if 'custom' means his stock shape at 2.12 plus...

I expect that Armie could get one made for you in Pakistan for around this price?

I ordered a Solitaire about 2 weeks ago. Roger said it would be ready by the beggining of last week. I have called and emailed him this week with no reply so cancelled my order, poor cutomer service in my view....

because you didn't state otherwise and you don't have much of a budget?

Kalph - To be honest, I have some awesome bats in my collection......a number of which are superb quality Asian bats!
A couple of CA bats, a Malik, Matrrixx and several SS bats are exellent! Granted that they don't have the nicest bat stickers normally, but these are top notch bats fella!  8)

And also...Saf bats are quality made so not too bad choice mate!

Has Solitaire gone bust? I can't find their website anymore either?!

I think their hosting ran out so its gone off the radar currently....in regards to the topic apart from going abroad to source a custom made bat Solitaire is the only place im aware of in the UK that will make you a "custom" bat for under £120.
