ebod39 Posted July 26, 2005 Share Posted July 26, 2005 aside from Billy Guerin never playing for the Whalers, that is one horrible jerseyeven for a house league which I am sure is where it came from. The postingnever says it was game worn or anything and they are stretching things by saying it's"vintage". They probably just didn't do their homework and assumed the name meant him.

BBTV Posted July 26, 2005 Share Posted July 26, 2005 I didn't know that Bill Guerin didn't play for the Whalers, but since he isn't advertising it as a game worn or authentic jersey, I don't see how that matters. It is a crappy jersey, but not a misleading ad in any way.

VitaminD Posted July 26, 2005 Share Posted July 26, 2005 Oh, where to begin...The screened on logo?The incorrect colors on the logo? (correct: whale tail in blue, negative space "H" in silver, bottom of logo in greenThe incorrect colors of the color? (correct, from closest to the neck to most distant: white stripe, green stripe, silver stripe)The ultra-thin mesh better suited to football practice jerseys?The incorrect numbering font? (correct: same font as NJ Devils, without the 3D effect, outlined in green... and maybe silver?)The incorrect lettering font? (correct: standard NHL varsity, same as NJ Devils, but without outlined letters, far more angular than what is used here)Or...The fact that Bill Guerin never played for Hartford? (NJ, Edmonton, Boston, Dallas)The fact that Bill Guerin never wore #19? (#9 with EDM, #13 with DAL, BOS, US Nat'l. Team, #12 with NJ)I do give them credit for spelling the name correctly. I like how it says "previously worn". For the record, all of my jerseys are also previously worn. By me. "Start spreading the news... They're leavin' today... Won't get to be a part of it... In old New York..."In order for the Mets' run of 12 losses in 17 games to mean something, the Phillies still had to win 13 of 17. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Neon_Matrix Posted July 26, 2005 Share Posted July 26, 2005 What could explain it is it was for some kids house league team and his last name just happened to be Guerin.

KCScout76 Posted July 26, 2005 Share Posted July 26, 2005 Do people sell Dog-Shizza on EBay too, just like this jersey. How can these people sleep?

FUNKAFIED Posted July 26, 2005 Share Posted July 26, 2005 I almost posted this link the other night, and I'm a big Guerin fan as well as a Whale fan when they existed.I even checked his stats online. He never played for the Whalers, and this jersey looks like crap. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OnWis97 Posted July 26, 2005 Share Posted July 26, 2005 This one does not bother me too much since I don't think it used words like "authentic".Some people try to flat out lie to you. This guy just does not really understand his product. If anyone buys it thinking it is a nice Whaler jersey, then they don't really care that much about detail anyway.

VitaminD Posted July 26, 2005 Share Posted July 26, 2005 Let the buyer beware And if the Scout winds up at the seller's front door with his fist cocked, let the seller beware! I'm surprised people don't try this $h*t more often - find someone who's got a name in common with a pro and try to pass the jersey off as authentic. We had a "Thomas" and a "Miller" on my high school team; anybody looking for game-worn UGA knockoffs? "Start spreading the news... They're leavin' today... Won't get to be a part of it...
