3CUPSN9 Posted April 17, 2009 Share Posted April 17, 2009 I didn't look over it that throughly, but it looks pretty much like the same as the set 2 list minus both Shanahan's again. Someone is getting those Shanahan's. Funny, how his Rangers jerseys didn't tend to move as fast as his Devils ones. Also two new Rangers of his were just added. I was curious to see what his Devils would cost, $2000? $2500? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
slimegoat Posted April 17, 2009 Share Posted April 17, 2009 This is garbage, but at least it is a newer player. The old stuff make me cringe. I think Dixon had a Shanahan Devils cut up which really, really upsets me... I do wonder where it came from. Meigray will readily admit to selling jerseys to card companies, but they always tend to sell the ones with the least wear, as they are less desireable to purchasers of the full jerseys. The card companies will also troll the auction sites and gameworn forums looking for deals. I remember having a JF Damphousse preseason shirt that was also worn previously by Mike Dunham. One of the card companies gave me $750 for it, but I only paid $110 or $120. A rare profit in the resale market. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
slimegoat Posted April 17, 2009 Share Posted April 17, 2009 Perusing the Meigray site now. Just noticed Madden took a nosedive from $750 to $495. I guess the older shirts were left at the higher price in anticipation of the Summer sale. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Did the company contact you out of the blue with an offer? That would put it at about a 35% markdown, which is probably what you'll see come July during the sale. Either that or 40% off. I'm expecting the sale terms to stay the same as last year when i open up the packet Expo morning. I still have a feeling we'll be able to get 07-08 jerseys at 50% off. Even if the offer is 40% off of one jersey, I think they might do buy one get one free again, which we can use for 50% saving by partnering up with someone, or just buy two (which averages out to 50% savings on each).

slimegoat Posted April 17, 2009 Share Posted April 17, 2009 How does something like that even transpire? Did the company contact you out of the blue with an offer? I'm thinking they saw one of those "What Devils do you own?" threads on one of the forums, since I have no website with my collection. They emailed me with the offer. And, since I had picked up a hammered Damphousse Moncton Wildcats (much cooler shirt), I didn't think twice about parting with the Devils preseason, especially making over $600 profit on it. Then, JF was traded, and I lost interest in the Moncton shirt and sold that, too. In fact, I never seem to keep any goalie jerseys for long. There are a few in the collection now, but in the past I have sold a bunch, including a great Corey Schwab Tampa Bay Lightning alternate w/ All Star patch, that I sort of regretted later.

DevilinLA Posted April 18, 2009 Author Share Posted April 18, 2009 (edited) I spoke with Meigray yesterday. Just a few updates. They said something to the affect of this: 1.) Expo will be June 12th, not sure of the discount but Summer sale will proceed after that. 2.) Estimated discount (20% on 08-09), (30 -40% - 07-08), but again they haven't reached a final decision. 3.) No discounts on pre-orders. 4.) Devils set III's started on April 3rd. 5.) They were contemplating raising some jerseys (Especially set III"s this year) but given the economy deciding against it (not sure what they meant here). But I think this is tied to how many they have of certain players in inventory and who may be wearing multiple sweaters this year. You can imagine my frustration last night in addition to the OT loss as I preordered the LANGS RED Set III yesterday (As he goes off the ice w/an injury). Please come back for game 5 Jamie!!! Hope this helps some..... BTW - Any good photos of game wear for matches are always appreciated!!!!! Edited April 18, 2009 by DevilinLA Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chorske17 Posted April 18, 2009 Share Posted April 18, 2009 1.) Expo will be June 12th, not sure of the discount but Summer sale will proceed after that. It is the12th of July correct? Just wanted to make sure they didn't change it to a Friday! 2.) Estimated discount (20% on 08-09), (30 -40% - 07-08), but again they haven't reached a final decision. Not quite what we all hoped for (50%), but some of us predicted as much. I wonder what they will do? There are several items I'm interested in, but nothing I have "HAVE TO HAVE". Price will dictate where I spend my money. 3.) No discounts on pre-orders. Not really a shocker, but sometimes you can get a deal or two if you have purchased a good bit from them in past. Sorry you didn't luck out. 5.) They were contemplating raising some jerseys (Especially set III"s this year) but given the economy deciding against it (not sure what they meant here). But I think this is tied to how many they have of certain players in inventory and who may be wearing multiple sweaters this year.You can imagine my frustration last night in addition to the OT loss as I preordered the LANGS RED Set III yesterday (As he goes off the ice w/an injury). Please come back for game 5 Jamie!!! Sorry to hear about your set 3; hopefully it is not anything that he cannot come back from. The first thing, I thought, thank god I did not reserve a set 3 Lags. Sorry again. Glad I got the Rolston even though his point totals were not nearly as much as I had hoped. As for MeiGray raising prices (again?)... Why? I do not understand this thought process, but will wait to see what they say officially. BTW - Any good photos of game wear for matches are always appreciated!!!!! Post your sweaters on webshots and I think you find "someone" to help you. Let me know when you do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KC Devil Posted April 18, 2009 Share Posted April 18, 2009 I got a BARGAIN offer from Meigray with a consignment (they do not set the price, I know). I had requested a Colin White rookie jersey with Dave Hall (who is the best, as far as I am concerned). It is the only year that I am missing from my Colin White collection (of course, I have multiples of some years). I have never, personally, seen a White rookie jersey out there, but got "the call" Thursday from Dave. A consignment White rookie jersey was at Meigray. It is a Red, set I, with the Stanley Cup play-offs patch added (by the team), I guess to use as a reserve. That patch, evidently, is worth around $400, since this particular jersey is priced at $895, compared to his normal jerseys at $495. In case you are on the edge or your seat in anticipation.......I passed on it! Mike Martin KC Devil Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KC Devil Posted April 18, 2009 Share Posted April 18, 2009 (edited) It's a set 1 if it's got the Cup patch. I have two from that year and they both have tremendous wear, but for that price i got both my Daneyko and Madden cheaper then that White. It's about 20% marked up based on MeiGray's cut of the deal. Yeah, it's the Cup patch. That is what I meant by SC play-offs patch......should have stated SCF patch. Yeah......WAY too high. Even take the $179.00 off (20%), I am STILL not interested in a $716.00 Colin White jersey. Unless it was USED in the Finals. It will sit for awhile, I believe.

DevilinLA Posted April 18, 2009 Author Share Posted April 18, 2009 Chorske17, Yeah my bad, I meant JULY 12th for the expo. Langs out for 2 games...really sucks.

section227 Posted April 18, 2009 Share Posted April 18, 2009 Langs out for 2 games...really sucks. I hope he comes back and puts on that Red home set at least once more....preferably many more times!!!!! Bad for the team, bad for the playoffs, just plain bad. On the bright side, I sort of like jerseys with a story, even if it means less wear. Whatever happens in the playoffs, JL's injury will be a big part of the story. To me, owning a part of that story is what makes this hobby fun! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Any thoughts guys? Granted if they don't go beyond the 1st round the white set will have zero wear. But I guess there's a chance he'll back in red for Game 5 @ the Rock (hopefully more). At least he scored a playoff goal in it. I did see him get pulled something fierce in it last night. One thing that sucks is the SET III"s started late 4/03 so very few games in terms of wear.

JWomp Posted April 18, 2009 Share Posted April 18, 2009 I think it's safe to say the days of the 50% off and buy one get one aren't coming back. You might be right about this for the future, but I swore that the most recent sale was 40% off OR buy one, get one free. Am I wrong about that?

Chorske17 Posted April 18, 2009 Share Posted April 18, 2009 (edited) DevilinLa, If you want to move the Lags when you get it, contact me. I don't have a red set yet and I cannot find one for sale. I'm trying to get one of every year he played, but am missing a few: 96-97 Dallas Lags 98-99 Dallas Lags 00-01 Dallas Lags 03-04 New Jersey Lags 06-07 New Jersey Lags 08-09 New Jersey Lags Jordan, I believe it was at one time 40% and if you buy 2 it is both for 50%. It all blends together so I don't totally remember it 100%. I'm planning on saving some cash regardless. Currently, I have a "Parise" set aside and hope to be in the ball park of a "Guerin" shortly. Regardless of what happens it will go to my collection. EDITTED FOR STUPIDITY. Edited July 1, 2009 by Chorske17 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jordan Jordan, that is a Guerin and currently the ONLY Devils one I've ever seen. Would like to own it, but $$$ WOW!!! When I said "Parise" and "Guerin" I meant about saving up the that amount in monetary funds... Sorry I didn't mean to suggest I was going to take the Guerin... I'd love to own one too, but that means someone else from the collection gotta' go to make room for him. Friesen would be awesome to have too. Too many that I want to own and not enough $ to buy them... so I gotta' choose just like you and the fabled Gionta. Stinks, but at least we get something we like.
