right guys need help. i have recieved a tasty tax rebate today and the cheque is in for cashing. now the mrs has stuck her foot in and told me i am not allowed to buy a bat with it etc as we have to move into a new place etc etc, all that usual rubbish and after less than 20 mins on the forum i have decided to take her advice on board but... totally ignore it and get a bat! i have contacted Charlie at black cat and was all set to buy a scorcher but unsure whether he still has it now as it was some time ago and my car was dameged so had to put the bat on hold.
hoping the guys on here can either throw what they have at me that is pretty special while i wait for Charlie to get back to me. this will also give someone a great oppurtunity to a forum member because if i get something really special my absoulutely superb UK Lekka will be going up for sale to try and build the funds back up!
price range - up to £260
weight - 2.9 - 2.10
all profiles considered but Charlies blade will take some beating if he still has it!!
thanks guys get in touch

How about seeing if Mike has something a bit special kicking around?
Failing that, well, the world is your oyster. But if that was my budget, Black Cat would be very tempting. It's worth seeing if they still offer a discount on the premium member scheme.

I'm having similar talks with him and there seem to be a couple of things that would tick your boxes...
(in other words please buy them before I get into serious bother) :D
-
Well it's foray come first served mate. I need to wait for this bloody cheque to clear :( I want a bat now!!! The mrs will hit the roof, then me when it arrives haha. Oh well it's my bday next week I'll say IRS my present from
Me, to me hahaha
-

-
Tom!! This is getting silly. I'm
Trying to go on your recommendations and you put this in the mix!!!!
-
hahaha forgot i had it mate....something a little different for you to consider thats not run of the mill ;)
Plus u can collect it in only 24 days time :D
-
In the words of SAF, some clubs are inflating the transfer market for the rest of us. lol... Good luck mate. I hope you score tons of runs with whatever you buy.
-
I never thought of SAF tbh. Very tempted by the SCAT though. This isn't going to be An easy decision is it!! I shouldn't have done it. I don't like saying no to bats and can't afford three or four. I only want 1 :(
-
id be very tempted by the SCAT
-
By SAF I meant Sir Alex Ferguson but anyhow SAF would be a good choice!

Youre unlikely to find one for a similar price again..
-
ahhh so thats the real acronym of SAF not San Andreaus Fault lol
-
not the way the Aus dollar is going at the moment $625 now = £389.90!!!
-
I know I wouldn't mind but I have opened the floor to offers and now Im
Gonna have to turn some down
-
Ok have 3 great offers so far. Waiting for some pics and any more offers. Budget still at £260 max but all 3 I'm Happy to say have fallen within that. Exciting times ahead. Will more than likely add a poll once the choices are short listed to see what you all think.
-
you know what i think ;)
-
What's the 3?
-
1.xx
2.xxx
3.xxxxxxxxxxxx
-
I hope they're not kisses lol
-
1. Screaming cat premium
2. A special Talisman - mike to send pics.
3. H4L - Matt to send pics of any beauties he has lying around
No word from
Any others so that's the 3 I guess. All well priced and I'm sure all 3 will be great bats.
Just need to see pics etc and make a decision ???
-
Now that's a tough choice all 3 will be blinders
-
Don't I know it :( it will be great to have the choice but having to turn 2 away will kill me. I just hope I make the right choice and don't upset anyone.
Except Tom, nobody cares about you Tom, you've angered me with this Scat, you threw that spanner in the works knowing full well i'd want it >:( your an evil man. A diabolic despicable man!! Haha
-
In fairness i forgot i had it mate....also im expecting some comission from the other 2 as well if u dont want the SCAT ;)
-
haha i know mate. its all good. yeah you may need to have a word with Matt and Mike after the sale.. either that or invoice them your fee's
-
Take out a loan and buy all 3 :D
-
wouldnt need a loan mate, the cheque would easily cover it lol
just cant be spending it all
-
What specs are you going for? Middle position etc?
-
i wish it was me that bad that money to spend on a bat :(
i love low middles lol
-
i havent asked for a custom mate. as long as it isnt asian profile i am not that fussy.
that way i leave myself options and dont get tied down with the specifics. ive used all shapes and sizes. just anting to splash the cash and get smething special.
-
I am new to posting on the forum but have read threads for some time.
I now represent Lekka Uk.
What about a Lekka ? Either a standard blade or a T20 blade ? Well within your budget and as good as any bat I have used.
£150 + postage

-
already have a Lekka mate, got it from Sam, was cheaper than your price and was posted next day so no thanks
-
I thought Lekkas used to be £135 posted?
-
thats what i paid and mine is a beast. Sam was great
-
They were but hey If he gets that price fair play
-
Lekka UK bats were being supplied by Sam but as you are all aware Sam has decided to not continue. Sam was offering the bats at that price as an offer but that is no longer available. I am not commission based so I am not adding an extra £15 or £20 for myself. I am sure by now that anyone who has had a Lekka bat will stand by their quality and performance. If you already have a Lekka then I hope you like it as much as I like mine. One thing I will say is don't be spending ur budget of £200+ too soon
-
ok no probs. as i said i already have a Lekka and wont be interested in another.
-
Mine weren't on "offer" mate, that was the price i chose to sell them at to make sure everyone was happy.
-
ok, lets not have a Lekka Rep off on here guys. if anyone else has any other bats they think i might be interested in please get in touch. weight of 2.9 - 2.10 must be superb quality to compete with the offers i currently have to consider
-
Would you be interested in a Limited Edition TNT T20 style bat. Only 50 Limited Editions being made. Pics will follow. £250 including UK postage.
-
i very much doubte it mate the offers are on the table are pretty special lol
specially the one from mike!
