Hi, first post. Can anyone tell me if Nick Patel is a sales agent for H4L cricket gear? I received his monthly gear list and he says he can get H4L bats at very low prices. I ask because it strikes me as odd that he can sell at prices which undercut the H4L website.
Thanks

I dont know who this person is but i would find it strange if a ''agent'' sold cheaper than the main company website, others may be better placed to answer but i also thought H4L or Matt does quite well on his own anyway
-
That's what is confusing me. It seems like Nick Patel is considered a genuine seller by people here, but the H4L thing doesn't make sense. Has anyone else received his newsletter/advert offering the same?
-
Yes i have the offer but seen a similar from some guy in London as well who sells on ebay.
I only so one h4l and it was a tempo for i think 190.
Maybe he buying bulk i know Nick is good at sourcing good softs and good ss bats

I've had it too, Nick is a cracking guy to deal with.

an agent or shop keeper will always sell cheaper than the manufacture otherwise what would be the point of buying anywhere other than the manufacturer.

Tom it's an issue we are investigating.

I think that is the same guy as I am talking about. I can't see the sense in it, the numbers just don't add up. If H4L wanted more sales they could drop their own prices without going to a middle man. No offense to Nick Patel but I doubt he has a huge audience. He seems to be a well intentioned kid selling out of his bedroom and hoping customs and excise don't find out.

Ive brought ten or so bats of him and all are of excellent quality and genuine

Isn't he connected to Cricket Supplies?

No one is questioning that, his SS stuff looks great. Just an odd thing to claim to be able to undercut the makers prices without the maker knowing about it.

I have bought 3 and countless softs..
Maybe somebody sold this bat to him at a decent cut price a customer of h4l and he is selling it on..
maybe it used i think it is he never says it brand new either...
I buy good softs from him he gets some interesting soft's in .

'I can also order H4L bats on request, which will be much cheaper then the web prices.'
I only just noticed this
