I'm sorry, but this is INSANITY!

The guy is an absolute fool.
Look at these screenshots I've taken from his Facebook posts!

Firstly, he copies the Nemesis style completely but with poor finishing and willow, demanding $2500, WHAT?!



Then, he makes a bat saying it is the best bat he's ever finished and wants $5000 for it?
It has permanent marker written all over the face for a start!
The guy is crazy, especially with his fake friend commenting that he will buy every bat he posts for the ridiculous prices.




The forum's very own Rowan, also sent me this image from his page..

I think he just has a Wierd sense of humour. And non off that is serious.


As for the "angle grinder" pic. Pretty sure that's a da polisher. Look very similar to an angle grinder, I have one to polish my car, you put velcrod pads on it to sand/polish.
Also that bat is in it wrapped plastic, so it's clearly a set up picture,

James revells in being unusual, provocative and getting reactions out of people.

The trick is to take it all with a huge pinch of salt and don't bite.

Sadly by the look of the comments on the pics and a few previous comments on the forum, a few haven't worked him out yet.

He can be a bit of a nightmare on the email - but he is the original example of 'Don't feed the Troll'

I wish I had his contacts and money - but without the erratic drinking behaviour.

................oh! Wait a minute

We would all like to be a penny behind him mate, but after a few fizzy pops we are all alike ;)

There is only one thing worse that being talked about and that is not being talked about I suppose.

Recently a Lekka bat had a quality issue. I contacted James and he said the bat was a fake when it definitely isn't. I think he still has to work on his customer support skills.

So when he's good, he's very very good. When he's bad, you wish you went somewhere else.

I have never used a LEKKA bat, but James has always been civil with me.

I think he used to source TK bats through another former high profile poster, but as mentioned, also had other suppliers from different sources.

It is a pity he is banned from here...I always found him to be OK.

I'm glad you found him ok. To chat to he is ok.
But to moderate on a forum I'm afraid he is high maintenance and causes all kinds of issues and runs people up the wrong way.
He is too outspoken and not diplomatic - especially on the forum!
Therefore he was banned, and that's the way it's staying.
