Slazenger V6 and V12 Bats now available for pre-order...
« on: September 27, 2012, 09:31:41 AM »
Having placed our Slazenger stock order already, I thought I'd put these up:

http://www.itsjustcricket.co.uk/cricket-bats-c17/senior-cricket-bats-c18/slazenger-v12-limited-edition-cricket-bat-p482

We won't have these bats in until November, but for those of you wishing to be amongst the first people to own one, they are both available for pre-order now, at the weights listed.  They will all be hand picked too...

Even though I love the stickers, I feel that the price on these is very unrealistic.

Quite interesting that it doesnt state that the V6 is made in the uk... I thought they were both being made by DF?

I think it's just the V12, but don't want to publicize either way on our website as I don't know for sure, and the catalogue is giving nothing away either!

humm, i don't want to be too negative but £350 for a Duncan Fernley bat with slazenger stickers doesn't strike me as a great deal..

No, quite, especially when the retro DFs were only around the £200 mark!

I think they'll be popular with the general public though - the limited edition aspect of them adds value.

My thoughts exactly! I've used a DF retro the Hosk owns and it is a stunning bat, I think it cost Pete about £200 and it was the top of the range. How can this DF made Slaz be £359?

 think someone at Slazenger has lost their marbles...!

If it has Slazenger stickers - it's a Slazenger and £359.99 for a top grade Slazenger isn't that pricey.

Are we allowed to talk about who makes Slazenger bats?

I must add here that £359.99 price is the price that I've decided to sell them for, having seen them in the flesh and been given their RRP, which is £425 by the way...

I couldn't agree with Matt more about the limited edition aspect adding value, and the certificate and signature card thrown in is a nice touch too.  I am sure they will sell at this price and have no plans to discount any more.

I think it's only forum sponsors who we aren't allowed to talk about Tom!  ;)
