They are authorized Yonex distributors. The price is sensible, because the racket is a made in Taiwan. The racket is difficult to maneuver, stiff racket......
Almost definitely genuine as authorised UK dealer. The serial numbers appear valid, price is right and most fakers, cloners only target top of the range rackets.
Thanks both! Should have spelt it Arcsaber of course. I was confident it was genuine until last week, when a piece of the plastic cover at the base of the shaft, just between the cone code and the shaft serial came off (and I don't mishit THAT badly). I guess then that this is an instance of a quality difference between Yonex rackets produced in Japan and Taiwan.
