    How much you paid for it? It's a fake VT80.

    If that is fake
    That looks so realistic to a genuine Yonex Racket

    Its a very realistic looking fake indeed. Where did you buy it from? Its good that other BCers know this so that we can avoid buying this seller.

    They are also engraved incorrectly and are not realistic at all ;) (well let me water that down a bit, they're not far off and one half is pretty decent aside from the incorrect digits). Warning for printed serials are a little bit outdated by now ...
    Aside from that: hello, what website is that pic hosted on?? ;)

    most (if not all) of new fakes are laser engraved

    but you can see many obvious hints that it is fake apart from the cone code and shaft serial (check badminton365.com if you want to learn about fake racket lol..)
