Gray-Nicolls Test Match Bat Making
« on: May 04, 2011, 01:48:42 PM »

I can now confirm that the Gray-Nicolls bat making stand will be attending the following test matches in 2011.

England vs Sri Lanka:   Swalec Stadium
England vs Sri Lanka:   Lords
England vs Sri Lanka:   Rose Bowl
England vs India:         Lords

We will be demonstrating and taking orders for custom made bats. I am unable to state the prices of these offers as this is specific to each ground.

Cheers

Alex

Congrats Alex - you've just hit the 50 post mark so in theory you could start selling stuff in the For Sale section  ;)

I'm sure that if anyone using the service mentions the forum, then it would be a heads up to GN that the customer is likely to be extra fussy and won't accept anything short of the specified specification (try saying that quick!)

...and no, I'm not after a bat at the moment

Regional Price Discrimination. They would all do it given the chance, just its an obvious chance to do it when they go to percieved poorer parts of the country. They dont have to advertise the price to say people going to Lords so it will be more expensive there for the same service, they just dont know it is!

It may depend on what the offer is - sometimes with Lords they throw in a tour as well hence why is costs more.

I somehow doubt it will be the £150 it was last year...

Either way, I should be at both Lords games at some stage :)

That's a risk taking the new car over the bridge isn't it? Hope it hasn't got posh wheel-trims!

All days at all the test matches stated.

We don't set the prices, it's down to the individual grounds to decide.

Sorry I can't be of more help.
