mlaval Posted June 17, 2010 Report Share Posted June 17, 2010 (edited) (sorry I screwed up the title... I meant blank fake) I just curious, has anyone encountered blank (no customization) fake RBK Edge jerseys yet? Or are fakes only customized jerseys. I understand one might strip a fake one but I guess this is really rare.

akteon Posted June 18, 2010 Report Share Posted June 18, 2010 They are definitely out there, just not common (yet). Anytime I want to see if there's something new on the fake scene to be aware of, I check DHGate. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jawnman Posted July 13, 2010 Report Share Posted July 13, 2010 Well, most of them do LOOK real. Most of them. To people that know what to look for, you can see the difference like you can smell a fart in a car. I have sold some of these jerseys (you don't have to say it I know.. I did make some good money though). Anyways, some of them look like absolute crap, some look pretty close, I guess depending where they're made, I don't know. Most of them have the cheapest looking fight straps, and the patch that is sewn on the fight strap is generally the same material the jersey is made out of, which most of you know is not consistent with a real pro jersey. Though I have a white Selanne Jets jersey and a Cammalleri flames jersey that have the same heavy fight straps that are on real pro jerseys, and my blue Selanne jersey has the cheap strap, but like I said, the material that holds them on is WAY different from the real deal. The weight of the jerseys are also quite different, even though my friend has a real Edge jersey (Luongo), that we actually bought for him from icejerseys.com that isn't all that heavy. I basically came up with this comparison by putting the fakes side by side with a game-worn Manitoba Moose jersey that I have. Basically what I saying is the real tell-tale signs are the fight straps and quality of the stitching.. and in some cases the smell, I wear my knock-offs for pick up and floor hockey, and my Cammalleri gets a fishy smell too it after it gets a little moisture on it, I have to wash it like 3 times and febreeze it to get the smell out.. anybody thinking about it, yes it's ridiculously cheap, and Gary Bettman doesn't make any money from it.. but it's still alot nicer having the real thing, especially if it's game-used or game-ready Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andub Posted July 13, 2010 Report Share Posted July 13, 2010 The best looking fakes are the flyers black rbk edge jersey. Alot of people get easily fooled on them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
saviola7hk Posted September 19, 2010 Report Share Posted September 19, 2010 Unfortunately, fake edge blank is out everywhere. I bought a Penguins edge fake on ebay a year ago, and returned to the seller immediately. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
