DO NOT GO TO BROWNS SPORTS FOR YOUR RESTRING NEEDS. i went to them today. ask them to restring my racket with bg 80. i also told them 1 of my grommets is missings and needs to be replaced. they happily agreed to my request. when i went and picked up my racket i see they failed to replace my grommet so the string may snap any minute. they also twisted my racket face frame due to uneven tension. so tommorow im going back there and getting my money back. any1 can provide me with good arguments? the point of the story is BROWNS SPORTS = noob stringers
well ive been thinking, what exactly caused the warping of the racket head? and also do you think they would restring with grommet for free?
not all noob stringers are bad. brown is not a new store. this is a case of stringer dont give a ^^^^.
They strign in a hole without a grommet? Thats just................retarded. I have nothing better to say than to go somewhere else.
how can they not notice a missing grommet while stringing? go demand a restring and replacement of the grommet.
bonjour the stringer is a novice and also a NUL!tthey must refund you! go to YO'S first markham next time! MING
i believe browns is one of the few authorized yonex stringer shop in Toronto.. so supposingly they should be atleast decent.. maybe its just a bad case.. but nehow.. i would trust yo's a lot more as i've been dealing with him long enough to know my rackets r in good hand
Wow, you live in paris and you know what is happening in Canada? Impressive. And yes, Yo's is very good. so is Lee's and Mandarin. Both guy and girl at Yo's are great stringers, as they do it for a profession. Same goes to Lee's and Mandarin, as they string often for their own players.
guess what, i went to browns this afternoon demending a restring with grommet. they refuse to do so. they also blame the warping of the racket on my part. saying i could have purposely done it. what kind of bs service is this. this ordeal costs me 45 CND and i get this crap. lesson for all, take a pic of your racket from all angles before giving to stringer.
I know YO'S not so far aways from richmond hill (my cousin's place) I came 4 or 5 time to toronto and in morning I go to progress av missisaga ,tawainess association to play badminton or in some dropp in! I am not a good player but I love to play! at norht of richmond hill eight years ago my cousin told me we go to play with some friends who rent a school on friday night,this night was the fisrt time ,I was so bad during 2-3days ,but I love badminton!! MING
Brown's is a pathetic place with pathetic people running it. Why didn't you complain about the racquet when you got it? Anyways, I suggest you seek legal advice on how to deal with this, you just can't talk or reason to the owners there, they're asses, so you got to deal with this matter in a different way.
the thing, i parked my car on the street nearby. so i had to hurry back before it gets towed. he handed me the racket in the bag so i just took the bag and hurried back to my car and drove off.
I see, well take pics of it now, and consult someone on this matter...this is truly sad for an 'experienced' stringer...
yah.. i'd say thats a good idea.. as they r authorzied by Yonex so most likely complaining to Yonex might get u somewhere worth a shot here's the email for yonex canada Yonex Customer Service [customerservice@yonexcanada.com]
Lol. Browns is expensive for stringing. My last few experience there wasn't too bad though. They stringed my racquet pretty good. When you string, maybe you should have waited for it for the same day. Maybe he just forgot to put the grommet in. Oh well. So what are you going to do now? You should have been fierce and yelled at them.
I once got my racquet strung at Brown's and they made a small crack on the racquet head, probably with a clamp or something. I couldn't do anything about it because it wasn't me who took it in for stringing. That was probably the worst $40 I've ever spent on badminton.
