So how much does the Chao Pai Red cost? does it get cheaper with bulk purchase or something?

You can get these shuttlecocks locally in Singapore. Buy some and try them out to feel the differences. Get the right one for your group..
1) Sea Lion
2) Chao Pai
3) SwordFish

My group (now playing in Central region on Sundays) is currently using Chao Pai Red as we feel it can last approximately 1.5~2 games (15pt doubles) per shuttlecock, depending on how gentle we hit the birdie. Moreover, one of our newer high-int players quoted (SMSed) that he "find d shuttle better than many othr brands, it has smooth flight n easier to control. Gd value for moni."

rsl tourney classic are the best, definitely.

it's got good price and very very good quality - rsl shuttles are used at the thomas cup

mm. what shuttles do they use in beijing olympics?

Give the seller a call. I bought it at SGD$27 when he first imported this in. You might get it a dollar less or more if buy in bulk.

I am trying to come out with a new goose feather shuttlecock with quality equal to Aeroplane's Black label. To cut down cost, the tube will have no labelling and each shuttle will have no sticker on the inside top of the base. Each tube of 12 shuttles will cost about US$14 to US$15. Do you think this is a fair price?

**hoodlum** · 08-20-2008, 12:00 PM

Hmm $US 14 - $15 might be hard to appeal to people at first cos theres no label and all.. loses out on packaging and trustworthiness.. but if like u said quality comparable to Aeroplane EG1130 then its definitely worth the price and they will come back for more surely. just my humble opinion..

Are you going to make the shuttlecocks by yourself?

No, I don't own any shuttlecock factories or goose farms. I am into this not in a strictly commercial basis but to share some of "the best bang for the buck" with others who are within reasonable reach. I have had no problem with unlabelled and also unsealed tubes so far, but on two lower grades that are comparable to RSL No. 1 Tourney which I sell for 2/3 the price. The only problem is that they insist on taking delivery from me personally, which can be a hassle.

I can't believe nobody has suggested Aeroplane Black Labels G1101. I have never used such a good shuttle. They just don't want to break!
