Well you're a merchant/own trees, is that more correct? Saying a bat has the biggest profit margin is not an opinion, it's either true or it's not. Yes I agree it offers a big profit margin, however how do you quantify it's the biggest? Have you looked at every other manufacturers costs, do you know their sticker costs, shipping costs? You seem to make assumptions and post them as fact, that is why I picked you up on it.
Mike, seriously I haven't achieved anything in cricket or life yet. I try not to claim or act like I have, yes I know a bit but not much. Gary has achieved, he's gone out there, set up his own brand, won awards and made it succesfull. Whereas Talisman has been on the verge of launching for the past couple of years.
We offer a bat experience (i.e it's finished, ready to use and stickered), not a part made experience. If you want the latter then try somewhere else.
