Have seen this:-

Any thoughts/comments on whether it is a good deal/bat etc would br great!
Thanks

Looks a good price

As ever though, all depends if you actually get it once purchased!

Why do you say that??!!
Does this company have a bad rep?

Pro Direct are a law unto themselves! They seem to charge such random prices, theres always a bargain to be found!

But can they be trusted to supply what you think you are buying?!

It's 50/50 to be honest

ProDirect are notorious for advertising stock, letting you buy it and then telling you they have run out of stock and giving you your money back

You won't ever loose money with them but quite a lot get told they have run out

However, if you happen to be one of the first to buy them and get one, they are always a bargain

for that money you could choose a right 'pinger' from any of the small makers on the forum.

Give Matt a call at H4L. Both of my bats from him cost less than that.

They don't have best rep for delivering

I'd go to your closest bat maker and see if you could get a deal

Always worth a punt mate, if you get it then gravy if not then you haven't lost any money just some time...you guys in the UK should know within 2-4 days if you are going to get it or not...

if u want a puma... just go see rob back but obv u wont get puma stickers

Never had a problem with prodirect, always delivered, and that was with 2 items on back order.

both good and bad experience with pro direct
but ordered a puma once myself at bargain price, turned up and its a beauty
so definately worth a punt
