For some people,includes me,stocking shuttlecocks is a must.I can use like avg 3-4 shuttles/session.Not too many,since others will also distribute the shuttles.A dozen of shuttles wont last too long for me,since i play this game frequently.Almost everyday.So,it's neccesary for me to stock them. How about u?How many stocks of shuttles do u have now?How much is the avg price for a doz?How many shuttles would u spend per session? Mine,about 8 doz rite now.Not that much though.. My avg price for a doz is around 5USD I would spend about 3-4 shuttles/session. How about u?
lucky you! China has one of the cheapest market for shuttles in the world. Usually I will keep around 2 tubes, avg 15USD per doz. Each session i will use 4-5 shuttles, and i play 2x a week
my club has 3 courts. we play for 3 hours and use average 2 tubes. i always bring with me 4 tubes just incase. i stock about 25 tubes at home. the shuttles are "an yu" red's. similar to yang yang. i pay about $16.20 USD.
I'll normally have atleast two tubes of feathers in stock at home. Being a student, sometimes I find myself with no feathers for a while and being forced to use plastic.
For members such as ants who purchases bulk, where do you purchase from? Also how much do you normally save versus buying 1 tube at a time?
I just have 2 tubes in my bag. I use an average of 3 shuttles when I play with my friends since they also shell out shuttles of their own. However I only use 1 when I go to other courts that have "Queing."
I use plastics mainly and therefore suffer lower attrition. I probably have 2 dozen plastics and half a dozen goose in stock most of the time. Purchase price per dozen tends to be about £10 +p&p.
1) I have over a thousand of tubes of Chao Pai shuttles in stock. 2) Average price depends on the grade: $12-$20/tube. 3) Depends how many hours and who I play against. So anywhere from 2 - 24 shuttles.
LOL...u sell them rite?Hehe..i mean,how many do u have personally..that u'd use to play. 24 shuttles all by urself??didn't ur opponent or partner distribute some??
Since its for personal use.. i either buy it from normal shops or directly from the supplier. How much do i save? Well it really depends.. i save up from 5%-20%. I dont buy more than 200 tubes coz the shuttles might dry up if i keep too long. And i usually buy in bulk if that batch of shuttlecocks is good. Its not easy to get good shuttlecocks nowadays. And i dont only buy one brand, i buy few brands provided that batch meet my quality and expectation. All the shuttlecocks that i buy/use is the highest grade.
Sure it's easy, just get one of the following and I'm confident you'll be OK with it: +Aeroplane EG1130 Black Label +Chao Pai Red +Chao Pai Purple +MMOA Super Select MS-950 +MMOA Ultra Select +RSL Tourney Classic +Tai Lai 001 +Yang Yang 300B +Yonex AS40 +Yonex AS50 +Yonex F90 And if the above do not satisfy you, then you are just too picky.
The one i got is the RSL Tourney Classic,YangYang300B,Proace Masterpiece,AS40,AS50 and F90. MMoa not so good. The rest you mentioned not too bad. Have not tried Tai Lai though..
lol... I have 12 full tubes: 4 proace championship, 6 proace tournament and 2 RSL tourney classic. I'm looking to get another 4 tubes of king 707.
