    It was meant to be the substitute for 818SP. Comparing ST50 with 818SP, the latter model is still way better due to its durability.

    hmm, i always thought that ST50 is 818SP but with a new name. Never knew that it was meant to be the substitute for 818SP.

    Well, you aren't wrong though. If I have my informaion collected correctly, ST50 was made in a different factory from 818SP.

    But currently i only saw ST50 in sintec shop now. Never saw 818SP anymore, or maybe i didn't open my eyes bigger and look around.

    Thx for clearing my doubts~

    I didn see 818SP oso. How much for 818SP? I bought one ST50 76 ($30) in Sintec Chinese Garden branch. Initially i found it is quite expensive, maybe this is the first time i try local brand.

    I just finished playing with my friend today, it is very nice shuttle, at least better than i thought. If 818SP has better durability, i would like to try next time. :)

    Does anyone try both Aeroplane EG1130 (black) and 818SP before? Can give a short review?

    Is aeroplane black available in SG and how much is it? Thanks.

    I feel 818SP has better durability. The EG1130 is priced at $28~$30 per tube at Queensway SC. There is a limited stock on 818SP so it can be a problem if you want to use this particular model on a consistent basis.

    I personally prefer Sealion shuttlecocks.It's quite durable,and the good thing about it is that it doesn't become slower after using it.It actually becomes "better".
