THEY STOLE MY FFFF PICTURE THE FAKE SHITS
-
Why do they do it I mean has marketing really come to this!!!
-
U have nailed it down very well ... they are basically lying about everything now .. Cleft pictures are stolen. Are we sure their bats are made of english willow and not kashmir willow ?
-
Saw a similar thing last year a company had produce a bat video and another company copied and published still photos giving the impression that the bats That were in the photos were theres without saying as much.
-
Just asked for royalties. Has this what selling bats has really come to..
Seriously annoyed and don't really know why...
I like a good sale as much as the next but always thought about honesty and loyalty but maybe I was naive
-
Appears that they resell B3 bats as well.. And call their top of the line crown!
-
Just asked why the grains don't match in another picture also, apparently they do despite the bat having 15-20 grains on face and only 8/9 through the toe.
-
You can quite easily get a lawyer and sue for misrepresention .
Or order the bat in the pic, knowing its not real, then sue !
-
Send them an invoice for the use of the photo. Cheeky ba**ards.

Complete joke, it's never ending with CX. The fake you tube accounts defending CX and attacking anyone who criticises CX shows they will continue to stoop lower.
On the DwanRay website what is worrying is they have bats on from other brands (Adidas, Kook, and I am sure I saw SS). Most of which I am sure are made in India.
Didn't someone get asked to supply real SS stickers so that they could copy them?
-
How many poor souls are being duped by these false images?
It undermines the hard work put in by genuine and hardworking batmakers out there, when fraudsters like this, operate.
B3 must be fuming

They made in Pakistan and then idiots put fake stickers on of SS, Adidas and other brands. I seen in a factory myself when I visited Pakistan they had stickers of other brands and I asked how comes you got these and was told some people in Pakistan want stickers of GN, SS and other out of Pakistan brands. Now some people are taking advantage of it and cheating and frauding people.
-
Post about this fake thing on their FB and other social media stuff. tweet about it..specially B3 and other brand owners should tweet and socialize it.
-
They are lovely clefts!
This isn't the first time this has happened - we have had companies (used in the loosest possible term) using photo's of bats in production reporting a busy day in their factory!!
This is completely wrong and I can understand why Dave is mad, but unfortunately there is very little that can be done. In my view, companies that use tactics like this wont be around for very long as they will be found out sooner rather than later.
Have a great weekend and if you need a bat or would like to come and have at how we make bats - our door is always open to show you around.
Streaky

Haha good one mate!
I have noticed ever since Hanif video, they haven't been very active with promoting their bats as "grainy" bats. I feel sorry for people who paid $400 on these grade 3-4 or Kashmir willow bats.

Nice video released by them recently

Someone went to great lengths, in another post , analysing this blokes body language ie moving side to side , looking all uncomfortable etc . His mannerisms are the literal personification of being 'shifty' .
I know where I'd like to stick their 'bonifides' ! :o ;) :D

I would not buy a used car from that man.

So i asked a US based ebay seller if these bats got the Grain Sheet or Fake grains on them? I also referenced the CX company video to him. And here is what he replied
"there is no such thing in real as a grain sheet.
the thing thing which showed in video is in correct.
when you start knocking the bat the grain sheet supposed to be come out right?
i used the Cx bat my self there is no such thing. he is just a competitor
norhing else. these are natural grains. sometimes the grains disappears in wood or take turns. thats why you would never know unless you start knocking. i have personally seen different bats in grey nicolls, CA, IHSAN, malik, ton, new berry, spartan, most of the grains are like that in some willows."
So we need to knock a bat to know if this is real or fake and Grains disappears when you knock a bat.. complete crap.
He was so desperate to sell these that he replied again.
"hi, if you are interested in any of the cx cricket bat. i will give you a fair deal with the garuntee of a genuine english willow having awesome pickup, ping and bat response. if you found out the bat is fake you can return the bat.
there is one more thing people are mixing cosmetic details. the cosmetic is done by every single company to sell their products. but there is an option if you need the bat in natural look or cosmetic it is up to the player"
This is the same BS we saw in the CX company video. Here is the link of the item

@jd163 $320 dollars for subcontinental bat. I rather have a custom made bat than one of these. They are more expensive than CA and MB. Someone I know paid $400 to get it shipped to South Africa. I feel bad for him.

I paid $320 for CA15K Players edition which worth every cent. But definitely not for this CX crap.

I think it is insulting to compare the likes of CA, MB Malik, or any other reputable company to trash like CX.
I feel for the likes of CA and others when people are selling crap with their stickers on and I feel more sorry for the people spending their honest board earned cash on $###!
