I have a crack like the one on colesey bat on my old bat. It has gone right through the splice and I ruined!

[norbs]

No its currently in the boot of my car

Thanks Tom, Buzz etc

Whilst it isn't great to see stuff like this it is all input

Joe was refunded and given an apology. He very kindly tried it, he did and wasn't comfortable with it. I think there has been a line drawn underneath it now

We've taken certain steps to ensure all is ok from now on with a whole raft of stuff and some the things mentioned here included

The spine isnt throwing the car off balance is it

Some of this is done by design

[Number4]

The car or the bat?

[Ayrtek Cricket]

Why hang on to it?? I don't get that... he did actually get offered a refund didnt he??

I have it to return to SAF as Joe doesnt have any bat boxes or use of a courier service

[Lekka Global Alliance]

Joe is for sure not without his soapbox

Guys I've said this before. Yes I was disappointed with my bat, but this is one is over 100 that Andy has made.

I'm sure that if you were to buy an SAF bat right now you will have no problems. Andy kindly refunded me the money and as it cleared yesterday I'm off to my local shop to pick up my bat later on today (pics will be added).

Give Andy a break and stop slagging him off. It can't be easy to make custom cricket bats to the highest quality as well as having a full-time job.

Well said.

Andy is a skilled bat maker with a wealth of experience!
To be fair, the likes of Andy, Matt (H4L), Gary (Redback), James (Laver) and other bat makers/ pod shavers should be given a little more respect as it's a real art form to get the balance, feel, finish and pickup right!

Cannot agree more. Yours was the first I've seen that the owner hasn't liked, and I know that there are a lot of people who don't get on with their bats, so Andy's doing a pretty good job if you ask me.

Hey I agree with all of you but I have never seen a bat that the spine was that far off centre (not even talking about the crack near the splice)... That particular bat looked like it was made by someone learning.. I have no doubt Andy makes great bats.. Whether it was refunded, replaced or whatever is beside the point.

Aren't you going for another custom made?

Number4, it feels a bit like you are trolling with this comment. Andy has responded, and so has the bat recipient. It might be best to leave it at that.

Got a beautiful Boom Boom Signature 130. Will post pics later.

Sorry.. Just thought this was a forum where everyone could have there opinion. Can't seeing any trolling in my post there just an opinion of what I saw. I will keep my opinions to myself and let the chosen few have theirs.
