    Description

    1. The racket is 100% brand new and genuine Yonex product with plastic wrapped on the handle. :eek:

    2. The racket is stocked directly from the authorized Yonex dealer. :eek:

    3. We give you more Yonex string models for free! The racket is not pre-strung, and I will string the racket for you according to your choice.

    4.I gaurantee my racket authenticity :eek:

    Not convinced, Am surprised at the seller persistence of it being genuine.

    if you look further, he wrote :

    III. Can I know the serial number of the particular racket


    that I'm bidding on?

    No, because I do not know which racket that I'll be sending to you.

    also the NS7000 looks fake to me...

    If their items are the same as their pictures, then I will say they are fakes.
    There is no MP grommets at the holes close to the T-joint.

    How much is 50 SGD ? $50 ? or less ? I am surprised he can take paypal payments.

    Having said that I recently bought from a chinese seller who claimed he can take paypal but couldn't in the end ! I had to pay via western union ! £12 ($23) charges just to send £30 !!!

    It's funny that this chinese seller is targeting singapore. i.e. rich country like UK, US and europe.

    I'd say the seller is full of s**t, heres some reasons i can tell its a dodgy fake

    1. No MP grommet next to T-joint
    2. look closely at the handle wrap is loose, not a shrink wrap
    3. look closely at the spec sticker, its silver just like many other fakes

    the writing on the shaft looks crap as well, that could be the quality of the photo tho..

    Actually

    Actually, what pissed me off is that the seller INSISTS that his product is genuine and looks like he is ready to challenge anyone who doubts it :)

    There are many fake sellers around, but they will not tell u to ur face that their product is a genuine one coz they know well it is not.
