I just got back from HK just now...with my wife....I spent about a $1000 SGD on badminton stuff for myself, wife and my khakis...I bought 4 rackets, 10 grip wraps, 1 racket bag, about 6 cloth bags, 4 tops for my wife, 6 shorts for myself and wife and lots of other stuff...

My best shopping experience is to go to Mr Chan of e78.com...I went all the way to Sheung Hei Street to find him. Although he was not that good in spoken English, he took the liberty to communicate through his Ipad where I type all the words and he read then translated in Cantonese...there was no problem even I was a Malay. He was fine, cool and gave me lots of discounts..Spent about $4860 HKD alone at his place...

My Hong Kong holiday was badminton paradise for me....It was SHIOK arghhhhh... if you guys need any information about the shops in HK...let me know and I can share my experience.....=)

If you can find Kin Yee Sports Shop...You can see the INS Salon poster...go up to the 1F floor that means 2nd floor in HK. Then you will find the Wan Kee racquet shop...the price is better..=)
