I'm not, 3 things on my list, may add one more, and already ordered some gray nics softs!! I need help. Lol

£500 for a players edition! Does anyone pay these prices for bats anymore???

I'm contemplating one to merely put in a box in my bat room, and preserve it for the future(not to make money before anyone tries to tell me it won't, I'm not interested in that)

Now will de kok or root be the biggest player in ten years?

£450 if you pre order from us though. ;)

Many retailers were selling at prices approaching £500 in 2014, taking into account the 2015 prices i feel we will represent good value when compared to other retailers.

We have sold 3 GN Legends (£575) on pre-order.

Player Edition bats aren't sold in huge numbers, but equally they aren't available in large numbers. Clefts that will give the sort of volume required in a sensible weight are very rare. Robin has had 3 Player Editions himself, loves them.

I'm sure they're great bats, but when you look at the prices B3, Aldred and Blank Bats are knocking out top quality butterfly bats for, you have to question who needs a £500 bat. The vast majority us are just club cricketers and as such shouldn't really need anything else other than a butterfly or G3. Saying that I do recognise that people will always want the best in the hope it might make them a better batsman, so your £450 offer should sell a few at least :)

Not sure a butterfly cleft (which are basically given away) can be compared with a player edition GM

Plenty of people out there who turn their noses up at minor blemishes, so i suspect a butterfly would probably offend them! It doesn't matter if i point out that a butterfly or blemish may not impact performance (can be argued that butterfly would perform better over time) to certain customers, they want the very best bat, both in terms of looks and performance.

Is it still not possible to chose what weight your Players bat will be?

Jake, what are the pick-ups like on the Mogul and Aura? I need a light bat...

Considering the duffle, 909 Gloves and an 808 bat...
