WhalersNation Posted September 29, 2011 Report Share Posted September 29, 2011 Looks like a CCM Maska jersey. I have a 1990's Penguins one, and the tag is similar. However, I think we need more pics (although this could be my in-training eye for this kinda thing). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SirBrad Posted September 29, 2011 Report Share Posted September 29, 2011 Newbie here! This looks like a good bet to me. I was considering taking advantage of River City's $169.99 sale, but have read too many negative things about them and this jersey looks spot on to me. Thanks in advance. http://www.ebay.com/itm/150648433360?ssPageName=STRK:MEWAX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1423.l2649#ht_513wt_1044 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheMadHat Posted September 29, 2011 Report Share Posted September 29, 2011 Is this authentic? http://www.ebay.com/itm/1993-NHL-STANLEY-CUP-FINAL-100TH-ANNIVERSARY-LOGO-PATCH-/390349548354?pt=U_Hockey_Fan_Shop&hash=item5ae2a56b42#ht_1932wt_1165 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CJ Matthews Posted September 29, 2011 Report Share Posted September 29, 2011 According to a note on my saved sellers list, at one point or another I was told that that seller sells fake patches, and that I should avoid them. Dunno if that's still the case. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

From what I can tell it does look legit, but my concern would be the customization. I know the Pens use Glacier twill (zig-zag pattern on the white layer) and I can't tell from that pic if it is there. Also I know there has been some issues regarding the captains "C" on Pens jerseys and customizers not getting it just right. Hopefully one of our Pens experts can weight in here. As for the seller they are not known to sell fakes and I think I've bought from them before without incident. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've purchased a few things from them and they were all reproductions, but pretty good ones. This SC 100th anny patch looks pretty decent compared to others I've seen.

brandon Posted September 29, 2011 Report Share Posted September 29, 2011 Patch collection has real nice replica patches. Avoid the guy from Laval, Quebec though. I forget his username but his are pretty bad. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If I email him one more question he will probably spit on the jersey if I do eventually buy it. I have had a hell of a time finding this jersey with correct customization and am hoping this is finally the winner. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LAK74 Posted September 29, 2011 Report Share Posted September 29, 2011 Avoid the guy from Laval, Quebec though. I forget his username but his are pretty bad. You're probably referring to "thedealer," who I believe has recently changed the username to "thedealer77.". I only bought one patch from them but it was pretty good. Also I think the seller might be a "she.". Or at least that's what the return address indicated. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brandon Posted September 29, 2011 Report Share Posted September 29, 2011 Yeah thats the guy... err girl. Either way, I thought the stuff I got there was super bad, not even close in proper size let alone materials etc, nothing I would put on a jersey.

Yep, buying repros is always a risk, although fortunately patches don't usually cost very much. I'd be a lot more pissed if a jersey turned out to be totally unusable!

As for the seller they are not known to sell fakes and I think I've bought from them before without incident. Dudes, if you're in the market for a Crosby Pens jersey I can tell you with all confidence that RCS will get it exactly right...at least, they did a great job on mine. Perfect materials and craftsmanship, glacier twill, the correct captain's "C" (which is more than I can say for Vintage Minnesota, who completely biffed the "A" on my 2010 Jordan Staal). It's so common that I imagine they probably do a lot of them and therefore have a lot of practice! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

slimcutta Posted September 29, 2011 Report Share Posted September 29, 2011 Is this authentic? http://www.ebay.com/...#ht_1932wt_1165 Often sellers use a pic of an authentic patch, but send a replica. Note the '5 available' beside the quantity...not a good sign. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dsl135 Posted September 30, 2011 Report Share Posted September 30, 2011 http://www.customthrowbackjerseys.com/ Has anyone ever ordered from here? They seem to have lots of good, old style jerseys, with correct fonts and everything. Prices aren't low, but they aren't extortionate either.

They seem to have lots of good, old style jerseys, with correct fonts and everything. Prices aren't low, but they aren't extortionate either. The few I looked at didn't appear to match up well at all. Kind of odd that they would post a picture of an authentic when the differences are glaring. I looked at 70s NYR...color off, stripes not right thickness Cleveland Crusaders...patch way too small, stripes not right thickness Seems like they went and found a company that had close approximations to the design in their stock catalog and just went from there.

They seem to have lots of good, old style jerseys, with correct fonts and everything. Prices aren't low, but they aren't extortionate either. I only bought one jersey from them so I can't say everything they sell is bad, but what I received was the most disappointing jersey that I've ever ordered- in short, complete crap. The jersey looks fake, and the crest is completely inaccurate and way too small. It's my impression they're starting with blank crestless jerseys that resemble the ones they're trying to copy, and then slapping a crest patch on top. This might explain why they have every available size of every jersey they sell, even models that CCM no longer makes in their vintage series. On the customization, the twill looked cheap, the colors were slightly off, letters way too small. Even the stitching was mediocre- adjacent stitch points were nearly 3mm apart. Of the nearly 50 jerseys that I own, this is one of 3 that I will never wear. One of the other two is a fake, and the other was customized by NHL.com. Enough said.

KevinBe Posted October 1, 2011 Report Share Posted October 1, 2011 Hi guys. I just stumbled across this Detroit Vipers blank on Ebay and I wanted to see your thoughts on it. If it's authentic, I just might have to figure out a way to put together a Kevin Weekes jersey. http://www.ebay.com/itm/200656501542?ssPageName=STRK:MEWAX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1438.l2649 I'm also thinking about grabbing this Beezer jersey for my little bro's Christmas present if it's real. http://www.ebay.com/itm/Vtg-90s-Starter-John-Vanbiesbrouck-Florida-Panthers-NHL-Hockey-Jersey-Mens-Large-/120786528436?pt=U_Hockey_Fan_Shop&hash=item1c1f7028b4 Thanks for the help!

These jerseys (Maska 1990's replicas) tended to be rather cheaply constructed though, and made of a thin material that snagged really easily. Snags don't tend to show up well in photos, so I would ask about that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's all right though, I just found a cool Pro Player Flyers jersey anyways, so i may end up bidding on that (and hopefully win this time).

The ProPlayer will undoubtedly be a much better quality replica than the CCM. Good luck on the auction! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
