Buying from e78.com.hk

[Avenger]

You really haven't been getting the full "Eric experience" then He has a RIDICULOUS amount of stuff available to him not only from the brands he carries but also from the factory. A lot of the things are not available on his eBay listing because he's not allowed to put it on the web. You just have to ask.

I do agree that e78 has more listed on their site which I guess makes it easier to find. With Eric you have to know where to look / how to ask to get what you want. However I disagree with your blanket statement that e78 is cheaper in everything; again, email Eric and you'll be surprised. The eBay prices are not always the same as if you ask him to give you a quote. I don't think your advice to always go to e78 if you want cheaper price, with the only drawback being the harder communication, is correct.

I'm not trying to bash e78 or be biased toward Eric at all - e78 is a great store. I merely dislike spreading misinformation. Moral of the story is to be a smart shopper and compare prices at multiple places, not just buy from one place thinking that it's cheaper in everything when there could be better prices elsewhere

well, like I said, based on his Ebay listing
I know he got so much stuff if you PM him (esp V brand related)

and I also said "if you know what you are looking for"

E78 is nice place to browse and see, he got absurd amount of product that you rarely see else where (such as woven racket without brand, wrist strengthener, etc)

I don't know about the price of E78 VS Eric's price, so you might be right on this one
however, E78 is visible and their price is already the best you could get (even if you go to their store, they will give the same price), some people don't like the hassle asking a seller about a product or quoted price

I just ordered 2 things from him the other night, other than the language barrier everything went swell and my package is on the way.

Hey guys,

Is slow reply after you purchased items from e78 a normal thing? I sent them a message or two about some shuttlecocks and transferred the money through Paypal. But I haven't got a reponse for the last 2 days...this normal?

I think so, there are so many people complained about it, and at the end they got their items

[jackay]

Interesting enough after I posted the reply an hour later I got my tracking numbers. Yeah!!! I guess I will be ordering again from mr.chan. Hopefully I receive the shuttlecocks soon

does anyone know if the yonex racquets from e78 comes with free cover?

[jackay]

Generally they ship the cover with the racket. Mybadmintonstore does. I can't see why mr.chan won't do the same. Cause all yonex rackets comes with a cover afaik, unless you specificly said you dont want them.

Send a message on their facebook page to check. Usually replies pretty quickly.

if you buy a racket from him with the cover, it only adds weight to the package and increase the shipping costs you pay. you can ask him to minus the cover and sometimes he'll deduct a few tens HK$ off the racket price.

[James.Foo]

hm.... I wanted to ask, if i remember correctly in page 8/9 there is a comment that says that Mr.Chan does not include the credit charge and the shipping fee......then by comparison, is Mr.Chan's price is cheaper or the Mybadminton store(which I heard is also quite a good store) is cheaper?

P.S Or even yet, can compare the prices between Mybadminton store,ERIC, and Mr.Chan

[R20190]

I've been looking to buy an ArcSaber 8DX from e78 recently, whilst the unit price is very good compared to the UK, the cost of shipping and the 6% fee on top almost cancels out any saving I would have made... so I guess I will have to wait for someone to go back to HK!

Hi all.
Checked Sohobuy and found Kason rackets (probably not updated in a while, haven't seen the c7 nor f9),
tried to check E78 but even with google translating the entire website I'm having difficulty finding out if Mr. Chan sells Kason.
Anybody knows?
I can assume if he sells kason, it's totally legit, right?
Thanks,
Leo

Hi Sealman, thanks for the link.
I'm going through some translation right now.
I guess it means it's also legit.
I found the F9, it's priced 1480. do you happen to know if it's in Hong Kong Dollars?
Thanks.
I also emailed Mr. Chan about it, hopefully he'll have a nice price and a nice shipping price for me to Israel.

you can get hold of Mr Chan easier thru Facebook, just search for E78.

Thanks Alana,
Also added him as a friend. maybe that way I could ask for a special "friend" price...
