Ask for money back

Use it the way it is

Or pay to have a new handle in

[simonmay5]

Hi guys I bought a really nice bat the offer day from a well know source when I was knocking the bat in I decided to change the grip when I rolled the grip down I found to my horror a nail that has rusted in going though the Handle

A novel way to do a counterweight! Check there isn't any cocaine inside the bat!

As its a small tack Shouldn't be detremantal to the bats performance could apply wood filler but not exceptable ask for your money back.

Well that is something I haven't seen before. Unless it's the perfect bat for you, I would send it back. Too much doubt of why it's there and if it's going to break.

[simonmay5]

It's got two nails In one each side and the Handel looks to have a crack In it

The bat maker was not expecting you to roll down the grip. 

Return the bat, get your Money back. Tell us about the bat maker so that we check our handles as well.

It's going to cost a bit to send it back overseas

That's the proplem don't know if to open a PayPal case or just get a decent Handel put in just a bit annoyed by it I hope that the company I bought it from would do something but not crossing my fingers

It's always distressing when you find something like this on your pride and joy. I don't envy you having to get a refund or replacement from overseas. Fingers crossed it works out. This is why you should use a forum sponsor so you can take it back to them!

Is that a water stain on the twine?

Totally agree that I should off used a forum sponsor but never expected to find a nails in the Handel does anyone know how It will stand if I took a PayPal case out as it's not fit for purposes

No it's where the glue has not been applied to that area

You'll still have to pay for return postage out of your own pocket

It seems that I would be better to pay and get a decent Handel in it as it's going to cost about 25 pounds to send back

I'm pretty sure it's not the only time on this forum the nail in the handle topic has been posted.
