eball Posted May 3, 2008 Share Posted May 3, 2008 For anyone wanting a McKelvin jersey, why not buy the Thomas and get a replacement name plate? If it's less than $66, you've got a steal. Better act quick, though...the Bills will probably figure that out sooner rather than later. Link Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ndirish1978 Posted May 3, 2008 Share Posted May 3, 2008 I still think Ebay is the best place for that stuff. I got an awesome Whitner jersey with everything hand-stitched for $47. I mean that's ridiculous Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BillsWatch Posted May 3, 2008 Share Posted May 3, 2008 Hardy is shown with #2 jersey but is going to wear #81. Never heard of making a special jersey for a 2nd round pick. First yes but not 2nd. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

marauderswr80 Posted June 7, 2008 Share Posted June 7, 2008 Yeah I agree Ebay is the place to get this stuff or any deal matter of fact. 2 years ago when the Bills played the Jags and were still in the playoff hunt, I got 2 tickets to the game 50 yard line 12 rows from the field visitors side.....120 bucks.....cant beat that! Not for those seats. You should see my Chipper Jones & Lee Evans collection of game used memrobilia of both guys I got off Ebay, if you spend the time with Ebay you can really make some money or get a great deal. I have a friend who makes a living on Ebay. He goes to garage sales, salvation army, thrift stores, he has an idea of whats hot on Ebay, and what Antiques are wanted and buys them for cheap and sells them for way more then what he paid. He found a vacuum at a garage sale, put it on Ebay and it sold for 1,500 bucks.....not to mention he only paid 10 bucks for it....... Ebay is also the place I get all my Bills gear, other then when I make my yearly trips to 1 Bills Drive for games. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PromoTheRobot Posted June 7, 2008 Share Posted June 7, 2008 If the Bills were smart they would rename those old jerseys first. Even if they just cover the old name plate. PTR Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lori Posted June 7, 2008 Share Posted June 7, 2008 If the Bills were smart they would rename those old jerseys first. Even if they just cover the old name plate. PTR Yup. $20 for me to get an aftermarket nameplate change, and that's with sewn lettering. Probably half that to do a screened replica, and then they get $75 for the jersey instead of $10.

clownments22 Posted June 7, 2008 Share Posted June 7, 2008 If the Bills were smart they would rename those old jerseys first. Even if they just cover the old name plate. PTR Since the players themselves get $ when people buy their jersies, I bet there is a complication involved with that issue that stops them from doing that.

Buftex Posted June 7, 2008 Share Posted June 7, 2008 Last summer, when I was in Buffalo, I got a Donte Whitner #36 jersey for 5.99 at one of the stores in the Boulevard Mall...that was a great score...they had dozens of them...as I recall, McGahee jerseys were the same price....didn't buy one of those!

I mean that's ridiculous I got a "Home" Lynch jersey for $60 at Christmas time off of E-Bay. It was a good deal I thought, but people tell me it's not a real authentic jersey. I haven't worn it since the "supposed" hit-and-run. I'm sure I'll get a few comments from people when I do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Probably half that to do a screened replica, and then they get $75 for the jersey instead of $10. I know this has been asked a million times but does anyone know a place to get an authentic jersey renamed? I have a Losman authentic and for obvious reasons I'd like to get it switched to something else. I know there is an old thread with some links in it but the one that specialized in authentics got in trouble by the nfl for trademark violations or something. Since it's an authentic jersey, I just want to make sure the numbers and name font and color trim is exactly the same as it should be (not just some generic stuff from a print shop). Any help would be appreciated Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Place near my house called Embroider Me did a Troy Vincent home, Drew Bledsoe away, and Takeo Spikes throwback with all the correct lettering, hand stitched, flawless nameplates, 14 dollars per.

granitestatebillsbackers Posted June 8, 2008 Share Posted June 8, 2008 I won an autographed Marshawn Lynch game jersey (the real deal) with a Buffalo Bills certificate of authenticity at a charity silent auction out here. Any idea of what that's worth? Everything on E-Bay is just those hand-sewn jerseys--hard to check the pricing. (The donation was brokered by One Communications, apparently.) Incidentally, the guy that was bidding against me was Tom Lynch, a lineman from the 80s era. He was very gracious and signed my auction program. We had a great conversation about the "old days."

A custom "authentic" jersey sells for $270 in the stadium store. (Strangely, neither bb.com nor NFLShop has any current players' authentics for sale.) If it's team-issued and signed, I'd probably add another $80-100. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The jersey came about via One Communications--our telecomm provider at the college (Daniel Webster College in Nashua, NH) as well a Bills sponsor. Love Two Bills Drive, btw. Great site!

generaLee83 Posted June 8, 2008 Share Posted June 8, 2008 You never know, an Anthony Thomas jersey might come back in style. This might not be a bad investment at this point in time. The Anthony Thomas trend has great staying power, I'm thinking of buying 1000. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
