My Private Bin
« on: December 08, 2009, 04:28:21 PM »
Just recieved my Private Bin from James today.
Its an absolute beast
Grade 1 English Willow
8 grains, a few slight marks
Weight: around 2lb 10oz with a very good pickup
Ping is mint

James is good to deal with, and in case of custom charges he marks the price of the package down alot so they are lower.

Nice bat. But the way these Lavers play is even better than they look!
They are a classy bat - enjoy!!  ;D

Why "private bin" seems an odd name to call a model of bat? or is it merely as the willow is placed in reserve for selected bats??

The Private Bin are made from the top 20% of willow. So it is the same as the wine reference!
And they are around £280 - so not cheap. But they are seriously good bats!

Id want someone included to do the running between the wickets for that price as well as mop my brow after each shot! I'm guessing a decent slice of that must be the postage cost though to get it over here from NZ (in the region of £30 i would guess) but even then it's still a £250 bat.

Each to their own though, something is only worth what another person is willing to pay for it.
