Where to buy racquets in HK?

[Simby]

Hey. I found a post that posted some places to buy racquets in HK from.

Which of these places will be cheapest for the Wilson nCode 5 TENNIS racquet? I live in Canada so I'm gonna get my grandpa to buy it for me. or is there a different place that you recommend?

Thanks!

I doubt it if it comes with warranty. But I will do it, with warranty.

I bought several rackets from Wan Kee many times and Wan Kee rejected to string in 25lbs for me. Finally, I get the string and strung the racket at home.

I have experience to strung 25lbs in Master Keen, Emmy and Racket shop and final result were OK. For Rose, I have a bad experience that a brand new racket (Carlton Aerogear 05) broken in 22lbs after two hits and Rose rejected to replace for me.

Many Pro-shops (Owner is badminton player) will consider to string high tension for client, but client must agree not to ask claim if the racket break due to high tension.

Agree. So I think that it is more difficult to find a stringer that suit my requirement than looking for an old version racket. :o

I thought normal players use 25lbs? I hardly seen anyone with less than 24lb on their high end racket(s). I only put 25lbs on my 4 cab 20s, because they are hard to be replace and need special care, I simply dont care for the rest... although I have never gone over 30.

I dont string my own racket but if the price is good, I would be looking for a cheapo one to play with. Any suggestion(s)?
