Title: Buying Plain bats at Wholesale
Post by: tailender on December 20, 2014, 12:29:41 PM
So,

I'm looking to order 5-10 plain English willow bats for my Uni mates and a few lads at my club.  Im not going to sticker them up or anything im just going to sell them on for a small profit.

Where is the best place to buy bulk bats?  I don't fancy throwing my money down the drain on ebay....

Ive not heard good things about their "grading" so I will probably steer clear of them, but thanks anyway. 

Anyone else sell plain bats?

Depends on your budget I know kippax we're doing buying in bulk at a discount as were bb (blank bats). If your looking at bottom end then MSR as suggested is a sensible start.

I'm sure you could get a deal from any forum sponsor unstickered, the hunts through vitas look excellent or Ryan (details are in the batmakers shed)

Happy to sort out a number of plain bats from Hunts for you at a good price.

Price is dependant on the quality and quantity of bat required.

Since you are always raving about Hunts, Jake, I was wondering why they don't feature on your ad in All Out Cricket this month?  Not *cough* funky enough?

Very few people away from the forum buy Hunts stuff from us. Anyone local will probably go to Hunts directly, and anyone internet/mail order based will probably not go for Hunts, because as you say, they aren't too funky.

I didn't choose the logos that went on our ad. AOC did.
