And by the top top end ones are made by Robet Pack in UK its oinly low range being made there

CD, made by Sondhi in India and supplied into the Australian and NZ market and the bat in the photo is legit Robert Pack only finishes Puma bats in the UK correct if I am wrong and Sondhi supplies them to him

Post by: Cover_Drive on May 29, 2011, 10:22:21 AM: Johng, you're right they are made by FC Sondhi but I'm quite sure the top ones are made by Rob Pack. The top ones has a sticker saying Made in England too! While mid range like 3000 doesn't and they say Made In India.

Also i would say Puma get 100,000 bats made in India and Rob Pack can't finish all em ? He must need to be a Superman to do that ;-)

Not being funny but PW and you have told us he makes all the 5/6000s, no mention of 'only UK market' until now, so you can understand the confusion.

Post by: Nitin on May 29, 2011, 08:22:53 PM: The manufacturer tells me he makes them all!.
It doesn't matter much, just had a few throw downs, and balls are flying out of the middle.

Post by: Cover_Drive on May 29, 2011, 08:33:53 PM: What is surprising how you managed to get a Puma in India apparently these manufacturers are suppose very strict on that.

Do you mind if I ask how much you paid, just want to confirm the price with UK market

Thanks
