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Devilsguy Posted February 4, 2019 Report Share Posted February 4, 2019 Anyone see the white Thomas Bruins knockoff a guy was selling in one of the groups for $150? He claims he paid $200 for it and it's quite possibly the worst knockoff I have ever seen. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Devilsguy Posted February 7, 2019 Report Share Posted February 7, 2019 And it looks like the game worn group got flooded again from the same guy who refuses to put all his jerseys for sale into a single post. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Devilsguy Posted February 27, 2019 Report Share Posted February 27, 2019 (edited) This showed up in FB marketplace. "NWT" and "official." Only asking $100. Edited March 12, 2019 by Devilsguy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Had a lot of wear on it and I think the guy was genuinely looking for some insight. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
furiousd Posted February 28, 2019 Report Share Posted February 28, 2019 Ah, that makes more sense. I couldn't get past all of those Brett jerseys that just sold, even though it didn't seem to fit. Interesting origin - I wasn't aware that team personnel did stuff like that, but I guess that way way before jerseys became serial-numbered commodities.
