Arcsaber 10 vs Arcsaber 008

I'd say save your money, the Arc10 is not worth the money. I've got two (which I got cheaply), original and PG version and although to me they are not playable, I'm a collector so will keep them in my collection.

If you've tried the 008 and think its good, then that's the obvious choice. No point getting a racquet that doesn't compliment your game.

 

the best way is to find any of your friend who has arcsaber 10 and test it yourself....
because what we feel maybe different than yours.....
but from my experience, there is difference between lower-end racket and higher-end racket, at least a bit.....
i used VT9 before i get VT70....
what i feel is just less vibration when im using VT70 and i feel my swing a bit faster(maybe because of the slim shaft)....
anyway, it's better to test it yourself...
about arcsaber 10 2012 edition, i think it's the same with arcsaber 10, just different paint design and colour....

 

I think it is different, people said Arcsaber 10 is slightly head heavy
while arcsaber 008 is slightly head light

 

why dont you try voltric range??
like VT7, just slightly head heavy but easy to swing....

 

arcsaber 008 is not slightly headlight racket. it is slightly abit head heavy like arc10. can go try and swing both racket in game, then you will know both actually very close feeling.

 

i used to own arcsaber 008t. love it and smash hard.

 

so you are implying that arcsaber 008 would be a good cheap replacement for arcsaber 10?
those people who bought arcsaber 10 must be very unlucky then, they can get a racket with similar feel of arcsaber 10 for 1/2 price of it

 

actually it's 1/4 of the price....

 

yup it is 1/4 in Malaysia (since they mark up the price of the high end racket)
it is only half the price in UK though

 

wow, those in UK very lucky to get high end racket by just double the price.....
so far, the most expensive yonex rackets in Malaysia is Arc ZS and AT900P and AT900T which are RM 929.00(retail price).....
Arc 008 just around RM 200.....
very large difference.....

 

I talked to one of BC member from Malaysia and I know the price in Malaysia is outrageous
the most expensive racket in UK (after the 20%-22.5% tax!) is VT Z-force limited edition: RM 872.4
while z-slash is RM 762.5
and AT900P for RM 606 (no one wants an old racket like AT900P)

but in UK, usually the arcsaber 008 is around RM 293 (293 and 606 so only half of it)

 

that's quite expensive for a lower end racket like Arcsaber 008.....
you can get Arcsaber 009dx with that price(retail price for Arcsaber 009dx is RM 299) but with discount it should be lower.....
but the good thing is high end racket is cheaper....
except for VTZF Ltd, in Malaysia the retail price is RM 849, with discount maybe you can get around RM 700.....

 

I feel lucky after reading the aforementioned pricing in your country

the pricing in my city is a 10%-20% cheaper compare to the aforementioned pricing.

 

Hi there, Malaysia still cheaper. You could get the racket after 30 to 30% off at Authorized Yonex Distributor. Z Force Limited is just rm590 with string of your choice and free selected grip ;p

 

which store sells that cheap??
the cheapest i.ve ever seen is RM599 for normal VTZF....
