Occasionally the 'owner' of one of the Asian companies will pop up on here, ask everyone to justify telling people "if it looks too good to be true, steer clear" and will then disappear never to be heard from again.

My personal favourite was this PR Masterclass  http://custombats.co.uk/cbforum/index.php?topic=35222.0

I completely forgot about this! Made for an entertaining read after a day off wasted on having to do a safety course.

So what happened to batsupplies.com? I was curious about their prices so went to have a look....but it looks as though they have disappeared?

[WalkingWicket37]

Their website has gone and they've not posted anything on Facebook since13th June - curious...

[petehosk]

I am honestly an optimistic person naturally......but even I would be surprised if they turn up again with the same name!
Shame really as I would love to see a site offer some mind boggling deals that turn out to be genuine one day, rather than feeling let down by these sites every time!
It would be refreshing!

How did I miss that??

Another flash in the pan, charging around with his balls out, looking to pick a fight on here, and justify his existance as a genuine supplier of kit and a force for good.

I'd honestly have been really happy if he'd turned out to be the real deal, but once again a damp little internet firework, sputtering out in the gutters of the information super-highway.

Genuinely hope you prove me wrong Dylan - you were very excitable

I asked a relative as she lives in Singapore and she says that they sell genuine bats and a few people who play cricket there buy from them

Have been living and playing in Singapore for a long time. Have never heard of them. And they don't have a store presence either. Am quite wary of places which don't have a return address or a local number.

Has the OP got his order delivered?

How long do you have before your right to file a Paypal claim is up?

@sgcricket Finally I found someone other than Amrit who is from Singapore. Which team you play for? I'm playing in Div 4 for IIT Alumni.

Sorry folks changing the topic but its always exciting to see someone from your backyard.

I think the reason the shipping is very slow is because they ship it by ship. ( just taking a guess as i don't think that if it was shipped by air it would take this long )

[sgcricket]

@Topgun so you still think this is a legitimate company? If so, are they based in Singapore? I seriously have my doubts. Luckily PayPal has a 180 day policy to file a claim

@swat I play for CSC. Have seen you carrying the huge aero tour bag (only one in Singapore)

You got me mate! I'm the only one with such a big bag and struggle everywhere. I know lot of people from CSC team. Have we met?

[Topgun]

I just suggesting that the reason for the delay might because the might post it by ship to save money...i dont know but if its bogus you can still get your money back

brilliantly worded. If I close my eyes I can imagine someone charging around with their balls out. You ever thought of screen writing as opposed to sign-writing?

Ok after a very long wait....I am going to call the Post Office of South Africa(If not busy striking again) to hear if there is any news on the
bat, if not I am going to go for a refund.Luckily I paid the PayPal method.Then going to buy myself a piece of willow from UK or South Africa.
