Guess what I got for £99.99
« on: October 25, 2011, 04:10:21 PM »
So I go to Owzat to get some keeping gloves, and guess what I come across...


A Laver Private Bin (Harrow) reduced from £179.99 to £99.99! They are the only retailer in the uk (I think) to stock laver.


For that price it would be atrocious not to buy it, and since I use a harrow I now own a Laver & Wood.


8 Pretty Straight Grains, low middle, no concaving, picks up beautifully!


Here are some pics:

If only I was just that bit shorter and could get away with a harrow...

By the way, did you get any keeping gloves?
And did they have any of the new 2012 ranges in yet?

They had 2 Harrows, 3 full size and a Size 6, and I got some Aero keeping gloves (they are excellent)


Owzat is fantastic! Best cricket shop around in my opinion (I've been to Uzi Sports), the bat selection is truly amazing! They have just about every model from every manufacture, and just about every pad/glove from every manufacture.


They have the 2012 GM range in stock, the Epic is the pick of the bunch for me, the 1885 picks up like a dog.

Hmmm the Aero keeping gloves look ugly but I have never seen them in the flesh.
Would love to pay a visit to Owzat but it is just too far when Uzi with a cup of tea and friendly service is but a stone's throw away.

I got the green ones - I'm not a keeper, I just feel a need to own a pair, and these were pretty cheap.

Same, got some puma calibre keeping gloves purely because they were bright!

Does it have a mix of the two types of stickers?

They won't catch us this time! Not this time! They haven't spotted us! No, they're all snoring in their bunks! Or, you know what? They're drinking at the bar, celebrating our sinking! Not yet, my friends. Not yet!

I don't think so, the bat has been in there for a long time at £179.99, I see it every time, and I think it's just some older stickers - the red sticker on the bottom at the back does say Private Bin.

Yeah, it was the red one at the bottom and the red edge stickers that made me wonder.

I'm not complaining - it's a lovely bat, no matter what stickers it has.
