Not naming brands or naming companies but why are people paying vastly difference prices for bats made by the machine or man.

The difference in cost is staggering

which best .... machine or man .......... i'd say a machine.

ALL bats are pressed by a machine .......... and if finished by a machine it would be more accurate to certain specifications??

They're almost all made by machine, just are marketed diff.

Price is down to how much profit the seller wants to make

Are the Lekkas cheaper or pricier? There never seem to be any set prices available.

I did try to buy one of these 99 quid specials but the postage was 40 quid as they were coming from Thailand.
Rest assured these werent TK bats for 99 quid
