Any recommendation of places to buy shuttlecock (feather) online? This will just be for practices. Since this will be my first purchase, what's the price range for shuttlecock normally? It would be good if i can purchase in store in the area. So far i only know badmintonalley.com at sunnyvale. Are they good?
give www.ibuysports.com a try or www.badmintonalley.com. Badmintonalley is pretty reliable but a little more expensive. easy to deal with.
badmintonalley.com isn't a bad choice but like silentheart mentioned a bit pricey. I recently found a seller on eBay, http://cgi.ebay.com/100-GOOSE-feather-badminton-shuttlecock-Eq-Yonex-15_W0QQitemZ220285686554QQcmdZViewItem?hash=item220285686554&_trkparms=72%3A1210|39%3A1|66%3A2|65%3A12|240%3A1318&_trksid=p3911.c0.m14, If you contact him directly and avoid ebay just through paypal, he gives a pretty nice deal, equivalent Yonex AS 15 shuttle is about $11.75/tube and Yonex AS 40 is about $ 15.75/tube, http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dl...220284446480&_sacat=See-All-Categories&_fvi=1, Haven't tried the Eq: Yonex AS 40 yet, too expensive for me. but the Eq: AS 15 has been working quite well for me. I got mine for $11/tube through multiple-purchase. His contact info chichistore@gmail.com.
If you're in the Sacramento area, you can drop by Sac State to play. Ask for Tony, he sells shuttles. He usually buys them in bulk and will give you the price that he paid for. price depends on brand and grade. anywhere from 14-20.
