    What do you think is a rare or good (discontinued) racket for collection? If possible, pls upload some photos. My job allows me to travel a lot, and so far I had success finding discontinued items like old Ti10, AT700 and Carbonex 21 (YOM 1998). Didn't buy the Carbonex 21 though since I don't know if this counts as a good racket to collect.

    Muscle Power 77 is a good racquet.
    it's also discontinued which is a disappointment.

    Is this a rare racket too? I think it's similar to Ar Dan's thread a while ago but mine has no serial number on the shaft and cone.

    I've got exactly the same racquet and model as yours. I'm quite sure they're not too common - I'm not too sure if it's rare though. Mine doesn't have the serial number on the shaft either (according to the serial numbering facts, it's not a recent model).

    My father told me to be extra careful with that racquet when I first used it, but he hasn't given me any more information about it unfortunately.

    Wait a minute...I think I've got a serial number on the cone covered by the gold sticker. What the heck...I've already bought it!

    go to the store and buy a AT900P in 3UG5... someday when this racquet is discontinued and I can't find any new ones, I will gladly buy it off you at "rare" prices :) It's lame that you still can't get this grip size in north america.
