Had a good day selecting bats at GN HQ (Robertsbridge), timing was great as they just had a fresh delivery of bats so our stock order has gone twice bigger than what we originally ordered. Started looking at big bats, Pro performance and Halestorms, selected bats which I thought had better pings than looks. Picked up 2  legends as well as other Retro range bats(Sabre, Select, Prestige ...)
There were too many to bring back so they will be delivered either end of the week or early next week
I did ange to take photograph of one of the Preadator LE and Pro Performance (huge bat  only 2.10 if i remember correctly)

Enjoy  the photos

I think the answer before was no but I can't find the thread...

Please tell me the 2.9 Pro Performance is one of the bats sold... I would like to visit the shop soon and have good intentions not to do something crazy :)

I believe that one is still available ;)

This is probably a daft questions but are the bats more expensive in-store? The online price looks a touch cheaper than the sticker price???

I love a blank bat too so it seems Uzi is the place to go to get in to trouble with one's significant other :)
Bats in store are £5 to £10 more than online
We have  huge stock and cover most of the weight, apart from NB and GM all bats are hand selected

@Uzi Sports it may just be the camera angle but those 2 Pro Performances look completely different profiles?

If that Legend is a £600 piece of willow...well I guess beauty is in the eye of the beholder.

The Salix is beautiful.

Sorry i have got no control on Gray Nicolls prices, i selected the bat on the following,
how well it plays and how light it is

Not a reflection on Asad as he says he's not in control of how GN choose to price their bats and he picks the best of what he finds BUT there has got to come a point soon where cricketers get value for money again. Especially in this price bracket. GN are doing themselves a disservice by making the legend what it has now become. It's just a standard bat to my eyes now, with as much margin for error as buying any other off the shelf.  I've had LE's from them over the years that were better than many of the Legends you see some retailers stocking. A true legend bat as far as I'm concerned,for that money, should be the dogs danglies, whatever shape you want, visit to Robertsbridge, cup of tea with them as they make your bat to your spec from a selection of truly exceptional clefts. No way am I parting with 600 notes for anything less. In fact I'd rather pay more and have that and just dispense with this middle ground that doesn't benefit anyone. @Uzi Sports remember that Dynadrive a few years ago I almost bought but chose to go for an E41, both made from legend clefts?? Now those were proper bats!!! The dynadrive was massive! And only 2.8. Still regret not buying that, love to know who snapped it up in the end and how it performed. That's my biggest bat regret ever.

The 2.5 Legend bat has been sold and it is on its way to a forum member.
The other bats selling well for us are Pro Performance and Halestorms, Here are the last 2 bats we had in stock which will be leaving our store tomorrow, One is 2.9 and other is 2.11.
Getting these in less than 2.11 is a difficult task  ;)
Enjoy the photos
