The courier bit is a superb idea....It's one thing saying you'll do it, it's quite another offering to get it collected from you as well....

For someone like me who is very very hard on bats, it would be a godsend!

It's kind of a 'bat for life' scheme isn't it? Hahaha!

Dan is a good bloke indeed been buying bats off him from around 7 years and even when he was getting them pressed somewhere else although he still went and did it

His softs changed when he changed his vendor and now they are inline if not slightly better
Than most

He has worked hard to get the whole range where it is.

Chase's kit (at Lord's) looked top notch to me.  Also, the Four Leaf Clover on show was only a sample.  Apparently the real one will have the clear stickers without the white background, so it'll look even nicer - Newbery Cenkos-esque!

It's a brand we'd love to stock if they ever wanted to take our money - unfortunately, they don't want to at the moment...

I didn't know that, so the white stickers we saw are going to be replaced with clear ones? It sounds amazing, looking forward to seeing one in the flesh. I hope he decides to keep the white backed stickers for another model though...I think they look really classy.

It's geographical, that's all I'll say.  To give them credit, I like the fact that they're choosy and want to support their existing stockists in matters such as these. 

But it's no big deal - I've got someone else in mind to fill the slot I was planning to allocate for Chase.  Taking on a new brand has never been this exciting!   8) However, I am not prepared to reveal any names at this stage...

even if there is a big enough market in London....

Ooo... Interesting!  Just trying to think of brands I haven't seen in store.  Can think of 2 or 3 for sure!

It's more a "I don't want to tread on our preferred suppliers' toes" type thing, Iain, but don't really want to go into any detail on here. 

There will be some changes in the IJC stocks, yes.  We are going to be a lot leaner and meaner, with 4 or 5 brands facing the chop.  There will be an addition or two though.  Quite exciting, and in one case in particular, far from predictable...
