Title: Bat of the week 2: ebay bargain
Post by: jonpinson on August 16, 2011, 05:53:30 PM: Bought from the much maligned MSR chap, this, for £60. Weighs 2'7 gripped, 42mm edges. See pic. Goes like a train.

Post by: Canners on August 16, 2011, 08:53:23 PM: Ahhh I saw these on eBay, worth the gamble?
Title: Re: Bat of the week 2: ebay bargain
Post by: jonpinson on August 16, 2011, 08:55:56 PM: So far, let me use it in a match next week before I get all positive. Probably not going to last too long as it is clearly very dry, but who cares for the price :)

Post by: jonpinson on August 19, 2011, 04:27:53 PM: It's ugly, no doubt. And it will probably break after a few innings, but all signs point to it being spectacular as long as it lasts.
