There are two worst. These are, without doubt, the SG VS319 Ultimate which was a complete plank with almost no middle, as a number of people on here can testify to. The other was the Kook Blade Special Edition, which had a similar problem. Got my money back plus some by selling both on ebay.

The best of the ones I sold on were the H4L, GN Evo Carbo (which I still wish I hadn't got rid of), the Laver Reserve Ultra and the Bulldog SpiriT20. All awesome bats, that I just didn't need to keep. The ones I've kept have all been used in games this season. The MIDS and B3 have both scored a couple of hundred runs in other people's hands. The Hades had scored not very much, only in mine!

If I remember correctly, didnt this SG get bought by the bloke running kayano cricket from stoke on Trent and get restickered as something else

Yes, it did.

I also forgot the Redback I got from PDC in the advent specials that went for �20 more on ebay than the PDC price, after I thought they'd cancelled the order. Still, it meant I didn't have to pay postage and profited!

Only a few from me.

Salz V500
RSE cheif - Ebay special
RBK striker - ebay, but found it quite useful bat.
GM 606 - was dying when I got it.

Found this forum felt like I needed new bats,

Spyder - was my match bat, loved it but I always got caught - still in the bag
Some Kook that was bought and sold as I was using the spyder, lost money on it.
GM 909 Hero - was a mess as took a punt on ebay, overpaid, but sanded oiled and glued
Bulldog basher - match bat, love the shape, a shame I didnt knock it in that well, but a great middle.

Keep seeing bats for sale that I want to buy but don't need.

4 bats. Chronologically: I've had a Gunn & Moore Icon 808 which was an absolute beast, real tight grains with a sublime ping. Only got a new one because slight cracks appeared and it felt like it was about to break. I then got an Gray-Nicolls Blaze to finish off the season which was actually a quality bat for the price. �30-�40 around about. Then, last season I got a Gunn & Moore Epic L.E Original which I found was too light. V Sports gave me a 606 to pick up, as there were no L.E's in stock, which felt heavy enough. V said it'd be a similar weight, however when I actually got the L.E it was way too light (not v's fault though as all Epic's were just recently in stock). Also, the middle was too high for me...
When I gave up that bat this year, I decided to get a V Sports bat. It's a traditional bat with thin edges but a really tall spine. Pings like a beauty. And that's about it for my bats in the last 2 years.

BDM Aerodynamic - well weighted, punchy bat - broke in the toe
Adidas Pellara - belonged to a pro that moved county and left his kit so he told everyone it was all up for grabs - broke in the toe
Woodstock Curve - best bat. Went to visit Jon in Plumton Green where he used to live. Top bloke - gave to my brother (idiot!)
Bradbury Players - 2.10 low middle. Really good bat but hard pressed - sold
Bradbury Players - 2.8 another good one but middle was too high for me - sold
Newbery Custom - had to sell the two bradbury to get this one. It's still opening up but its a very special bat.

forgot about my Adidas Pellara, bit of heart wood, looked good, but never got on with it.

Racked my brain and think I've remembered all of them now

Woodworm Torch
B&S Crusader
2 x Woodworm Satellite (one broke the first time I use it so had a replacement)
Holt & Haskell Courtsey Bat (had that for 3 months waiting for the replacement woodworm)
Wasp Sting 1000
Chase 150 Finback
CA T20 (now my Dad's)
Chase 175 Beluga
Slazenger V100
GN Powerbow (2005 model - now dead after I fixes it

)
GM Purist (stickered up as a Neon pink)
Woodstock Tour De Force
GM Octane F2

Think that makes 14 plus my vintage GM Autograph, it's better/worse than I thought

Tried my best to think but just too many. Have sold and traded masses mainly to teammates and people I know.
By have acquired easily upwards of 100 in the past two years!
That is including swaps and buying! But I have calmed down considerably now!!
