spyboy1 Posted December 19, 2006 Share Posted December 19, 2006 You know you have an ebay problem when FOUR jerseys arrive in the mail the same day.I gotta get me some help.My newest arrivals were;A Chicago Blackhawks Red Nike authentic Chelios jersey. Can't decide which patch to go with. Choices are NHL 1992 NHL 75th Anniversary, 1993 Stanley Cup 100th Anniversary or 1992 Stanley Cup Finals (lost to Penguins). One small issue is that the jersey has a captian's "C" on it and Chelios wasn't made captian until later on.Vancouver Canucks CCM black flying skate jersey. I'm planning on making this one a Pavel Bure #96 with the "A" and the Vancouver Canucks 25th Annversary patch. I've already done this jersey as a Bure #10 so that's why I'm going with #96 on this one.1996 NHL All-Star Eastern Conference CCM Teal. This one is going to be a Lemieux #66 "A" as worn in Boston. I believe Ray Bourque was captian of the Eastern team being that he was playing in Boston. Odd story. I saw two these jerseys, the same brand as mine, go for $110 and $202.50 on ebay in previous couple of weeks. Mine? $12.50. Seriously, a savings of $190. Ebay is a weird place sometimes... I'm tempted to write to the second highest bidder of the $202.50 auction and offer it to him for $180.A 1989-1992 NHL All Star black jersey. This one is also blank and in nice shape. Frequently the heat sealed stars are peeling off of these after all these years. I'm not sure if I'm going to go with a 1989 Lemieux or a 1990 Gretzky. I have the Lemiuex from 1989 already, but it's a medium and too small for me to wear. I have other Gretzky's in this style in black from other years, but to get an XL in this condition is unusual and it was a buy it now, so I didn't want to think on it and miss out.The next day I also recieved a name and number kit for a Gretzky Rangers WHITE Liberty alternate jersey. This was only worn for one year, 98-99, and I just got the blank jersey a week prior. Now I just have to get someone to sew on the name correctly. The last time I took a Rangers jersey in, they arched the letters like you'd see on a Twins jeresy (radially), even though they are supposed to be arched vertically, like a Red Wings jersey. I made them do it over, but now I don't trust them to do another one.JeffBtalkin' jerseys Click here to read Third String Goalie - The Hockey Jersey of the Day Blog Click here to see my hockey and baseball jersey collection online ?You don?t like to see 20 kids punching 20 other kids.

ebod39 Posted December 19, 2006 Share Posted December 19, 2006 SpyboyI've been on a streak lately too, getting a jersey at the house every couple days. I think I've gotten 8 in the past 3 weeks. My best was the Sabres Sean O'Donnel game issued blue away from 1993. It is pure mint condition and the front crest is impeccable craftsmanship of twill and embroidery. It really makes you realize that CCM jerseys of the late 80's and early 90's are top notch. They are what I prefer to get and scour for every night. The ultrafil CCM are my personal treasure hunt. Of course I do dabble in the replica bin now and then, I picked up two home and one away Nordiques replicas from the 90's not the vintage line reissues out now. I like the screened on Fleur-de-lis better. I've got the Bure skate authentic I got on ebay about 4 years ago. Also a Whalers white Sanderson #8. There's a some goodies on there, it just takes persistance and patience. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even though my Flyers suck bad this year, I'm planning on picking up a few new ones, and have been shopping around for the best place/deal to get them. If you guys say this site is reputable, and have gotten so many jerseys from them, I might have to go with them. I see the prices are pretty great, so I just hope the quality is up to par as well. Thanks for any info guys. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rmackman Posted December 20, 2006 Share Posted December 20, 2006 I have a bunch of jerseys but not 300. Maybe we could all trade on here if people have other ones that we want.

fashman23 Posted December 20, 2006 Share Posted December 20, 2006 I don't have a website, but like you, I have some interesting hockey ones. I have a Langkow #18 Lighting Rain Jersey with the "Shock" numbers. I have a home and road Hartford Whalers jersey from the mid 90s (Navy Blue Road) with Pronger #44 on the home and #27 Marchment on the road. I have a Roenick #97 Coyotes Alt along with the following defunct jerseys:Canucks Black Road #10 BureCapitals Red Road #90 JuneauStars Home with Black Sleaves #9 ModanoSabres Blue Road #16 LaFontaineSabres White Home # 89 MogilnyJets Road from mid 90s #10 ZhamnovFlyers Orange #17 Brind'AmorePenguins mid 90s Home #20 SmolinskiPenguins "Pittsburgh" Road #93 NedvedFlames Mid 90s Road #25 NieuwendykBruins 80s Home #77 BourqueBruins 80s Road #12 OatesKings Black Road #99 Gretzky (3 Color version)Kings Home #33 McSorley (3 Color version)I missed out on the Nothstars and old Oilers jerseys. Same with Hartford green jersey and Devils Red/Green ones. Wish I could go back in time to pick up these guys. I would love to discuss the collection in depth with any of you here. Just send me a PM on the site with your contact info and we can discuss further.As for customization, I cannot highly recommed Terry's operation enough. He treats me like family and I any issues I have ever had with his work he quickly corrects. In fact, I had a Blue Jays road jersey, the new ones, the first year they came on the market. Terry accidently used the wrong shade of grey in the number. When I pointed this out to him, he paid for the jersey to be sent back to him, redid his work, and sent it back to me at no additional charge. He and his organization are sticklers for correct work. He takes jerseys as serious as we do here. I have been other places to buy customized jerseys but have been so dissatisfied that I end up sending the jersey back to Terry to be stripped and re-customized.

Sodboy13 Posted December 20, 2006 Share Posted December 20, 2006 Spyboy, I'd say it was time for an intervention, if it wasn't for the fact that I'm so damn envious of your collection. (I'd also like tips on storage solutions.) I've got about 80 jerseys total to my name, about 40 of which are hockey. I've been good lately, probably haven't bought one in well over a month, maybe two......and then a 1997 Jim Edmonds Angels navy alternate faux vest came up on eBay. Damn it all. Sold. I'm such a sucker for sleeve numbers.Anyone else feeling like it's time for another "List your jerseys" thread?

(I'd also like tips on storage solutions.) I outgrew my closet sometime ago. I went to Target and bought this exact thing. It will hold up to 200 pretty well and is made really strong and the ends extend out if you start to get overly crowded. Plus, I have a box of supplies sitting on the bottom bars tucked nicley under the jerseys.Problem is, I left 200 in the dust a while back and am now facing a storage crisis. I can cram one rack really full without getting busted but, aside from the fact I don't have space for a second rack, a second one would set off some serious alarms around the house that the collection has indeed been growing despite my claims to the contrary.Folding Garment Rack Click here to read Third String Goalie - The Hockey Jersey of the Day Blog Click here to see my hockey and baseball jersey collection online ?You don?t like to see 20 kids punching 20 other kids.

I have the same jersey, with the padded crest. Bauer (whether or not they were an arm of Nike at the time they began doing this, I don't know) did padded crests for some of the IHL teams, like the Wolves, Aeros, and Ice Dogs. I like it, as a touch that further separates authentics from replicas, and gives the crest a certain 3-D feel.
