You need to buy all 65 at once.
Forum syndicate anyone?  ;)

May be you can do a great discount to first 65 emailers/coupon availers.
Will increase you brand publicity ..if you have enough 2015 stickers left

If selling at a loss is the only way to attract interest from the forum then B&S leaving the forum is no surprise.

Not sure why you are making a -ve comment here. B&S is anyways going to get rid of the 65 bats, so the suggestion was to have a discount thing going which will also help B&S as more people will get to use their bats and they can have return customers if the product is good.
Everyone loves a good deal ;)

Not suggesting loss here. Just the price they are ready to sell the bats for..just to individuals in the forum instead of one entity.

Agreed - discounted on a first come first serve basis would generate more interest than a 65 bat job lot

But would also create a whole load more work when they just want rid.

Packing and boxing, stickering up. PayPal fees and making sure payments are right. Getting the correct addresses and going to the post office multiple times.

All they want to do is get rid of old stock in one go.

Agreed - it's time-consuming to deal in 65 different transactions.

However the likehood of anyone on here stumping up at a guess - £4k for them is low I would guess.

Wouldn;t it be fun if Gary offered them in batches of 5 to people on here - boxes of mixed weights, I bet loads of people would go for that!

Surely @nickpain77 will take them if he's decided on the stickers by now? ;)

I thought the same.  I've made a post on @nickpain77 Imperial Cricket stickers thread.

My first option is to the Trade if there are no takers I will do a special and sell as blank or stickered up or I may just send them back to S A as there season is in full swing
