I guess most of us have seen this collaboration involving the cricket-loving Stones, Gray Nics & Pro Direct.

Now available at a mere snip...

Who's going to be first then?  :D

£1500?!? Do they think the public are that much of a mug?

What a joke. Expected better from GN tbh.

Not sure they would establish the price - would imagine that would be left to the retail arm of the collaboration.  Insane pricing though, I'm not sure how many have been made but that effectively prices 99% of people out of that bat, and in the other 1% you'll have to find someone who doesn't think that's a rip-off, or doesn't mind that it's a rip-off.

I’ll wait until appears in the sale weekend with 30% off be a bargain then lol.

Can’t you do a GN factory tour ( captains experience) for £800 odd and get “any GN bat included made to your exact specs”

It’s exclusive to PDC, they’ll have a say in the pricing - I get the exclusivity side but it’s just taking the Mick Jagger charging that much for me

I think this is more of a collectors item than one for your kit bag, I’d see the value at 1500 if the Stones had signed them all individually but that some mark up!

Are we maybe forgetting that there's way more Rolling Stones fans than cricket gear geeks and the bat maybe appeals to them more. I bet some people are crazy about the Rolling Stones and would pay anything for one off memorabilia....just a thought

Rediculous that.

Absolute madness for a cricket bat.
