Just had a look on there Facebook page and they do have some nice looking clefts available, stickers and design look ok as well. Be interested to know who makes and presses theses bats?

just for clarity, python is Garrettj's business.

No problem toenails. I didn't want to let you know it was me as I wanted you to get the same level of service that I would give every other customer. I'm glad you are happy with the buying process and the bat. It should be with you very soon. Post on here an honest review.

I will be applying for forum sponsorship but in the mean time, if the forum allows it, I will answer questions in this thread.

First one .... I have signed a confidentiality agreement with the batmaker so can't divulge that information. All I can say is I got the services as a result of a very very good longstanding friend, who plays county cricket, pulling a few strings.

Its uk pressed and made to answer that question.

Well GarrettJ I'm very impressed with how you went about things and kept me up to date with every fine detail about the bat....thank you for that! Yeah I'll post a honest review of what I think of the bat hopefully it's as nice as it looks, how did you find it performed of the mallet?

That's fair enough Garrett!

I have to admit tony, you're a braver man than I to send £200 quid to some guy on facebook after receiving a few pictures and some emails.

That would be riskier than I was willing to take on.

Toenails initially contacted me on the Facebook

Soon there will be a fully operational website that takes payments and if anyone has questions ill give them my phone number and address.

We are in the process of creating every aspect of this operation properly and it will be sorted by 1 September.

Was just about to say it wasn't just like an instant process it was just like buying from a forum sponsor imo

It's a risk I wouldn't have taken personally but sometimes a risk pays off and it seems to have on this occasion. Good luck with the bat and good luck with your company GarrettJ

Sometimes big risks get big rewards - looks a good piece of willow pal, nice and grainy. Enjoy!

Personally I think it's being worth it. I have tracked the bat and should be with me very shortly so expect a review :)
