Cricmart.in just starting following me on Instagram which got me looking at their website. I've noticed that they've got the new New Balance bats on there for what appears to be a bargain price of �79 for the 580+ model amongst others!

Has anyone had dealing with them before? I've tried searching the forum but it's not revealed many topics about them. Is it a case of too good to be true?

Nah they are a trustworthy site - you can ask WalkingWicket, he bought his Master from there

I wouldnt say its a bargain price, they are all in around that price range - give or take

are you sure its 79 pounds? it says its 173USD - you still have to pay postage too

Thanks mate, my wallet didn't want to hear that but I'll consider them for future purchases now.

Yes - very trustworthy. Swat is fantastic to deal with. My TON Player Edition was sent on a Monday and got to me on a Thursday!

Were there any custom or import duties @nwillam12 ?

For any natural timbre product i.e. cricket bat, the returns will be solely on Cricmart discretion. Due to the nature of cricket, most companies do not allow us to return the item unless it is in original condition. Cricmart will try and help our customer wherever possible but with no guarantees. We advice all our customer to knock in your bat before you use it, especially areas like edges and toe as these are the most common areas to break.

Just a reminder of their 'returns' policy.

Basically, if it breaks, tough tits.

That is a bit off putting.

I understand Jake's stance on a business model that's competing directly with him - on some levels anyway - but sometimes it's hard to resist something that's so much cheaper, on some of their bats you could buy a replacement or two and still not be out of pocket compared to the UK RRP.

Whether products for the Indian market are of poorer quality I don't know, and i guess only the guys who have bough both can comment on.

It's a gamble isn't it. That's all.

Do you want to play a game?

Spend a 100 on a bat. You may get a good one that last a good few seasons and it's a bargain to be had. Woohoo cricket rules.

But
If it breaks and you have no comeback as cricket refuses to refund/replace. You've lost your gamble.

Not a gambling man?
Buy from vitas, pay an extra few quid for the same thing, but you know that if it breaks or develops an issue, you got a good lad to drop back on and help you replace the bat when it does.

I have bought from cricmart and they are trustworthy. The only drawback is unreturnable or unexchangebale but most people take it as a gamble:)
For sure the south asian bats handles are of very poor quality. Just knocked in three SS bats where handle on couple flexes like a bitch whereas the handle on Laver & Wood is quite firm. More money need to be poured to change the handles.

Personally speaking, I would put in the extra 20 odd bucks and get a X3 from Red Ink.
