That's alot for somebody who isn't playing much

to be fair that is kit purchases spent over a 3 year period and a lot of the cost have been off-set by the sale of older kit and a loft clear out of my old golf kit etc.

I am not sure I paid all that for my kit - the pads and gloves were bought at a discount but those would be the replacement costs.

Most of my kit is at least worn in and not all brand spanking new! Since last season I have sold two/three bats and bought two bats the costs just about netted out. Sold older gloves and bought new ones, there was a cost to that!! I have sold an aweful lot of stuff over the last few months either on here or eBay. I have used the estimated replacement costs should the kit get half inched...

I would say that over this winter my net spend on cricket kit is less than �100 - which is offset by the sale of golf stuff - so Nick I have probably spent less than you

best thing about wearing old kit is that it is very comfy and the fielding team tend to think that you are a rabbit. Takes them about 10 overs and 30 or so runs for them to realise it isnt luck and you can actually bat.

I kind of agree with this - although I like to look smart rather than overly dishevelled. There is a view that you can intimidate the oppo buy looking like you know what you are doing...

I'm blaming b3 and my love of a bargain for spending more than you Buzz lol.

I think you are right in principle that if it's just wear and tear, then kit shouldn't cost much more than �100 over the winter. Putting bats aside, pads/gloves/boots are the main wear items. You can probably do it for �100-250 depending on whether you want to shop at sports direct or buy proper gear.

GarrettJ · « **Reply #19 on:** March 10, 2014, 10:52:04 AM »

you can get proper gear from sports direct or you can go to pro direct and pray they have them in stock.

no need what so ever to pay more than 60% of the RRP on any kit other than a bat.
