Title: TNT shipment, bats stolen, please be on the lookout
Post by: GDP1964 on January 20, 2016, 01:46:44 PM: Hi guys,

TNT have 'lost' a shipment from SA with a number of our SH T20 bats with new purple, white & green Scorch stickers and red & black Fireball stickers.

The package was one of two boxes due to be delivered to me this week. I have received the other box, TNT say the missing box has disappeared between Northampton and Thetford. They have not confirmed as they say they are still investigating, but I suspect a driver or warehouse worker has put this box in the back of their car as the parcel was marked 'cricket bats'

Please be on the lookout if you see such bats for sale either in your local area or online, any info would be appreciated.
