Larsons is the same as CA Pakistan- think of buying each bat as buying a storm damaged cleft. Many turn out to have good performance but Could BREAK ANY DAY and then they don't want to know you anymore.

lot more issues with bats from their facebook person -thats for sure. Not sure if those are overdried even more than usual to make them bigger.

Much Safer/Better to go SS/SG/BAS

I took the plunge and ordered the Kohli profile yesterday afternoon. I deal with a bloke called Harit. I messaged him on FB and then he asked me to contact him via What'sAp. Originally I wanted one of the bats with the multi-grains and some redwood but he sold me on the Kohli profile. Overall he was good to deal with and I felt for £178 it was a reasonable risk/punt. I should get the bat about Monday which I though was an reasonable turn around. I'll report back when I have the bat in my hands. If the bat works out well then I would certainly be tempted again with those prices.

You did well JT - I actually struggled on the communication front. Questions such as 'can I see a profile pic' and 'how much is the bat' seemed a little tricky, so I gave up.

I bought RNS Unik from the dealer in USA years back, still going strong. Thinking of same, I ordered one from his facebook posts. Not completely satisfied. Its a average bat for the 200 US dollars. I would suggest to talk to him regarding the profile you want and also ask him for the pics of the bat once its finished. Tough to get a hand on a good RNS bats now a days.

Isn't that any bat you buy? You're buying a natural product!

@IQ - I understand you may have had bad experience with Larsons or CA bat. But it may not happen to everyone. I still have an old CA 12k which works really well. RNS Larsons was new entry for me too, but with the exception of thin handle, their bat performance seems to fine. Let's see how it turns out in the long run.

Even I'm tempted by some, especially with guarantees like this!!!  ;)
A1 ROCK CRICKET BAT
The best bat in the whole world! It has got a power and can hit every ball for a 6

Was a nice looking stick and intrigued by what power it poseses to hit every ball for 6? Matt - get searching!!

I guess they are going a little overboard with marketing ...  :D

Apparently all 3 together is $330!! £224 for three bats is crazy, can only assume they're highly average bats.

Almost worth the risk for £75 each!

Seems a pretty typical price for grade 4 made in India to me

The RNS bats I've seen have been quite nice, but there does seem to be consistent comments about poor after sales

After sales meaning delivery?

No, customer care should anything go wrong with the bat. The general consensus seems to be that they don't even respond to emails when this happens
