Yeah, looks very suspicious if they are claiming all those bats are UK made.

not just me then. Tape looks asian, profiles asian and if I didn't know better I'd say they are a customer of Steve at MSR...

Hello Mr Vanquish!

Hardly, I thought I was doing people a favour by sharing the fact they had a sale. Silly me.

I've also looked on their website and can't see anywhere that states the bats are made here in the UK but they do state that their bats are from UK grown willow. Which is more or less what the likes of stever at MSR does isnt it if i'm not mistaken?

Anyways, I will upoload a pic of the bat I have from them and you can make your own minds up

Anyone have any more info on these guys? Looking at getting a blade from them. Looks like they've started doing pads too on their website

Sounds as if they are SP cricket. I started a thread on here somewhere a while back, mate ended up getting one and it's a rocket. I would suggest sticking with the forum sponsors. Too much risk involved and buying a bat shouldn't make you paranoid and concerned!

I've now got two of their bats and they are absolute guns! great customer service too, the second bat they sent was a little heavy so they simply replaced it.

Ive been trying to upload pics of them both but it doesnt seem to work on my mac.  Any ideas on how I do this?

Thanks lads

Sorry for the very late reply guys, I still cant get the photo uploader to work on my netbook.

Since my last post I have purchased two more bats from Vanquish and 4 of my friends have also purchased from them. The sticks they sent us are quality I really want to upload some pics for you guys.

I also managed to get hold one the lads at their office for a chat. Apparently their bats are all produced here in the UK and they guarantee that they don't import any willow what so ever, which is a positive i guess?

anyways, ive got them on facebook and they currently have a sale on so i thought i would jump on here and let you know!

In the meantime.... if anyone can help me pop some photos up that would be great!


Seems odd that all your posts are vanquish related,  how long have you been working for them??

When you have access to behind the scene details, you can match it to Facebook/twitter/company website that use the same details.
Google then helps to find who they associate with, live etc.


Usefull when someone comes on a forum claiming to be a too happy customer with a poor previous poor company, and you find out its a current employee instead(happens a lot)

Cheers mate. I'm not clued up when it comes to stuff like that.

It's just strange the guy made 9 comments about how good vanquish are then 1 shoddy statement badmouthing another brand then disappeared.  We need questions...also if he does have a contact number for vanquish then please share with the forum, it sounds like a few people would like to have a chat with them
