DevsMan84 Posted October 6, 2015 Share Posted October 6, 2015 The Elias jerseys usually sell at the summer and holiday sales. The Henrique jerseys weren't. I think they figured to swap them to see if it makes a difference. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lemieux16 Posted October 6, 2015 Share Posted October 6, 2015 We will see. I wanted one of the Elias' from them but not sure if that will happen now Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DevsMan84 Posted October 29, 2015 Share Posted October 29, 2015 Anyone bidding on the HFC practice jerseys? I will not be. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lemieux16 Posted October 29, 2015 Share Posted October 29, 2015 I'm not. Little to rich for my blood for a practice jersey even though they are sweet and go to a great cause. Still waiting to see what the hockey auctions and the Meigray sale has to offer while I do a couple little things in the meantime. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DevsMan84 Posted October 29, 2015 Share Posted October 29, 2015 Yeah the prices are crazy for shirts that were worn in just a single warmup. More money to charity so at least that's the good part. I kind of went on an Andy Greene jersey spending frenzy the last 2-3 weeks. I got 2 regular season shirts, a development camp shirt and one more special shirt of his on the way:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lemieux16 Posted October 29, 2015 Share Posted October 29, 2015 That's what I'm happy for. I hope all of those warm ups go for big money for charity. That's a pretty awesome 2-3 weeks for you haha. Are you one of the lucky ones to pre order his first Captins jerseys? I actually sold my Greene jersey in hopes to use it to get one of his from last year with an A. However a different jersey came was offered to me and my money is going towards that one at the moment. It's gonna be great to get that in!

DevsMan84 Posted October 29, 2015 Share Posted October 29, 2015 I actually wasn't, but that doesn't bother me. I will get a captains jersey eventually. I know who got his first red one but don't know who got the white one. Regardless he will wear at least 4 more this year and 6 more next year. Won't be in short supply lol. With the new one coming to me I will have 7 total Andy Greene's. He is my 3rd favorite Devils of all time and probably the one I will have a focus on in my collecting. My top 2 are Elias (his jerseys are now becoming/are expensive) and Peluso (jerseys are hard to find and they are expensive), so Greene is at a nice price and availability is good. Here is my current Greene collection: 07-08 White Set 1 (Edge 1.0) - Photomatched to 2 hockey cards 08-09 White Set 1 13-14 White Set 2 - Photomatched 13-14 Retro Night 14-15 Red Set 3 - Photomatched to Getty and to a pic I took at the 3/29/15 game where I sat 2 rows behind the bench 07-08 Development Camp - trying to match this but pretty certain he wore this as there is no nameplate 06-07 AHL All Star Game - Team Planet USA - Worn in 2nd period **This is the one I am waiting to receive.

Lemieux16 Posted October 29, 2015 Share Posted October 29, 2015 Wow man! That's a great collection on Greene jerseys. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DevsMan84 Posted October 29, 2015 Share Posted October 29, 2015 (edited) Thanks and got 4 Greene jerseys off the top of my head that I would like to add to the collection, but that would be down the road. One is a captain's jersey which I can get later on. The others are a Lowell Devils Greene, a 2012 SCF Greene and the other is a SS Greene. For SS Greene, he has the 3rd period one. The warmup is with the NHLPA and the first period one got cut up and put into hockey cards (I actually got one and it sucks to see it like that:(. However, I do know who has the 2nd period one lol. Have no idea who has one of his SCF jerseys and who has one of his Lowell Devils jerseys. Edited October 29, 2015 by DevsMan84 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lemieux16 Posted October 29, 2015 Share Posted October 29, 2015 Those all would be great additions to an already sweet collection. I see Meigray put up a bunch of retro equipment from the past 2 years. I can't get over $400 for the retro gloves. That's pretty crazy. I'm in the process of picking up a 2012 SCF jersey but it's not Greene haha. Sorry! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DevsMan84 Posted October 29, 2015 Share Posted October 29, 2015 Nice! I got contacted by Meigray too but passed on it. Which one are you getting? As for the gloves, not really into equipment. They look cool but just not my thing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lemieux16 Posted October 29, 2015 Share Posted October 29, 2015 I'm getting a Salvador SCF jersey. It's the only one I have so far. It's gonna be a great piece to my collection. I'm excited for it. I'm not big into equipment either but it would be cool to have some retro equipment on my bookcase with a couple other things I got. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DevsMan84 Posted November 4, 2015 Share Posted November 4, 2015 Anyone get one of the HFC jerseys that ended last night? I didn't bid on anything and they went for crazy money. At least the charity got a lot of money. Always good to see a good cause making a ton. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Souray44 Posted November 4, 2015 Share Posted November 4, 2015 Happy for the charity for sure but very surprised that a warmup jersey went so high. I'm sure Marty night gamers will be nuts. Funny that people can get a gamer from Meigray with wear and worn over a period for less than what the practice jersey went for. But what ever floats everyone's boat. I was in on a stick then I felt the price got stupid so I stepped away from it. I will wait for when Meigray gets equipemnt and will get for less than half what this stick went for.

DevsMan84 Posted November 4, 2015 Share Posted November 4, 2015 (edited) Also did a quick summary of the final bids for the HFC jerseys and below is the list. Total amount raised is $18,311.00. Also to note, I got my 2015 retro night Gelinas and my Stadium Series Josefson for less than what they sold for here. Adam Henrique $ 2,175.00 Eric Gelinas $ 976.00 Patrik Elias $ 925.00 Jordin Tootoo $ 925.00 Cory Schneider $ 900.00 Stephen Gionta $ 875.00 Andy Greene $ 875.00 Mike Cammalleri $ 785.00 Adam Larsson $ 775.00 Mascot $ 775.00 Travis Zajac $ 750.00 John Moore $ 700.00 Bobby Farnham $ 675.00 Lee Stempniak $ 625.00 Jacob Josefson $ 600.00 Jon Merrill $ 600.00 Damon Severson $ 600.00 Kyle Palmieri $ 575.00 David Schlemko $ 575.00 Brian O'Neill $ 550.00 Keith Kinkaid $ 550.00 Sergey Kalinin $ 525.00 Jiri Tlusty $ 525.00 Tuomo Ruutu $ 475.00 Edited November 4, 2015 by DevsMan84 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Souray44 Posted November 4, 2015 Share Posted November 4, 2015 The Mascot! Damn. I never would have guessed he would have been more than a regular game. My Henrique rookie scf is the price of the purple warmup. Great dollar total for charity! Affects so many people so the more they can do to raise for a cause like this the better. Love it!

Lemieux16 Posted November 4, 2015 Share Posted November 4, 2015 Those are crazy prices for a warm up but it's great for charity!! Glad they could raise so much just from our teams collectors! Hope they raise that or more for every team!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lemieux16 Posted November 5, 2015 Share Posted November 5, 2015 Did anyone else see that Meigray has listed the SCF White set 2 on the site? Some of those prices are cheaper then the warm ups auction haha Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DevsMan84 Posted November 6, 2015 Share Posted November 6, 2015 This fanbase when it comes to memorabilia and collectibles are fickle on a good day, but largely dumb as a doorknob on most days. Spending more money on a Henrique warmup jersey when with that same money on a Zajac SCF game worn and still have a few hundred left over defies logic. That's why I said collectors didn't bid on those as they know the real value of these and thus largely did not bid on them. I've sold various teams items through various means whether it be Facebook or eBay or any other means, and the Devils fans are the worst. No other fanbase are as fickle, dumb about value and just plain cheap as Devils fans. End rant. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DevsMan84 Posted November 6, 2015 Share Posted November 6, 2015 (edited) Or maybe people were more willing to drop $1,000+ when they knew the money was being donated to Hockey Fights Cancer.....While I understand there is always the inflation of prices on these charity auctions due to the cause, I largely do not buy that.The same fans that piss and moan and cry poverty over $250 game worns and $120 replicas are suddenly inspired and wealthy enough to drop $1000+ on a practice jersey worn in a single warmup. Hell there is a collector who posts here on this thread who offered to sell his game worn Henrique that is photo matched and worn in a dozen games for less than $700 to a person who was willing to drop $1500+ on that warmup worn Henrique jersey. She declined and her reason was literally "well this one is purple." That's where both the dumb and fickle part comes in. People who bought these jerseys are not collectors. Plus the other factor was that the devils were finally advertising this auction when I'm the past for retro night and other auctions they never mentioned them.

mfitz804 Posted November 7, 2015 Share Posted November 7, 2015 Or maybe people were more willing to drop $1,000+ when they knew the money was being donated to Hockey Fights Cancer..... Yup. People pay stupid prices when charity is involved, I've seen it both in this context and in others. Plus, you can't even complain about the prices, it was an auction. If they were listing them for straight up sale, the prices would have been lower. But when people start bidding against each other, this kind of stuff happens. And, as pointed out above, they were advertising it where in the past, casual fans didn't even know about it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
