Am I missing the price?

I take it it's an overall full length bat?

Is it full width?

Cheers.

At least I would have thought. Although does appear to have a rather large knot/blemish at the top.

Also very poor pics and info for a for sale thread.

I guess it's meant to build up suspense or something. Yes the bat's big but its a short blade, and weights 2 12.5 without a grip or stickers!

Wonder how much it's gonna cost...

Hi,

Please feel free to ask any questions you may have...

As ever, please make an offer if you like the bat.  Currently have 2 people who are interested, but as I have said to them, I cannot hold it for anyone really.

The blade is full width, overall, the bat is full length.

You're correct in spotting a blemish up near the splice, however this isn't the (intended) hitting area of the bat.

One other question I have been asked, this bat will come with Custom stickers, or Phantom if you would like.

Thanks

Does this not have a standard price then? Do we just make offers until we get to what you want for it?

I know the knot is not the intended hitting area but assume that this would have some kind of impact on your intended price for this. I assume most of your customers would like a clean blade if paying full price as I believe your bats and prices are normally high end of the market

If this was put up with stickers already applied you wouldn't even know it had a knot, I think by leaving it blank and giving the option of stickers to be added has its pros and cons.

A lot of G1 bats will have knots/imperfections towards the top where labels usually hide them :) unless you're a BlanksBats type of brand where you have minimal stickers to work with.

Unfortunately for us if you are a sponsor then no the price is not required, its also not in a for sale section rather in BC's own section.

I wonder what all the folks who constantly say its not ebay but a forum think of this about this type of sale  ;)

Ach! I just lose interest when it's 'make me an offer' sale.

I'm just a big child, and don't have the patience to fanny about.

Just through him a random number and have it delivered to me so Betty doesn't find out!  Plus you know I won't use it as I can't lift anything heavier than 2lbs! :D :D ;)

HI Chaps,

I did the audacious move by gong for this beast!  After a long wait I finaly got my hands on this!  It looks a real beats but i feel like im using a harrow bat!!!!

It does look ideal for the 20-20 format but am not sure if i can really go out and open up with this bat???!

Go for it, but just play normal cricket shots. Any pics and a full review?
