Second hand Voltric 70 - fake or genuine?

[mbaddy]

Hi guys,

Trying to buy a present for someone, and came across a second hand Yonex Voltric 70 for $90 AUD, of course a new one is about double the price.

Serial: Cone: 011202AS, Shaft: 9797419

Thinking it might be a fake, and they are claiming it's second hand so the price doesn't throw you off?? Apparently there is no damage, cracks etc, in near new condition.

Opinions?

Thanks

If you doubt, best don't buy .... not worth the uneasy feeling .... IMHO

It's a sale through facebook, and now I see also through ebay http:// http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/YONEX-Voltric-70-Badminton-Racket-Genuine-Strung-with-BG80-26lbs-/271107075530?pt=AU_Badminton&hash=item3f1f3dadca&_ uhb=1#ht_3886wt_1165

I could drive to their premises and check it out, but I wouldn't really be able to tell as I haven't used a Voltric before, or come across any fakes. I was going to buy it as an Xmas gift, but obviously can't afford a new one.

nah, I don't think it is a fake racket
AS (australia code) is one of the safest code around
however, where are you come from? you should get suspicious if you are not from Australia and get an AS code (ask the seller where did he buy it)

I am from Aust. I saw it on facebook, but they are selling it on ebay too.
