No mate, have a read on there website - guess it depends if your after a stock profile or something bespoke (drawn up on cad). Drop them a email or send a pm to the forum member procricket B3 (Dave) and I'm sure he'd be happy to advise.

I have a Red Ink custom and I can confirm that the bat is a stunner, huge really well made and great communication. I have also just had some bats delivered from Online Stockist and their quality is great! It really depends what you want, if you want to decide on a truly custom bat, handle/shape etc then go for the forum! But if you want to spend less than 100 of lizzies pounds then go for OLS and you will PROBABLY get better value than a UK based seller. I stress this is a maybe as always with cricket their are exceptions that prove the rule just my opinion!

Although, by all accounts, OLS offer a very good service and some good product too, and their prices are often lower than retailers such as ourselves, Uzi and Vitas, you will always have to pay shipping and possibly import duties as well with them, as others have mentioned. With us there is no import duty to Ireland, and we offer free delivery to there too if your order is over £100. A bat at OLS would therefore have to be a lot cheaper to compete with us on price. List prices only tell you so much...

No skype costs nothing mate would be glad to help we can make anything in any weight.

From top grade to bottom.

Many others also offer decent thing what you will get of me though is honest opinion plain and simple.

And if you don't want to talk to me you can talk to the doctor !!!!

If you want information on our bats or any others I love talking cricket and bats

Take Dave up on his offer of a chat!

Just from email exchanges with him I've learned a lot. If Dave doesn't know something about bats it probably isn't worth knowing!  :)

@efcon24 have a look at the Bellingham and Smith section. Thre three star Assegai bats are £100 and are really good value for money.

As for others look at Ryan kelsall and Red Ink and  handmade decent sticks and good prices too. I guess there all sorts from re branded to re sticker company all with good bats.

Its a good forum full of great bats and larks so many hell4leather to sareen from vks to bas from uzi. So many


I'm quite experienced in bats as others are you will get no crap sales just honest truth.

I know how good our bats are from all grades
