    http://www.apacsuk.co.uk/ but I noticed they don't have the 1800 on their site. www.apacscanada.com has it.

    Maybe check with the UK site first and see if they can get it. If not order it from the Canada one and have it shipped to the UK.

    You can order one from mybadmintonstore.com, for about 55 quid.

    I own one too, love it! It has effectively relegated my AT900P to the bag/home.

    However, I bought mine in Singapore for 90 SGP, which is about 35 quid. No strings though!

    No racket_sports is highly legit, just he is based in Malaysia, so be wary of the increased shipping charges.

    The VH1700, and the VH1600. There's a new VH2200 coming out, release date TBA. But in terms of similar rackets, you'd be hardpressed to find something that feels similar, because it's "Visible Hollow Shaft" "technology" is highly unique to that line, I don't know of another series that has copied that particular manufacturing process.

    Hi! I'm using VH1600 very loved it. My friend is using the VH1800, he also loved very much. I also wanted to buy on this weekend(VH1800). Actually last week planning to bought it but busy. The price is RM299 (Ringgit Malaysia) + String Yonex BG65 + Karakal PU Grip. It's a nice racquet. Cheers.

    Hi! I am new member here also. I'm using Apacs racquet for about 1year VH1600), loved it so much. The special about this racquet is the shaft(visible). You can see from the grip bottom, and also anti-vibration (help to reduce the reflextion when you smashing or return smaches). This will reduce my arm pain (my experience). Will go and buy another VH1800. Cheers.:D

    AJ racket at Puchong but I don't think they still keep stock for this racket because according to their shop owner that was the last unit I purchased.
