    For Voltric70, is there any similar racket in Victor range?

    TK8000 shouldn't be too different. Some have likened it to a VT80, but if Victor's stiffness rating is at least somewhat accurate the VT70 should be more similar.
    Other than that, SW36 was kinda similar as well, but not quite as head heavy.

    From Victor website, it seems SW36 has been discontinued.
    TK8000 on Victor's racket mapping grid seems out of place...but if what u say is correct, I might just give it a try

    If you like the Vt-80 you will like the TK8000. Right amount of flex. Very easy to use and lots of control.
    But you may not like the whippy feeling!

    That's why I recommended it - the VT70 has that same 'whippy' (imop 'laggy') feeling ;)
    Both are medium flex and pretty head heavy. I really think the VT70 should be more similar to the TK than the VT80, as that one really is a stiff racket. Not a really stiff racket, mind you :D

    BBE Sports' Taobao shop - it is legit. I have purchased from this store several times.

    Victor's pricing in China is the cheapest, compared to other countries.

    Please note that when you buy online then you should also calculate the (A) EMS rate from China to your country, and (B) Import duties / taxes rates applicable for badminton products at your country.


    If I'm not mistaken Singaporean government impose the import duties for any package having value more than SGD400. If your package is below that value, then it will be free from any duties / taxes. CMIIW

    All BS series are made in China. No BS made in Taiwan bro.

    When you buy from Taobao sellers, first thing is to ensure the reputation of the sellers, i.e., crown, diamond, or heart.

    Victor usually inform the highest RRP for its product in China, and Taobao sellers usually discounted the RRP up to 40-45% as the retail price.

    This is why the Victor pricing is a lot cheaper in China, compared to South East Asian pricing - which is usually only provides discount up to 30-35% of the RRP.

    If I'm not mistaken, BBE Sports is a reputable badminton seller, even before the existence of Taobao. cmiiw

    Actually,the higher the number of crowns, diamonds or heart doesn't mean that the seller sells authentic items. I suggest you buy from 天猫 which the items are guarantee authentic. Buying from BBE sports is also a optional choice.

    Specs are identical to BS12/N except for G6 grip size.
    But I like the blue!
