More going out
« on: June 24, 2013, 03:26:16 PM »

Well here's a beauty that a South African lads come to have made. It's 2-10 but picks up like 2-8. Will be a lot more pics posted in the next few days as we sticker up more orders that I have been working on over the last couple of weeks.

The edges of my bat take a beating, the middle is near enough new.

Just had a nice meeting with my softs supplier at lunch first time we have met face to face and what a lovely guy, he's doing a tour round uk holidaying and visiting customers. Quite an eye opener, I knew I was naive as to how the big companies managed to ship real grade ones abroad and back and sell for a profit. Lets just say my suspicions were there but I never knew how much i underestimated it. Truely shocking that's all I am going to say.

It can but you wouldn't believe that it can be allowed at the extent of what they are doing then charging people £400 plus a product that ain't anywhere near what the customer would think it was

Knowing what you know about these practices can only make your brand stronger.

With that knowledge, you can be confident knowing that your transparency and honesty will, over time, underpin your brand.

You'll fast become known as the 'honest, ethical, trustworthy, decent' bat maker. Those are powerful words to be associated with. I've recommended you to many of my team mates based on honesty and service alone.

There was a thread asking for 'top 3 bats', the majority had the word 'Aldred', mine had the Vintage. People are recognizing that the major brands DON'T give them value for money and are looking toward smaller brands such as yourself, H4L et all.

Now it's time for a cold beer.

Paul I have to agree with the previous couple of comments, I truly doubt I will ever buy from a 'big brand' ever again.

Your bats look amazing, my experience of your customer service is brilliant, I can't wait until I try one of your bats.

Keep up the good work and keep sticking to your values.


Just spotted the signature on tha bat on the right, nice touch - looks good

Sorry for being a blonde here but are we talking about big companies selling lower grade English willow as Grade 1's or are we implying they are selling Kashmir willow as English willow?
or did I get it completely wrong?
