Badminton Player in Boxhill

**Moggy** · 06-15-2008, 09:23 AM

Actually yes i noticed 1 TW racquet when i was there, which was a MP100, i don't think it'll be illegal to sell a TW coded MP100 in australia in a real store, since its been discontinued years ago lol. I didn't check every racquet, but the few racquets i was looking to buy were all AS coded. I don't think you should be surprised at the shoe costs, the price for a good pair of any sport shoes in australia would be around 200+. I got 2 pairs if SHB100LTD for under 100 each

Btw i'm from HK too

but i've been here almost 2 decades now, makes me feel old

, but i do speak fluent cantonese

Lucky you franco, I asked many shops if they had SHB100 in size 13US and i came with no luck. Even stadium sports didn't have SHB100 in size 13US.

**Moggy** · 06-16-2008, 03:36 AM

Hahaha i have small feet, wearing like size 8-8.5. All my stuff came in today

2 pairs of SHB100LTD, Arc10, AT900T, another MP100, and a MP88 for my sister.

Hey Moggy,

Im quite interested in playing social but Ive kinda lost track of where/when/what day the sessions are. Do you currently have a lot of players?

Im intermediate level, live around the balwyn area.

Let me know if you guys need numbers.

Cheers!

Should be getting a new raq so time to flog off my MP88 =) Franco, help see how much people are willing to bid for it..hehe

**Moggy** · 06-18-2008, 06:20 AM

I offer you 5 bucks, and you better throw in free restringing too

**phandrew** · 06-18-2008, 08:44 AM

You already got 5 rackets franco, don't think you need any more so play with.

**Moggy** · 06-18-2008, 11:06 AM

The MP88 in my photos is my sisters not mine, its strung at low tension for her use, so Shy needs to sell me his for 5 bucks

**E.Cheng** · 06-19-2008, 01:42 AM

Hello Moggy, me and my friend can come this week.. can we come?

**Moggy** · 06-19-2008, 05:18 AM

Yeah sure, might be a little crowded this week hahaha, but at least its for 3 hours instead of 2

**E.Cheng** · 06-20-2008, 02:02 AM

Oh, some of my other friends booked a court from 1:15-2:15 so you get two less people during that time

**ShyYen** · 06-21-2008, 11:22 PM

Hehe, sif $5 bucks Franco, u betta throw your ass into the deal as well..i'll pawn it of to some unsuspecting gal for couple of more bucks

Got the 4U Armortec 900T

Your right, nobody sold the MP88 anymore here, i'm dropping by HK so see where i can grab through transit there. Got some spanking new shoes as well, they have way more cushioning then whats sold in Australia. Where in Hk did your mum buy your badminton stuff in HK Franco? An address would be great!

**Moggy** · 06-22-2008, 05:50 AM

Man just as you're talking about pawning my ass, a really hot chick came to play with us today

Btw i just have to throw in, i still don't think 4U is suitable for you, its too light, i was using my 3U AT900T and Arc10 today, both are great racquets but in terms of max power the MP100 still trumps both. I think i've actually gotten used to my 2U MP100, i couldn't get the same power from the 3U MP100 either. I had breakfast today, so smashes were actually decent

The shop i bought my stuff from is Luxis, i dunno if i'm allowed to post websites, i'll PM to u if u want. The Arc10 has a softer feel although i also used a softer string the NBG98, no where near as rigid as the AT900T or MP100.

BUT YEAH, you can pawn my ass off to some unsuspecting hot chick, and gimme ur racquet for 5 bucks

Stadium sport is still selling the MP88 for $200AUD.

**Moggy** · 06-23-2008, 03:22 AM

I remember they didn't have one to sell for months already, so i wen to check again today, they don't have any left. They do have a MP66, and i like the colour of it

, they also still have an AS coded MP100 and MP99, looks like the last one though.

We're playing at boroondara sports complex this sunday from 11-1 with 5 courts, gimme a PM or leave a msg here if you're interested in coming along.
