Custom Jersey Lettering on Long Island...

Does anybody know of a place that does sewn on lettering for jerseys other than Amity Sports?

Amity charges 90$ which is a ripoff considering they charge 15$ just because you already own the jersey and didn't buy it there.

I tired looking for number kits which go for 30$ on ebay but they only have a few select players.

If anyone knows of any place on the Island that does it please let me know!

I probably should have specified that it's not an Isles jersey...unless they do have an agreement with a place and can do all teams...thanks though I forgot to specify

I used to work at the Mets Clubhouse Shop in Roosevelt Field Mall and we did all NHL and MLB. Don't know if they do it anymore since they've moved across the hall into the smaller location. Back then it was $65 and took 3-4 weeks. No clue on the price or if they even do it anymore.

Does anyone know the dangers of taking a name plate and numbers off a jersey? i'd like to get a Grabner 3rd jersey but dont want to pay upwards of a 100$... I just found a Comrie 3rd (yukky) for 60$.. and was wondering if I could just get that taken off and put Grabner instead.. or would that not be very smart.

Well this all depends on how you feel with credit card security and how popular the player you are looking for is but jerseysroom.com has nhl jerseys for 38 bucks. I guess the deal is you by direct from China without the middle-man(NHL with a +200% mark up). I have dealt with them in the past and have had NO problems what so ever and they were not knockoffs(well they technically are but they are basically real you can't feel the difference) . Only catch is you have to buy 6 jerseys(get a couple buddies) if you want free shipping. You can mix and match.

Well the ones I have gotten have been fine. Some might be off I guess but hey they are 38 bucks. Id rather spend that than 200+.

they changed my bergy into a wis (yea yea...) and my fedotenko (dont judge) into a moulson

they're legit and cheap too... only about $40 for all the lettering for both jerseys i believe

I would maybe shy away from Pt Jeff sports....Years ago (this was probably 1998) I took them a black kings jersey to have heat pressed letters put on for my roller hockey team. The guy neglected to put cardboard on the inside of the jersey, so my heat pressed letter on the back had an imprint of the Kings logo on it! Granted this was over ten years ago, but I took that as a bad sign and never went back there again!

I can show you several authentic baseball jerseys i still own from port jeff sporting goods from the 90s where their lettering and numbers they use looks nothing like the pros. I would never go back there. I was upset when I went to plaza sports too in '94 to get iron on vinyl numbers and letters on my ranger jersey and it came back without the ''shadow style'' i was so embarrassed when i wore it to school.
Since then I've used Cosbys and sent 2 jerseys to liebe.com who does the major league lettering and have gotten the proper numbers.
Cosbys was $100 for the name/numbers for a rangers jersey but it looks excellent. are they even still open in manhattan?
I used to work for the one in Westbury in '99. They had a big stash of old hockey sticks and '94 rangers pucks in their basement.
I used to go down there and shoot some around and even bought a Kevin Lowe stick from their old stock.
