    Hi guys, I bought brand new both ISO 800T and SLIM10 overseas back in 96.

    THe racquets and the BG-65 (22lb i think) were never ever used. In fact, it still has factory plastic wrapping on the handle. My question is, how much can I get for them?

    As to why I never used it is because after I finished HS, i didn't have any more motivation left to play.

    Any input would be nice. Or else I think i'll just let Ebay auction decide the price for me.

    Please state your country/location.

    BTW, I think ISO 800T should be HK$600-700 and ISO Slim 10 should be HK$700-800 if they are brand new in shop. If get it from private owner, it should have 80% discount.

    Any plp have comments?

    80% discount?? i dont think he would want to do that. if he bought his racquet for $ 100 dont think he'll sell it for $20. way too low.

    80% discount??? Wow, tell me where you can get used (or never been used) goods like that and I will buy a car. :D :D

    Bluesaint,
    Not knowing where you are but probably not asia as you bought those racquets from overseas. I would guessed that you are in N. America. It's hard to get those models anymore but I can ask folks at my club to see if they are interested and what kind of $$ (CAD) they might be willing to offer. Any pics would be greatly appreciated. I would buy them (since both the ISO 800 and Slim 10 are great racquets) myself but unfortunately I don't use Yonex anymore (found better and cheaper racquets - Winex, Sotx, JooBong). ;)

    Just to let you guys know, the way discounts are referred to in chinese is a percentage of the original price. ie a discount price at 90% of the original price.

    Western countries advertise the equivalent as "10% off the original price"

    Hope that clears up the confusion.:)

    Sorry, Cheung is right.

    I mean 20% off which in Chinese means 80% discount.

    I say 150USD for both is probably reasonable.
    Since they are old anyway.
