    For everyone else reading this- Karakal PU supergrips are essentially the highest quality grips you can buy. So you are getting the best super grip money can buy as I have 2 of these grips on my NS9000X and AT900T and they will last pretty much forever. had mine on for 6-7 months now, no wear, no dis coloration. If I wanted a super grip, this is the grip i would buy. They are also quite rare to get get for some reason.

    I have:
    10xblack
    10xblue
    10xpurple
    6xyellow
    3xgreen
    3xwhite

    As for shipping cost you can check out this site. I live in Edmonton. http://www.canadapost.ca/Personal/Tools/RC/Canada.aspx

    I don't have a scale to measure the weight of each grip but i can imagine that they're pretty light (~20grams/each?).

    But for anyone that's interested pm me the quantity you want and i can check at the post office for the shipping/handling costs.

    They are pretty good. I used to play with yonex but once i tried karakal pu super grip i will never go back to yonex. Karakal grips are cushiony, gets tackier once you start sweating, and are very durable. I wouldn't be selling these but i need the money.

    They are not rare; especially seeing as he has so many. You can easily buy them from any tennis/squash site. They are universal grips.

    Well, I'm a fan of the Karakal PU Touch grips.
    And they've been excruciatingly hard to find :(

    Some of my travails are posted here.

    I apologize if it appeared that I was trying to divert prospective customers. My aim is not to hijack your thread. I did not say that your price was not reasonable. I was merely pointing out that these grips are not as difficult to find as people seem to suggest.

    Also, I will hunt for a site for you Oldhand.

    On the racquets I use most frequently, I change the grip once a fortnight.

    On the others, the grip remains for around two months. Then, regardless of how many times I've used the racquet, the grip will need to be changed. This is because unused PU Touch grips lose their tackiness quite quickly - and also begin to come apart.

    If you do the math, this works out to quite a lot of grips and grip-changing :p

    Hi, I live in Toronto, can you tell me how much would it cost, S&H included, for 3 grips? Also what type of payment method would you take?

    Thank you.
