Hi,

Happy New year and all that!!

Has anyone seen or heard of the online cricket store dkp cricket online? I've not heard of it before...

Just wondering what people think about the bats on this website - does it all look legit? Just wondering as my son has shown me this site as he's after a new bat.

Thanks,
Mike

Hi Mike

Yep it's ran by a guy who was selling on eBay called Batman originally I think but his name is Nik (Patel I think), I know people who have bought from him and been to see the bats in the flesh (he's based Birmingham way from memory).

Hope that helps

thanks for the replies.

Well that's good to know that it's all ok. Will have a good look now then. Some of the prices seem quite good and the bats look pretty good as well.

Cheers
Mike

He's more than open to people to go and look at his bats and stock or was in the past
I've been a couple of times

Nick has some very good bats I had a few off him that went really well

As people have said I have met him and seems a  nice bloke with a decent selection.

I would  be interested  to know if anyone can comment on his after sales service i.e. something  gone wrong with the  bat and how he sorted it.

His prices  are quite high and will be good if they arw backed by a good after sales service.

I can give a bit of feedback on this - I bought a pair of SS embossed S pads off him 2 years ago and both prior to purchase and at the time money exchange hands I asked him to confirm they weren't small Indian men's as I'm 6ft. Low and behold they arrived and yep you've guessed it small men's. Now whilst I can't quibble about returning them and he even gave me a call to discuss and offer me a alternative I ended up footing the bill for postage which considering it was his error was very poor in my opinion (this was the main reason I asked for a refund rather than a exchange).

If I was to buy again I'd visit especially if picking a bat.

Hi mike
Nic Is  based close to central Birmingham. My local Gumtree website states you can visit by arrangment if possible and see the Bats  etc also there are other earlier   posts on here re Nic one states   he sells from his mothers house.

I bought a CA off him from eBay last year - great blade, good contact and very helpful seller.
Would recommend.

I bought a bat from him that turned out 2oz heavier than claimed. Since I'm overseas I was left pretty much high and dry. Hopefully he has some scales now...

He sold me a GM with a crack in the shoulder. Asked to return, at which point he blamed me and refused a refund. I'd avoid.

Why's it always you, Phil?

Some useful comments, I would suggest you clarify with him about his stand if anything goes wrong with the bat and then make your decision. With website and all he may have changed his views on after sales support.

Do keep us posted on your experience.
