A man wearing a white and gold pinstripe suit in a chip shop at a 2am once told me he could get me any DVD I wanted, even ones that hadn't come out yet, and that he had them all in the boot of his car, and because I was 19 and drunk I gave him �15 for 10 DVDs, he let me pick them myself out of the boot of his car. But when I got home, they were all blank CDs. Life lessons.

Really?

He gave me cassettes I think you got the better deal

What I'm saying is his expectations were not unrealistic but maybe think before you buy from certain places

I Lol'd.

Upsides, @ogroupleader , that handle is so long, you could use it as a pool cue? All is not lost here.

I've heard nothing but bad reviews about OLS are they really that bad? By the looks of it they are !

ALOT of people on here swear by their softs, cheap but good quality. Bats & customer service however..

I would blame you for having unrealistic expectations from someone who is not a bat maker. OLS is great for standard bats or even for the typical LH/LB option. Not for custom options, especially when they have to source it from a brand like SF. Also, you should have properly mentioned 'Blade 1 inch shorter and standard length bat'.

Don't even start. I can send you the full transcript of the messages sent and received. There was absolutely no confusion about what I required. The breakdown happened with the factory.
I did get a paypal refund on this.

I wonder if they have glued an extra bit to the top of the handle to make it that long. Might have to whip the twine off and see what lurks beneath....

I assume OLS think they have done nothing wrong and will beg you to close the imminent PayPal case?

Paypal case is already resolved.

When I sent pics OLS denied everything. Said the bat was 100% the correct size and that he checked it himself before it was sent out. My original photo to them was without a tape measure and he claimed that I had chopped the bottoms off the other 3 bats in the photo to make the SF look bigger than it was!!!!!
After my response to this with additional photos and a tape measure and the assertion that he was a blatant liar he did not respond.

Just curious, do you have to send the bat back?

All Joking aside, how is the ping and the pick up, the longer handle should make it better

Fantastic ! OLS always promises more than he can actually deliver. Happy that you got a refund. I had a nightmare experience with him and after that i ensured my team members never buy anything from OLS.

I would assume best bet is to approach a local retailer and ask them to handle this special request. It will put your mind at ease !

The bat was heavier than requested. It weighed just under 2.12. And it picked up like a pig.

Yeah i lost my shot when i read his reply. So instead of getting angry i put together the most comprehensive case paypal has ever seen.

All said and done, OLS do stock excellent bats from SS, SF, TON and SG. Like I mentioned in my earlier post, they are great if you want a regular bat as all they need to do is stock it from the company. The best way to buy a bat from them of course it to pick one that OLS has put pics of on their FB page. My point was that when you go for customization, you always run a risk similar to this one.
