    Hi there,

    I found the top Kason racket of all, the TSF 300 A/D on e-bay for only 69,99 british pounds. Ans i want this racket very much! However, i still hear often very much stories that all badmintonrackets from e-bay are fake, and i want to know if i am right because i have strange feelings if the thermobag on the picture is real and if the material stuff of the racket can break fast or if its just like the real kason racket.

    here is the site where u can find it:

    http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/KASON-Badmint...id=p4634.c0.m14.l1262&_trkparms=|293:2|294:30

    please help me out of this, cuz i have serious doubts, maybe some expert can help me?

    thanx a lot,

    Robin

    I think that the person selling it , is selling it from a shop.

    And that is an official legit seller from Kason.

    Like a representative form Kason who is just selling in the UK?

    I would say it is real , but you can email Kason and ask them for clarification?

    It's the same place as "Right Racquets" (http://www.kasonracquet.co.uk/), and I'm pretty sure it's legit - I've bought from them before and been very satisfied.

    I wouldn't pay too much attention to the photograph - it's just a standard stock image. If you use google image search you'll see lots of other sites use the exact same picture.

    This is a legit. seller. I bought a TSF300D (the hot red one :))from him a couple of months ago, plus a few shirts. The racket is fantastic and sooooooo beautiful :cool:.

    It is indeed the same guy who operates the right-racquets internet shop, as previously mentioned. It's just easier to buy through his ebay site. Also, for your peace of mind, you can pay him via Paypal, which covers your purchase in case of problems. The service from the guy is very professional and FAST. I highly recommend.

    Oh, and remember, the 69.99 GBP price can be negotiated by 'making him an offer' (see his website). I suspect you can reach agreement at around 60 quid. :D:D:D

    Go buy this racket now ! I assure you you won't regret.

    thanx for ur help roy b, and everyone else! but unfortunatly i see that the shop is in Derby(England) and that it only send their products to United States, United Kingdom, Scotland, and France i think... but not The Netherlands:crying: and besides that, u can only pay with paypal, mastercard or visa whick i don't have! so i am affraid it is going to be impossible. And i dont know people who have a visa or mastercard or paypal

    I don't see any reason why they wouldn't ship to The Netherlands, provided you're willing to cover the cost of postage.
    Unfortunately, I don't think it would be cheap - I'd guess probably around £30.
    Is that still a good buy?

    If you are interested, then it's definitely worth emailing them to ask.
    You could easily set up a PayPal account in a few minutes.

    thanx for the help Sketchy, i have now made a paypal acount and in 5 till 7 days they put the money on my account. but really see for urself:

    Item number:160310257033Item location:Derby, Derbyshire, United KingdomPost to:United Kingdom, United States, Canada, Ireland, France

    pfff it is really rediculous:confused: so if i really have to pay that much for shipping, they can keep the racket.

    It might not be that much - I'm just guessing. It's going to be more than £4.99 though.
    You really should just email them and ask: kason_racquets@yahoo.co.uk

    I can't see shipping being anything LIKE £30 - the Ti-10 I'll be getting from the Far East over summer will get here (UK) for $20! Go with Roy on this one - he's the Kason afficianado;)

    Well, it is more expensive sending stuff *from* the UK. According to their website, it would be about £23 by ParcelForce (it's based on volume not weight), but maybe there are cheaper ways.
    Like I said, the best thing is just to email the seller and ask :)

    Hey Mark :),

    Glad you finally reached a decision on the new racket. Hope the Ti10 gives you pleasure.

    Yep, I'll keep pushing the Kasons :). More people should give these excellent rackets a try.

    Regards.

    Hello Robin,

    Yes, we can ship to the Netherlands. Did you receive the invoice you requested? When I sent that invoice to you, I didn't realised that you are from the Nethlerands, so I put the UK postage 4.99 pounds for you. I don't know how much it will cost yet, but since I have already given you 4.99 for postage, you can still have this price.

    Regards

    Ying Hong
    Kason UK

    This is the mail he send back, guess 4,99 pounds shipping is reasonable?

    thanx roy:D yes, and i think the price of the racket(it costs me like 75 euro's i think, maybe a bit more) and when i see that all other international shops on the internet are asking a higher price, i think i am now very lucky.

    I want to have the TSF 300 A, because i am more like a attacking player, i always want to find a way to take over the attack however that doesn't work always haha:p

    As a 300D man (I'm no spring-chicken anymore, and rely on guile rather than power !!) I'm most interested in hearing how you find the 300A. Maybe i'll buy one in the future, when i'm feeling like I need more power to blow my opponent away :cool:. Please give us a little review when you have tested it. :)

    In future, a few of us on the forum can be 'the Kason Fans' and tell everybody here how great these rackets are :) ......... or should we keep it our secret ???? :cool::cool::cool:.

    Keep us all informed of your findings.

    The person from Kason was really nice!
    And offering you £4.99 was a bargain!
    I will look to buy from Kason in the future :).

    I hope you have a good expierience with your racket - and I will be looking forward to a review , perhaps?
