Yzermania 156 Report post Posted September 8, 2008 Not sure if this has been posted yet, but I found it to be interesting and informative. We bought a Cutler "Authentic" Broncos jersey on eBay a year ago for about $30 and it's actually pretty nice... I guess it just kind of depends who you buy these jerseys from. Sometimes the color or stitching is off... you just have to know your jerseys. I can spot a fake right away. I guess it's because after buying $300 Avalanche edge jersey and I know what a real jersey should look and feel like as far as fabric and quality... Here are some photos of 3 jerseys I bought off ebay (the Datsyuk and Cutler jerseys) and then the Zetterberg jersey was bought off another site from China. If you look closely at the two red wings jerseys in person there are subtle differences which let you know that they're not real... even though they're not bad jerseys they still are not Rbk. But if you're on a tight budget, $50 for a decent jersey isn't too bad. Look closely and the two tags and NHL emblems, notice size and color variances. The jerseys themselves don't look that bad but the names and numbers are attrocious. Wrong font and numbers, nameplates, etc, quite terrible at any price.

soultrain 43 Report post Posted September 9, 2008 hey, for like 22 bucks, id take that fake jersey in a heartbeat. im really waiting to see if this actually works out for you guys, cause i will be all over this. so please keep the info coming! so i placed an order one week ago...confirmed payment on sept. 1st. haven't heard anything so i called them. they confirmed my payment again, they also told me in 24 hrs i will be getting my shipping tracking number. after the crap jersey i got from nhl.com (made in indonisia, by the way) if i get a junker that was a small amount worse quality... it will be well worth it. so i hope i get that jersey! i paid $30 for the shipping, so it was like $50 total. i will let you know when i get it, and if it is too cheesy to buy one for yourself.

soultrain 43 Report post Posted September 9, 2008 I JUST BOUGHT A REPLICA JERSEY FROM NHL.COM. I SENT THEM THIS EMAIL AFTER I OPENED MY PACKAGE. I am totally dissatisfied with the lack of quality of the RBK EDGE JERSEY. with PLASTIC IRON ON FRONT CREST, SHOULDER LOGOS AND LETTERING! You sold me an $85 piece of trash! I will never buy an RBK EDGE JERSEY again! replica, or authentic! I mislead myself thinking that you wouldn't use such cheap materials. i will now buy my CCM jerseys from EBAY or CHINA!!! this is almost robbery! I will let all my hockey friends know how cheaply made the products you sell are especially the RBK EDGE JERSEYS! i will tell them not to buy a jersey due to the lack of quality, for the price you pay. EVEN THE AUTHENTIC QUALITY IS GARBAGE! i am posting this comment on any hockey message board i find, regarding the RBK EDGE JERSEY. stop selling crap. EVEN FROM NHL.COM THE RBK JERSEYS SUCK. GOT THIS TODAY FROM NHL.COM> Date: Monday, September 8, 2008, 8:27 PM > Dear Ross, > > > Thank you for contacting Customer Service at > www.shop.nhl.com. > > We sincerely apologize for any inconvenience or > disappointment caused. > > We are very sorry to hear of your dissatisfaction with the > jersey.

SO I SENT THEM THIS GUY! what a cheese reply! THIS IS A MESSAGE TO THE PEOPLE THAT GIVE THE "GO AHEAD" TO USE SUCH CHEAP MATERIALS AND CHEAP LABOR! I can't be the only person to complain about the lack of quality of the RBK EDGE JERSEY. Do you plan on addressing the fact that you are putting out trash jerseys, and you charge top dollar for it..MADE IN INDONESIA! The PLASTIC IRON ON LOGOS AND LETTERING are not the only issue. I thought this was "new uniform technology", but the t-shirt/sweatshirt hybrid material that the jersey is made of feels very cheap! REPLICA OR AUTHENTIC! and you don't want people to buy fakes! bad business. you will see your profits dwindle after you make YOUR money and rip off more people(FANS!). The word will spread further about the garbage RBK EDGE JERSEY. i now understand that the OFFICIAL ON-LINE STORE FOR THE NHL does not care about selling a quality product. i bet your mark up is 850 percent. ITS A SHAME THAT YOU SOLD OUT QUALITY CONTROL FOR THE RBK CONTRACT...do you people wear these UGLY and cheap pieces of trash? i bet you people don't wear them. YOU NEED NEW MARKETING PEOPLE. also your clothing is not very appealing. YOU NEED NEW MARKETING PEOPLE. who thought of the "pepto pink" sparkle women's jersey. do you have test groups? if so where do you find these people? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
