30% off the RRP, price reduction already made.

I was there and was thouroughly confused what to by as the additional 10% off RRP make everything so much more affordable.

They have some very sweet Salix bats, 3 very good Puma Bionics (huge edges and good pick-ups), 1 GM JT Players and 1GM GS Epic (18 grains with 1/3rd heartwood).

Some very good Kookaburra bats as well.

Where do you stay mate? Which club do you play for?

Barringtons generally tend to start off late with cricket stuff as they are heavily into hockey (think the biggest in the NW).

This year onwards they are increasing their focus on cricket and have some very very good bats and other equipment in stock.

They are planning to take-up a new premises just for cricket and also working on the lines of bat testing before buying

They did not have any Solutions. There were a couple of good MK 1 Distinctions and Amplus. Had a very nice Amplus in 2lb9oz, pinged well. They had a MAster, but it was ok, would not pay 300 for it.

1-2 very nice Legends in 2lb9oz / 2lb10oz, A very nice GM Players JT in 2lb10z and if someone likes a Epic, they had a nice one in 2lb11oz with 17-19 grains- evenly spaced but with 1/4th heartwood.

THe Salix bats they have a amazing and some very nice Kookaburra 1000, Players, 950 etc.

The Amplus and Distinction MK1 were good, but for 315 I would rather put in a extra 35 and get the GM Players for the simple reason they are something different and (possibly) unique and also because M&H don't hold their value.

Btw, @400 quid the Legend experience is not a bat offer.

Roco, they are closed tomorrow.

One of my friend from London ordered online and I went and picked out a bat for him.

If you want any help let me know.
