    any objection to having a "market place" forum where we can have "for sale" posts, and "where to buy Ti-10 for really cheap" posts?

    i suggested that because i think we have enough postings in the Equipment Forum to split up these category of posts into their own forum, and then we can leave the Equipment Forum to discuss the more intricates of our badminton toys.

    thanks for comments and suggestions.

    more forums... well, i am just following the philosophy, "if you build it, they will come." :)


    too much procrastination. need to work harder and spend more time playing (instead of talking) badminton..

    Good idea, Kwun.

    Another proposed change: in the Equipment Reviews section, could you please add, at the end of each list of models within a particular brand, the extra category "Miscellaneous Models" so that if someone tries a new or obscure model, we can still see reviews of it?

    Also, at the end of the reviews section, could you add a new manufacturer category "Miscellaneous Brands" so that we can see reviews of less common brands of racquets such as Forza, Karakal, Fischer, Pro Ace, Monsoon, Slazenger, etc....

    Thanks.

    Kwun, also to add to the review section, can you put photos of all the racquets in each heading. Example, ISO900 heading, going into that link we can see a picture of the racquet. A lot of people haven't seen colour or the specs of the racquet and providing the specs for everyone would be welcomed.

    i think it would be more effective if users go to the manufacturer website directly to view individual racket picture and specs. It would be unfair to kwun to dedicate the time and server resources to attach every racket photos in BC. It's like doing somebody else (big rich companies) marketing for free.

    What we need to do is to creative an international marketplace where people would help each other buy stuff..instead of flying to places just to get it.
