Title: Bat recommendations for £150
Post by: imperivm on July 25, 2013, 09:58:59 AM: My friend broke his bat getting 80 odd in a midweek game last night and is in the market for a new stick.

Any forum sponsors have anything special at £150?

If your friend can stretch his budget to 170 pounds. I can make him a beauty of a bat as per his specifications. This will include a padded bat cover and I will full oil and knock in the bat in the same price.

More details on the following link:

Worth ringing to see if they have any devil models about, can't remember the price of them though.

As for online stockist, I may be wrong but I'm pretty sure, I've heard bad things about them and their customer service. Worth checking their FB twitter before using them, think there are a few unhappy customers who post on the walls/comments.

Post by: stevat on July 25, 2013, 11:39:53 AM: I've had stuff from OnlineStockist before; the quality of product was good as was the price for Sareen Sports stuff, but I did have to wait a couple of weeks for delivery. Service wise, the chap I was corresponding with was helpful most of the time, though there was a period of 2 or 3 days in the midst of shipping where I got no response, the rest of the time he was upfront and decent.

That said, for £150, I'd be looking to B3 I think.

Hi mate, I am going to the Sussex vs. Australia game on Sunday, and while I'm there, I will be popping in to Newbery to hand-pick some more bats, mainly in the 5 Star grade. This is significant because we sell these bats for £149.99. If you fancy a hand-picked Newbery bat, and are prepared to wait until next week for delivery, please send me a PM!

Post by: Offthesquare on July 26, 2013, 03:49:14 PM: I have a couple of SS LE's at 2-10 (with really light pickups, re balanced by a bat maker on here and super short handles)... A really nice H4L Hattori at 2-8 and an amazing H4L special profile at 2-10 that are just taking up space in my house....I'd sell any of these for 150 or less...they are all brand new or had a net or 2 with a bowling machine (one of the SS and the special profile h4l need knocking in)

Not sure if I can say that having minimum posts !!! If not sorry, just delete it mod type people !!!
