I'm dreading how much superglue he's going to use on then

What does he do with his bats? Wash clothes like how they did in pre-washing machine era?
All look beyond repair and more like fire wood.

Get the belt sander on them and they will be fine.

That could be why he got rid of these!  ;)

He hasn't actually sent them in himself though. They're the ones from Gumtree yeh

That Paragon looks so good though and quite an easy repair I'd say. If you were desperate you could still use it as is

These look very much like the ones on Gumtree found on a skip in Aus!

Which the seller did not reply to My message!

Understandable really, why post them to the UK when you can sell them locally for less hassle?
