    yeap it's well known for falling out!

    Use some really strong superglue to secure the buttcap logo!

    I remove them before they get a chance to fall off. Just about all of them eventually fall off.

    Ditto!

    It also reminds me which rackets are mine when I play and/or in case I misplace them.

    always a pitty, some good double-sided tape, or glue could fix it...I guess sotx likes their logo's shiny:p

    only my dads W13 has it still intact, odly enough..

    Naw, double-sided tape won't work, neither will normal glue. The surface is not tacky enough. You'd need some kind of silicon glue or similar.

    I felt the same way when I first got my racket...I thought that the racket might be a fake because of the sticker falling off. But all is well and the racket performs great.

    use soem sandpaper on the buttcap, or press hard enough..I dunno, one of them is still on there...

    btw, my double-sided tape is the industrial type, large roll, 2inch wide, pretty thin, very sticky:eek:you can also peel open the sticker: it's multi-layered, just stick on the top layer...

    or just leave it as it is, I rarely look at it...

    hmm, super glue works just fine for me. that is until i start picking at it to see if it's really still sticking.
