Title: 2016 / 2017 Sales Thread
Post by: FattusCattus on December 28, 2016, 12:24:42 AM
Isn't this the time of year when a few of the retailers do 'New Years' sales?

How about the usual type of thread where people post links to sales they have come across, or better still, post what they are looking for in the sales and people can post links if they have seen them?

Me - I'm looking for decent cricket socks in the sale, and I might consider a new pair of NB / Asics spikes if there were any super-cheap.

Some blessed soul posted it in the black friday sale & got Legend Duffle for 48 (plus shipping to Singapore i.e. 70) from Allrounder, cheapest considering they just landed at most retailers.

Not on offer but I've got bulk orders for team mates from @Vitas Cricket before and the price was very reasonable

Online stockists have 12 packs of white chevrons for £9 or did last time I checked, no idea what delivery would be just for some grips but can't imagine it being too much and would make it worth it if you were ordering in big bulk or with some other things

I could be in the market for some new batting pads bought some Kookabura verves in the sales last year and can't get on with them they feel awkward maybe they need time to get used but considering buying these.. http://www.prodirectcricket.com/products/Newbery-Test-NEW-RH-Batting-Pads-White-Navy-Pro-Direct-Cricket-74063.aspx? (http://www.prodirectcricket.com/products/Newbery-Test-NEW-RH-Batting-Pads-White-Navy-Pro-Direct-Cricket-74063.aspx?) any thoughts from anyone looking for comfy light pads that are easy to run in. Other than that going to contact stretton fox on a set of thigh pads. Finding the Aero p2s never stay put in constantly having to move them back into position after every shot in the nets! Any other suggestions on pads or thigh pad sets welcome 😊

Have to say, they look like a bargain.

Thigh pad: I have Kook Pro Thigh and Inner, link them together.

A few other have mentioned the new TON thigh pad & Inner combo
