This one I'm actually not sure about, it look pretty genuine to me. The seller says the cone code is 012812AS. Here's a link to some pictures of the racquet. http://calgary.kijiji.ca/c-ViewAdLargeImage?AdId=377528352
Can anyone confirm? I managed to talk it down to 200CAD (Roughly 203 USD). The Code format does not follow the DDMM, seeing as how it's 0128, there's no 28 month. But the grip looks real. Are there Taufik Hidayat ArcSaber's made in AS anyways? All the websites I seen advertise the rarity of it being only 200 made in United states. Also, from a post I read on this forum, it says that the distribution code of AS is to be trusted and is safe. I am very conflicted to the authenticity of this racket.
are you sure the code is 012812AS? if yes then it is a fake racket ask the seller again about the cone code
serial is legit however anyone can have it laser in as a legit serial with the code region id ask for pictures as well and the butt cap logo. you'd need to see the paint job yourself etc. other than that if you're just asking about the coded part it looks good.
