Super broken GM Icon Original
« on: June 06, 2012, 08:15:39 PM »
Another broken bat, has the old edition stickers on it but was only bought at the beginning of last season (in  NZ so can't really be returned to the retailer), and only used in around 10-11 games( plus probably around 20-30 nets) due to the player who owns it's father taking ill back home in SA.

Obviously not repairable but do you guys think it's worth contacting GM, obviously it's a bit more hassle than if we lived in the UK. I know these things happen but it's not a lot of use to get from a bat after shelling out 300 notes!

Looks like a storm damaged cleft to me, just how it's split. I'd contact GM!

They could credit your local retailer so wouldn't have to mess around with shipping costs etc.

Yeah, I said storm damaged to my mate too.

Our nearest retailer is probably somewhere in the North East of England unfortunately.

I have emailed GM about this, hopefully I'll receive a quick reply, and let you guys know what they say.

My Icon fissured in virtually exactly the same manner after a few net sessions nearly two years ago.

GM kindly replaced it for me for gratis via owzat cricket.

Excellent customer service all round.

Nope, no reply at all from GM which is really disapointing
