Online Stockist Custom Bat Grade 2
« on: February 17, 2016, 03:52:10 PM »
Hi Guys, Im looking at getting a grade 2 custom bat from online stockist. I have read some of the posts on here and heard about the customer service....Just want to know what the blades are like? Im not investing big so not expecting it to be life changing but would like to to not be a plank!

Any info would be great

Honestly, go to a forum sponsor. I can't believe they couldn't do something for you in your price range, and you get piece of mind.

Seconded. If I were you I'd drop Jake @ Vitas and Paul/Chris @ IJC an email with your requirements, I'm sure you'd find both very helpful and they really will go the extra mile to sort you out!

Also John @Red Ink Cricket or Ryan Kelsall could sort you out something at a good price in a lower grade.

It will have to be something very low grade to match the £59 ols charge just for a blank bat !

How custom a service do you get for a custom made OLS bat?
To me it looks like the "custom" option is to chose your weight, grip type, scuff sheet preference and if they claim to have oiled and knocked the bat in or not.

Don't forget the optional nail in the handle 😉

Just remember if you buy cheap, you buy twice...

Don't waste your money, spend an extra £20/£30 and get something from one of the retailers on here.

That usually true, but on here I think a more appropriate saying would be "however much your bat costs, you'll end up with at least 5 of them!"  ;) :D

Haha too true - more like buy one, get another one for the same price (and repeat!)

Do not buy their custom bats (OLS). One of my friend got a bat from them, it was very soft pressed..literally left himuge dents on knocking and ping was #&#-#. Do yourself a favor and better contact Jake @Vitas Cricket or @ItsJustCricket. They have bats in all range that they hand  pick and service is excellent.
