I will be grateful if players in Singapore could recommand addresses of badminton shops in Singapore, in which I can get ti10 around $150.

For $160 you can go to Bras Basah Complex, Ranking Sports on the 3rd floor.

Hi ! mustafa
Please the prices of the rackets in Singapore :
mp 100
mp 77
iso ti swing power
iso swing power 900
ti 10
ti8
ti7
iso 600
Thanks!

Here's what I know off hand:

mp 100 - SG$165
mp 77 - SG$165
iso ti swing power - SG$160
iso swing power 900 -No hope ... hard to find!
ti 10 - SG$145
ti8 -SG$ 135 ( maybe less )
ti7 - ??
iso 600 - SG$79 with BG-66 strings thrown in

You can go to Bras Basah ( Pronounced 'Brazz Ber-sa' ) Complex.

Music Room on the ground floor, Zenith Sports and Ranking Sports on the 3rd storey. For the latter 2, you may need to bargain a little. The first shop has the prices labelled already, no bargaining entertained.

Thanks ! Gladius
According to the prices you quoted, the prices in Singapore are lower
than Hong Kong.
No need to buy rackets in H..K. for foreigners.

Thanks a lot, Gladius!

No problem ! The shops are quite ok, just note that the stringing done in Ranking Sports is pretty sucky ... !

IMO, it sucks big time!!

I agree! It SUX BIG TIME!

Hahaha .... well, never thought it was that bad !!! :P

Are their rackets pre-strung? If they are 'sucks', I will buy them without string and do them myself.

Your guys are really helpful.

Yes! You better do that! : )

there's also another shop on the ground floor called IT @ work

The stringing at IT @ Work seems quite good. The stringing at Music Book Room is good

Yes, Music Room's stringing is quite good. Tension is pretty even and holds well after breaking in the strings. Just that they do not put enough wax at stringing like Kemin does and strings wear in a little before even breaking in !

But not bad at all a place to string.

I am back with two MP100SP rackets for SG$170 each, thanks for the pointers from everyone.

$170??
Hmmm... how do I say this?
"You wuz robbed of $10!", unless they include stringing, of course.

You can definately get them slightly cheaper than that!!
Anyway, I thought you were getting a Ti-10??

Changed my mind at last minute. I intended to get another ti10 as a spare, but couldn't resist the temptation of trying out the MP100. I managed to find MP100 at the 4th shop I visited. I guess S$170 isn't the best price. Not very surprising since I am a non-local buyer.

Have strung my new MP100 with BG66 at 22-24 lbs. I felt that mp100 is considerably less head-heavy than ti10. Of course, need time to have a real taste.

Cheers!

I see!
I'm curious, which shop did you purchase your racket from?
And which shop did you got your racket strung at?

haha....You have done that!

It was one of the shops on the 3rd floor (Ranking Sports?) at the Bras Basah Complex. I bought them without string and strung them myself after I got back. I noticed the shop at the ground floor, stringing there was done by amatures, looked way off my league. Thanks for the tip of not stringing there.

I was not impressed by all four shops (3 in the complex) I visited on their technique of stringing, frankly. Your guys in Singapore need to be more selective about where to get your rackets strung and by whom. Otherwise, all the benefits of having top range rackets will be diminished.

Another thing, don't forget to get some cash handy if you want to buy things there, credit card is no good.

Lao Liu,

actually, I don't know whats your definition of good stringing technique or are you referring to good stringing equipment?

For that matter, actually the 2 shops on the ground floor have better stringing techinique than the other 2 on the 3rd floor.

My guess is that

" I was not impressed by all four shops (3 in the complex) I visited on their technique of stringing, frankly. "

meant minimalist equipment ? Or do you mean you actually spent the time to watch them do stringing?

Please do not equate quality of stringing with quantity of equipment used. I have visted shops which have expensive computer controlled stringing machines and their strings sucked big time after I strung them ... and it lasted only half as long as my regular one which uses the 'normal' hand pull machines.

Am I correct on my guess ?

In THAILAND
mp 100 - SG$136
mp 77 - SG$108
iso ti swing power - SG$130
iso swing power 900 -No hope ... hard to find!
ti 10 - SG$1135
ti8 -SG$ 116 ( maybe less )
ti7 - SG$108
iso 750 - SG$ 125

the thread is 7 years old ........ someone dig it .....

in Singapore, could you let me know which shop sells NON genuine Yonex stuff ?

Actually, I saw some posts in this forum that mentioned that some shops do sell fake racquets in singapore. That got me worried.

You can safely shop for badminton stuff in singapore. Most of the shop mentioned are reputable.

can someone tell me whether prices are cheaper at bras basah complez or queensway shopping centre

Can we all shift to the price checklist thread instead. I think most questions are already answered there.

I would say it is cheaper @ queensway as compared to the Yonex shop @ Bras Barsah Shopping Complex (level one)

ranking sports at the 3rd floor or bras bersah suxs..i asked for my racket to be strung at 24lbs n they gave me 22lbs.. the yonex shop at the ground floor is gd!
