thebiggoalie Posted September 6, 2014 Report Share Posted September 6, 2014 I'm really still terrible at this mid 2000's model. Anyone? I think it's good, but I always get nervous on these ones. I'm asking about the jersey itself. Fully plan to strip and re-customize. Hopefully making a trade with the guy. http://www.ebay.com/itm/281426737369?_trksid=p2060778.m1438.l2649&ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT It's legit. (Also, I have a blank of that style in my sales thread for cheaper) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PensJerseys Posted September 6, 2014 Report Share Posted September 6, 2014 I know, and I want to buy it from you to help a brother out, but I'm a midget. I'm also trading away a Kings jersey I want to move anyways. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
A Young Rookie Learnin Posted September 9, 2014 Report Share Posted September 9, 2014 (edited) This cheap usually means too good to be true, even if he was traded.http://www.ebay.com/itm/Ottawa-Senators-Jason-Spezza-jersey-Auth-52-/231324214429?pt=U_Hockey_Fan_Shop&hash=item35dbff649d Edited September 9, 2014 by A Young Rookie Learnin Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LAK74 Posted September 9, 2014 Report Share Posted September 9, 2014 It's fake. The white outer edge of the front crest is not cut accurately, the fight strap attachment looks suspect, and the fabric panels on the back of the jersey are not properly shaped.

richardmanuel Posted September 9, 2014 Report Share Posted September 9, 2014 http://www.ebay.com/itm/New-York-Rangers-Mark-Messier-CCM-Heroes-of-Hockey-Home-Jersey-/261542970826?pt=U_Hockey_Fan_Shop&var=&hash=item3ce52d05ca It looks right, but according to NHL Uniform database, the Rangers didn't wear this style in the year it claims to be (says '93-'94 on the jock tag). The white should not extend all the way to the hem and the sleeve stripe is wrong. It appears to be the later 90's version but without the laced collar. Thoughts?

Devilsguy Posted September 9, 2014 Report Share Posted September 9, 2014 That's one of those "Team Classics / Heroes of Hockey" line that Reebok/CCM has put out in the last 2-4 years. It's a legit replica but the problem is CCM did not do a good job with accuracy, especially with the striping. They have had issues with the accuracy with this line (as well as in the CCM Vintage line) and this is one example. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For the price, you could find an authentic, and for a little extra, get it properly customized with whomever you want. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
enzo269 Posted September 9, 2014 Report Share Posted September 9, 2014 (edited) That is a terrible remake... The Rangers never wore the collared jersey with the red and white hem running together.. The collared jerseys had separated stripes on the hem. The tie down collared jerseys had the red and white stripes running together on the blue jersey.. It may be a legit CCM remake, but very inaccurate! Edited September 9, 2014 by enzo269 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Snaxpak Posted September 10, 2014 Report Share Posted September 10, 2014 How close to an original is this 75th NHL anniversary patch? I'm putting it on a replica, and I don't feel like spending the time to hunt down a authentic. http://www.ebay.com/itm/NHL-75TH-ANNIVERSARY-HOCKEY-PATCH-/261556080718?pt=U_Hockey_Fan_Shop&hash=item3ce5f5104e Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LAK74 Posted September 10, 2014 Report Share Posted September 10, 2014 The patch in that photo is an original. But that is not what you will get if you order it from that seller. You will get a decent-looking repro, but it's not the same as what's in the photo. Trust me, I already ordered that same patch from the seller. She did cheerfully give me a refund, but I did waste some time and money trying to return it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LAK74 Posted September 10, 2014 Report Share Posted September 10, 2014 Btw Snaxpak, if you want to know what that seller's actual patch looks like, let me know. I'm pretty sure I have it somewhere, so I can probably post a picture of it later, if you like. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LAK74 Posted September 11, 2014 Report Share Posted September 11, 2014 FuzzyPenguin, yes, the patch (in that photo at least) is an authentic. Snaxpak, I'll post the pic of the repro patch very soon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LAK74 Posted September 11, 2014 Report Share Posted September 11, 2014 I recently found an original on eBay for $10. Sometimes you get lucky if you look hard enough. Snaxpak, this is the actual patch sold by dawn2dawn2010 (texture shows up a little differently without and with flash). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LAK74 Posted September 11, 2014 Report Share Posted September 11, 2014 I also took 2 closeups which show a couple of the best ways to tell the difference between an authentic and a reproduction. Repro: Authentic: On the repro, if you look at the black borders of the 7, 5 and even the NHL shield, the lines are fairly clean and sharp. On the authentics, the borders are noticeably more fuzzy. It's kind of like drawing a straight line with a fat tip felt pen on a porous surface. The ink bleeds to the left and right of the line, so the edges of the line end up with indistinct, fuzzy borders. If you look at the horizontal bars extending from the left of the 7, the repros tend to have fairly uniformly-shaped bars. On the authentics, the embroidering is less precise and more sloppy-looking. The bars more readily show that they are made up of a series of up-and-down squiggles that resemble a seismographic printout. The lines on the far left are often much more crooked-looking than they appear on most repros. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Silverback53 Posted September 12, 2014 Report Share Posted September 12, 2014 http://pages.ebay.com/link/?nav=item.view&alt=web&id=271601355216 95% sure it is legit, but can someone tell me more about this jersey? Don't see them too often. Lots of opinions about Starter. Thanks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FuzzyPenguin Posted September 12, 2014 Report Share Posted September 12, 2014 It's legit and starter jerseys are pretty nice in my opinion even though I prefer the starter mesh material. That one will be very similar to ultrafil which is nice to. If you want a nice jersey though just go with a penguins jersey Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LAK74 Posted September 12, 2014 Report Share Posted September 12, 2014 Perfectly legit 1996/97 Bruins. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
