first thing first, this thread is not for en ebay enquiry
second, have you bought the racket?

[ski98020]

Somebody won the bid for me...so yes...bought it!

check the cone code again
if same, that means it's a fake

[ski98020]

check the cone code again
if same, that means it's a fake

Unfortunately, the cone code is again 201005JP...how do you know its fake?

first, You need to know there are two kind of number in Yonex rackets

Shaft serial is one of a kind serial number for each yonex racket that made in Japan (Yonex made in Taiwan has different way to number their racket)
That serial number shows you this is racket number XXX that yonex produce

Cone code is the date when they make the racket (and for which area this racket for):
It is based on DDMMYX(and 2 letter code area)
D: day
M: month
Y: year

racket model: Yonex Z-Slash Taufik Hidayat Edition
shaft serial: 9049012
cone code : 201005JP
price : US$100

your shaft serial is too low for a racket that produced October 2010

also you need to know that JP code racket is pretty expensive
an arcsaber z-slash usually around US $265
$100 is too low (I'm sure a genuine seller would put high reserve price)

first, You need to know ...

Thanks for your help... do you think it is necessary for me to tear down the grip and check the code on the wood?

[Avenger]

Thanks for your help... do you think it is necessary for me to tear down the grip and check the code on the wood?

no, it is unnecessary cone code and shaft serial is more than enough to prove it

does it come with this bag?

[demolidor]

Thanks for your help... do you think it is necessary for me to tear down the grip and check the code on the wood?

Nope . With the odd exception there are no auctions for genuine Yonex rackets on eBay. If you want something cheap buy a different brand or a midrange model ...

[ski98020]

Thanks avenger and demolidor!
I bought it from big.show414 in ebay.
It doesn't come with the bag but with another cloth bag.
As shown here,

oh yeah, that's 1000% fake
I remember the seller from this thread:
http://www.badmintoncentral.com/foru...=1#post1670509

you will not get a box when you buy a Yonex racket
JP racket should not come with sunrise sticker (the rectangular sticker)
the soft cloth bag also wrong

and lastly, Lin Dan is not with Yonex anymore, Lin Dan is now with Li Ning

Hi Avenger, thanks for your help.
I think I have to file a dispute to ebay then. Anyone with such an experience?

yup, many people, it's not only you

btw, there is no such thing as "grade / class" in Yonex racket
class G is genuine? this seller sprouting non-sense

Both ebay enquiries and one of them is not an official dealer for sure but both have been reliable so far. And based on these numbers they should be just fine .
