So what's different about the shapes?

Post by: Jason_Yuan on November 22, 2013, 09:24:51 PM
good question haha i chose these two bats because i am a front foot player so got a lower blade bat, i am sure Jake knows about the shape much better than i do haha

From the pictures I can't decide if the Powerbow has a slightly lower bulge or not.
My dodgy eyes might just be playing tricks on me though.

Powerbow has a lower middle and offset edge.  Oblivion has a slightly higher middle, but still mid-low, and no offset edge.  Our (recently uploaded) video reviews of these bats explain everything a bit more clearly, to be honest!

They are both very nice bats - especially the Oblivion!  :)

What difference would VAT registration make? Better price?
Title: Re: GN Powerbow Generation X n Oblivion E41 LE just arrived today!!
Post by: GarrettJ on November 29, 2013, 04:30:43 PM
you take 20% off the price as its being shipped abroad so people overseas can buy a bat from UK with a 20% discount ............. although shipping costs can eat into
Title: Re: GN Powerbow Generation X n Oblivion E41 LE just arrived today!!
Post by: ItsJustCricket on November 29, 2013, 05:30:27 PM
It's actually 16.67% as our listed prices are VAT inclusive...

Not the first person to get that wrong though!

So thats only good for overseas buyers then...doesnt make any difference to local buyers.

Look fantastic, was the E41 not a good bit higher middle wise in last years range?

Oblivion looks very nice indeed but I hate to be always negative but I would not be happy with the look of the powerbow for the price it listed and for le willow.

Looks can be deceiving though and I rate vitas as one if not the best shop on the forum and jake seems to know a thing or two about gn so both should be guns

Comparing the two does mean the powerbow doesnt worth listed as the le willow but Jake definitely done an amazing job picking this willow for me! The bat do ping well and hopefully using it soon in January

Divide the total of your order by 1.2, then add postage (~£35-40 for a bat) and you have your answer...

Profiles do look similar. Maybe the profile is a tad lower on the Powerbow. The biggest difference I can see is that the Powerbow has a more pronounced... ummm... bow!

So around same price for the bat then i guess, might as well order to hk as i do live there most of the time

Don't forget any possible import charges on landing at customs in a country outside the EU. :)
