Title: Bat refurb from Newbery
Post by: kal_m on April 04, 2015, 02:21:23 AM

Hey chaps,

Recently picked up a Newbery bat that could use a clean up and a nice set of stickers (prefer Newbery stickers). Was wondering if anyone has a contact at Newbery for the refurb job?

I sent an email to the id from their website but got no response.

Cheers!

I've only ever used the sales@ email address from the site. They aren't the fastest to respond but i've always had a response.

We're spoiled on here because the sponsors whether they are a batmaker or a retailer respond to us within hours normally so that's the service we become used to.

I contacted Newbery via twitter. A friend's bat needed new handle and stickers etc. They told me to send the bat to their office address in UK and send TO Martyn Swift.
They charge 50 GBP .
After that I spoke to Martyn and he said the bat will be ready in 1 week. So I should get the bat next week.
He will email me the invoice.
The address is the one on their website .

Thanks for the info, I will wait for their response and hopefully they will respond soon.

Any idea how much they charge for servicing,like addressing a few surface cracks, new stickers and a toe guard
