« on: August 17, 2010, 09:35:27 PM »

Hi Guys,

Does anyone know of any top batmakers who sell factory seconds/rogues with minor faults, bt still good on performance? I'm thinking newbery,warsop etc etc

Not interested in Readers bats.

They are all heavy though.

Newbery apparently have a bucket full of them at the chalet, not sure if you need 'contacts' to go there though... i have a feeling you do.

I reckon your best bet is to ask the companies and see if they have any lying around and ask for a good price.

Salix for example only offer them to people who visit the workshop... but have some really cheap ones if you do apparently!

It's things like this that make me wish all the bat manufacturers weren't all based 100's of miles away :( :(

Whoah, he's had a very good year. 4000 bats for a boutique brand is phenomenal, even if he is making the odd one for different companies.
