Thanks in advance.

racket model: Yonex Nanospeed 9900
shaft serial: 7897781
cone code : 151209CH
source : local ad
price : $175 CDN$

expensive fake/counterfeit .....

if "0" is 2000, then serial number is too high
if "0" is 2010, then serial number is too low.

151209CH = 15 Dec 2010 - China
now still MAY 2010, how come you get the DEC 2010 production ???

Thanks for the analysis. At first glance I took the 09 as 2009...then found and rechecked the serial number formula DDMMYxCC and it seems you're right. Oh well, guess I'll see what the local Pro Shop offers...it's only $$$ - I'll skip breakfast for a year to make it up.

Third time lucky. Both look alright however the second one needs some further inspection based on this: http://www.badmintoncentral.com/foru...ostcount=10892

Would probably be best if you took some pictures and open a thread in the identify fake section or add to an existing NS9000 thread.

Same as above 5th digit: 1 = either 2001 or 2011 so it's either from the future or it time-travelled back in time. Besides at that price do you even have to ask??

Haha! I've got a lot to learn!

The price is actually not retail but trade price to supplier. Does that make a difference or this type of racket would not be available at that amount for trade?

Cheers

Fake

. Serial number 767**** is made around May 2008, not 07-10-2009 (07109).
