Didn't really know what section to put this in, but I thought as it related to purchasing keeping gloves I'd put it here.

Has anyone ever used or had dealings with a company called Orinav Sports, Singapore. I like the look of some SG Supakeep gloves as worn by Patel in the recent one dayers. To cut a long story short I bought a pair online, paid by PayPal and have heard squat since.

Even bombarded them with e mails, nothing.

Please don't state the obvious, that it will teach me, I am �52 down just wondered if anyone had used the company.

Did you send the money as a gift?

If you did then there is nothing you can do, if you sent it as a proper transaction then you can file a complaint and Paypal almost exclusively find in favour of the buyer, in which case they will refund your money after an investigation.

Might be worth E-Mailing laver and ask what they know about them cause they appear to be selling their bats?

How long ago was it that you placed the order?

97notout · « **Reply #5 on:** December 13, 2011, 06:38:12 PM »

Boys, thanks for your responses, I paid PayPal but not as a gift so I will get in touch with them. Okay it was only 3 days ago but I got a bit concerned when I didn't get a confirmation e mail from them.

I've used on line stockists and crickmart in the past, online are a bit slow but delivered the goods and crickmart came back straight away with an account number and delivery number.

I'll try Laver and see what they say.

Teach me though won't it. KAS strikes again and bites me on the bum. lol

This might sound stupid but you have checked your spam folder haven't you?

Found these, I am torn! Part of me likes them, part of me thinks they look like a kid attacked them with a plaster set.

(sorry to wander from thread)

Ta, checked spam, nothing, all online stockists e mails get stuck in the spam filter.
Know what you mean about the gloves in the picture. I haven't gone for them. They look ok until you see the palms. lol
I've e mailed Laver and Wood and will see what they say about them.

hi, i currently live in Singapore, and have not heard of these people, to my knowledge there are really only 2 people who sell cricket gear here. That's not to say that they don't exist. The contact number on the bottom is a mobile number, so might be worth giving them a ring. i'd be interested if they do exist, will save me a whole load of shipping fees. Fraud here is a very well policed thing, the country is very much a police state unlike malaysia, indonesia or any other country in the region, so fingers crossed you should be ok. Bear in mind that it's not cricket season here at the moment so he may have gone off on holiday and bear in mind that we're 8 hours difference if you do call. I'll try to have a dig around to see what else i can find out

Maybe there was the weekend in between and that slowed the response down further? I hope you get this sorted out to your liking.

Thanks to you both,

Laver and Wood vouch for the authenticity of the company and state they are their main distributor in Singapore and South East Asia.

I was aware of the time difference but had not taken into account the fact it was off season. Looks like I might be eating a large slice of humble pie when they do get in touch.

You live and learn, I will keep you updated of developments and will post some pictures of the gloves when they eventually arrive
