I am still in two minds over getting a bat on this deal. I like the look of some of the profiles but the quality in blades have been disappointing. Especially the 3 stripe grade.

Is this deal even still available? Will consider if it is.

I would be very grateful for your code for the deal if you choose not to use it.

I think I'd cry if I opened a brand new bat to find a dent in the spine like that 

Other than that lovely looking bat, if I wanted to stir shit up I may even say it looks better than some of the 3 stripes posted 

Cheers Cam for your comment I do disagree but thanks for your comments.

As for the packaging I'm upset about this as it something I was told was rectified and I have let b3 know my issue with this as well.

Dave,
I did say that bit about the 3 stripe very tongue in cheek following other member's comments, and I thought my line about if I wanted to stir made that clear. If anyone took it seriously please don't!

I was more than happy with my 3 Stripe using this deal, 6/7 nice and straight grains (not loads but enough imo) and a clean face, meets what I'd expect from a G1 bat.

No mate just comments can be mistook no issue from me at all pal.

Hope you enjoy your bat and others there's....

Lot of what you say is tongue in cheek I see good way to be is using humour ,wit, sarcasm,.

Where is the bloomin' like button when I need it the most!

[e4sby]

I've got to agree with Dave on this one. Sarcasm sometimes doesn't come across well in word form and can be easily misconstrued by others....

Yes B3 could've done better in this case, I'm sure Dave and Streaky will be in touch.

Here's my 50% off B3. It's a new DB1 LB. It's meant to be 2lb 9.5oz finished. It feels a bit lighter than that, because it is - 2lb 8.5oz according to my scales. Pretty happy with that!

It's my first LB and it's an idea I've been flirting with for a while but never pulled bought an LB. So when this opportunity came up I thought it was time to try. It's a grainilicious 1-stripe (~13-14) with a couple of stains/hard bars. I like it - plenty of grains and character - for a 1-stripe.

The finishing is superb - it's right up there with the best I've had including L&W and Salix. But that was offset by some minor dents the bat suffered on its way down under. There is a prominent dent on the peak of the spine and one on the toe. This is disappointing considering I had asked for it to be packaged with extra bubble wrap. Unfortunately the bat was placed in a plastic bag then wrapped with a layer of single sided corrugated card before being placed inside the bat box - with no bubblewrap! I would have been pretty unhappy if I had spent more money on it.

Haven't tested the ping yet. Don't want to disturb the neighbours tonight. Judging from everyone's experience, I'll probably just knock the toe and edges before netting with it.

Hi @smokem  - really sorry that this has happened, after the first incident of dints (bat exported) I instructed the packers to use bubble wrap. When @procricket B3 informed me about yours I went to see the chap that packed it and he said that he always put bubble wrap on, but obviously not in your circumstance. I can only appologise for this and will make it up to you on your next B3 order!

Hope you are pleased with everything else!

Streaky

Thanks Streaky and Dave for the follow-ups and yes I'm pleased with everything else. Can't wait to get the edges knocked and hit the nets!
