I have to disagree slightly. I went into CJI cricket the other day, and he had 2 of the '250' models which are grade three, and they looked really nice for the price!

Oh I see what you mean. I am guessing you are meaning 335 as in price: £335?

I think some of the lower grade kookaburras are brilliant value for money. And the profiles are huge on some of the lighter bats. I picked up a 2lb 7oz bat the other day and it was really big for the weight.

Yes, not bad looking, but these are the biggest profit making bats available, plain grade 1 made in India and not any better a mid range bat.

The finisher briefly had one, so he could be one to ask.

I know another guy who occasionally sells £400.00 bats made from low grade willow (albeit very pretty) how are profits on those?
