    If Ants hasn't said anything then it is most likely fake.

    There are already at least two fake Arc 9's on UK's eBay at the moment, so if you want one now...

    Yonex will almost certainly bring more Arcsabers out eventually, since the existing and previous YY lines have around 7-10 rackets each. If I were them I would bring the Arc 12 out next, so that everybody who bought the 10 just to have the top-of-the-range racket will have to get the 12:p.

    If you're willing to go down a digit, try the ArcSaber 8 :D

    If you look hard enough on online trading sites, you should be able to find an ArcSaber in every digit possible :rolleyes:

    If I were you, I'd wait for official word from Yonex :)

    Quite right. I've seen quite a few Arc Sabers in Ebay and no doubt they are fakes. I heard the next Arc Saber from Yonex is probably Arc Saber 9, and it's going to be Purple :confused:. If this were true then utterly OMG :crying:.

    Guess the only way is to wait and see what Yonex says

    8 is always a good number, especially among the chinese.
    i'd bet money that the arc 8 will make an appearance sooner or later.

    nah, too late for that now.
    that's the opening ceremony of the games, isn't it?
    i'm guessing if yonex does launch the racquet then, it might be a little overshadowed, just a little though.

    don't see a reason to come out of a arc saber 9 ?

    no marketing value ....


    Arc saber 10 limited might be next on yonex list ...

    There's no point to come out ARCH 9.
    People who has Arch 10 may not buy this lower series.
    And what will be different with Arch 7.

    They're supposed to come out with a head-heavier version of the Arc 10, so I would assume it could be possible. Of course, I would agree that the number would be higher, assuming they use similar technologies. People still choose the AT 700 over the AT 900 Power.

    Actually the new Arc 9 will be Metallic Blue. And you can expect the NS7700 new colour to come in around October 08 too.

    Why ask if you knew it is going to be released? How do you know?

    Someone told me this obviously. Mr. Yoneyama did not ring me up.
