based on shaft serials and cone code, it's a FAKE racket
based on picture inspection, I can confirm that this is definitely a fake racket

OK, thanks!
Could you please specify what makes this a fake?

I'm tired to explain it every single time

I will copy paste it

cone code is date when the racket being made
DD MM Y X and 2 code of distribution

shaft serial: 7641636
cone code : 111024JP

based on cone code means:
this racket was made by day 11, october 2012 or 2002 for jp distribution
jp is japan, why it is in sweden?
then there is no way it is 2002 because arcsaber 7 did not exist back then
if it's 2012, this racket must be from future because we are no in april 2012

the grip from the photo is def fake. yonex racket does not come with string

first of all, there is no PBSI logo
second, the bag looks cheap
third, even though it is SP coded, there is no SP print on the shaft

lastly and the most fundamental one:
the cone code makes no sense
cone code is the date that racket being produced
it is DD MM Y X CC
D: day
M: month
Y: year (yes only 1 number)
X: batch or revision number
CC: 2 area code

so, let's break down that racket cone code:
18 69 5 9 SP
so, this racket is produced day 18, month 69, 2005 for SP distribution
yup, there is no such thing as month 69.. it makes no sense, so we know it is a fake racket
