    Depends on how well you know the owner and how good your bargaining skill is. I just got mp100 for $3500NT and mp88 for $3000NT. I had a quote of $3500NT for mp99 as well but they were out of stock. Hope these prices help.

    MP99

    Hi guys.

    My father, who lives in Taiwan, has just bought me two MP99s for this year's university badminton season and all for a price of only 6000 NT dollars. They even gave me a choice as to which strings I wanted on them but I only chose the BG65 since it is more durable. Anyway, the point is, go to an official Yonex retailer in Taiwan, haggle with the owner, and you will get your rackets cheap. Oh did I mention that I also got three free grips?

    Hey F-Man, that's a pretty good deal you got there. Yeah haggling definitely helps and connection works wonders. The three racquets I got were MP88, MP100, and a Victor Fung 2000 (all strung w/ BG-68Ti), w/ a combined total of $7500NT (~$200USD), w/ free 5-racquet victor carrying bag, 1 dozen over-grap, 6 victor towel grip, and 3 packs of BG-68Ti for replacement.
