Title: Online Stockist?
Post by: swamidude on August 23, 2011, 09:37:13 AM
Hey guys,

Was just wondering if anyone knew where he is? I've emailed him on multiple email addresses but have not had a reply in a couple of days, considering how he usually replies overnight.

Has anyone bought anything off him recently?

Thanks,

Shiv

He needs to update the website, I've seen a former poster on this forum has bought several of SG's latest range from him recently but the website's still showing stuff from a few years back.

Have to say that he did a reasonable job for me. Ordered an SG VS319 Ultimate with the oiling, knocking in, and face sheet, which was £100 + shipping, and what's turned up is a very nice piece of wood. It took a couple of weeks, I assume because it needed knocking in and has definitely been oiled. I'll give it a bounce with the mallet and some pics when I get home this evening, but I can't fault the service.

As a side note, I hadn't realised that the SG bats are pressed with a completely flat face!

They do in the flesh too. Given other's experiences, I thought I'd take a punt as I've only ever had a Matrrixx sub-continental design and made bat before, which I really didn't get on with, so I'm looking forward to seeing how it performs, and most importantly, picks up.
