Is it actually real?
« on: January 03, 2012, 11:26:48 AM »
I was recently reading through this topic http://custombats.co.uk/cbforum/index.php?topic=14418.0 and came across a website with a grade 1 GN 100 Scoop. I then searched google and found no others like it. What I want to no is, is it fake?  ???

Here is the link http://www.vks.com/gray-nicolls-gn-100-players-cricket-bat.htm

I know that, but I find it odd that it's the only place that sells it.

Looks newly introduced. It's only available for pre-order and appears to be a 2012 model. Honestly, I dont' think it's worth it.... It's nearly £100 more than I paid for my GN100.

Haven't had a chance to use it yet, although off the mallet it surprised me.

the thing is they have prooved to be massively popular - so it isn't a surprise that a more expensive model is being introduced.

Didn't someone say that the G2s were now all sold out (more or less...)...

I bought my scoop there. The customer service was brilliant. Asksed for the photos of bats and sent me them straight away, was really good.

He said he was getting players scoops in for next year.
