It often amazes me the lengths people will go to in order to just use whatever packaging they have in hand. I, of course, order stacks and stacks of Priority boxes to make sure I'm always covered. They are near perfect for jersey shipping IMHO. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Although I've also been using double layer mylar bags, but only for practice jerseys that don't have crests. That said, the seller was very nice and we worked out a deal I'm satisfied with.

Guest Dr_Puck Posted January 29, 2019 Report Share Posted January 29, 2019 Jersey Packing 101 is one of the more helpful courses that's offered here at IJ. I've learned quite a bit about shipping my jerseys with care. I cringe when companies and teams are haphazard about doing it for my own purchases.

jsh139 Posted January 29, 2019 Report Share Posted January 29, 2019 Jersey I got yesterday came in a USPS tyvek envelope within a cardboard flat-rate envelope. It looked like a bulged up letter about to explode. I checked the prices online and the guy saved about 25 cents by using priority flat-rate envelope instead of normal priority box. Wtf.

Very true, but the postage fee is higher on those, has to be 3 jerseys or more to be worth it, agree? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jsh139 Posted January 30, 2019 Report Share Posted January 30, 2019 Waited about a year for this one to be delivered to DHC. Former Flyer, Nick Cousins, 2017-18 home set 1 with NHL 100 patch. Has a nice slash across the crest, two repairs on the left sleeve, and general pilling throughout. Nice! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mdwsta4 Posted January 31, 2019 Report Share Posted January 31, 2019 Northeastern mail day!!! John Stevens Jr Added the Frozen Fenway patch to the Davies jersey which is the actual jersey worn in the game, but the patch was removed and jersey was played in for the remainder of the season. I now have both Davies gamers from this season also had a new nameplate sewn on since the team removed it when they sold it And finally the jersey I wanted from the getgo, a Dylan Sikura. Stripped another player, cleaned up a crap ton of residue, found CCM patches and had it all put together. Only downside is EPS didn't sew down the CCM logo on the front (even thought they charged me for it). So this has to go back What I find extremely interesting about NE jerseys is the inconsistency with the rear numbers. On some jerseys they're huge and go all the way down the lower stripes. On others, they're not. I have examples of both ways which I find really odd. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mfitz804 Posted February 4, 2019 Report Share Posted February 4, 2019 (edited) Recently started collecting goalie jerseys, and started doing practice jerseys again as well. So imagine how pleased I was to find this one on eBay. It took 3 weeks to arrive from Germany, but I am happy to add it to the collection. A 58G suits me just fine, but I prefer a 58+G for the extra sleeve length. This one was listed as 58G and I didn't notice in the pictures, but its actually a 58+G which is even better. I have to say though, German Guy, horrible job on the packing. It was shipped in a shoe box, not wrapped or anything, and the box was taped once around the short way, and once the long way. It got smashed and all 4 corners were open and the jersey exposed by the time it arrived. It got a little dirty/dusty, as you can see in the pictures, but it should clean up nicely. Very happy to have it in my collection. Edited February 4, 2019 by mfitz804 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheDithyK Posted February 4, 2019 Report Share Posted February 4, 2019 Some recent pickups. They're all gamers/camp worn. Rebels and Team Canada are NFS, the Devils is FT for any MiC Adidas smaller than it (it's a size 58) and the Broncos is available. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JJM4 Posted February 8, 2019 Report Share Posted February 8, 2019 Great pick up Spud! I was happy to get this remake in today. A 1975 North Stars, ultrafil with double elbows and shoulders, fight strap etc. I think it's the first jersey I've ever acquired via trade.
