Authentic Yonex Voltric 80? :)

**ioxyg3n520** · 02-07-2012, 05:30 PM

Hi. I think this is an authentic racket, but since I payed so much for the first time for a racquet, I would just like to confirm you know

Do you see how when I put my racket flat down, the Voltric 80 words aren't exactly facing up. Is that normal?

Thanks!

where did you buy it from? (website name, shop name)

how much?

**ioxyg3n520** · 02-07-2012, 05:44 PM

ebay. $200

**ioxyg3n520** · 02-07-2012, 05:46 PM

why is there something wrong? lol

***kwun*** · 02-07-2012, 05:46 PM

ebay seller name?

the more information you give us, the better we can help you.

**ioxyg3n520** · 02-07-2012, 05:47 PM

squash_mart, but lets say you don't know the seller, does it look authentic?

**ioxyg3n520** · 02-07-2012, 05:50 PM

well it wasn't really directly "from" ebay because I emailed the store and we did a direct buy on email.

the code 091112TW -does that mean it was manufactured on the 09/11/2012 ? if that is true then you got a fake !!!

**Staiger1** · 02-07-2012, 05:58 PM

serial code is too low for the racket to be made in 2012 !!!

those codes should be engraved and not printed on ,

**ioxyg3n520** · 02-07-2012, 06:01 PM

you sure? O.o

**Staiger1** · 02-07-2012, 06:02 PM

from the photo of the racket head , where the Yonex logo located at 6'oclock look very suspicious to me . One positive would be that most intermediate players could not tell the different in the way it will play ......... thats why I keep saying unless you are an advance player , there is no point in getting a racket over $80

sorry bro !

**ioxyg3n520** · 02-07-2012, 06:03 PM

Lol. your telling me its a fake but it doesn't sound like you are very sure? >.<

on that serial code which is 3004576 ..........they just swapped the last two digit and fill the amount of digit required with two 0.... it is basically 34567 without being too obvious !

LOL you are still so stuck behind the times when the shaft serial numbers are pre-9999999.

The serial numbers are not even the best indication for authenticity.

Please search for squash_mart on this forum.

O.o are you saying he is wrong Blitzzards?

Just search for "squash_mart" on this forum. The evidence and experiences of countless others speak more.

I would rather have you guys look at my racket to see its authencity though rather than just solely by knowing the buyer because I didn't buy it directly from his shop on ebay if that is fine with you. Thanks.
