nanospeed 9900 and i cant decide whether its fake or real, please help, serial got damaged after having opened it by accident it is 151092CH, racket was 40 pounds from ebay thanx in advance
1. The serial number looks way too low for the date of manufacture (Oct 15, 2009) 2. Both the serial number and cone code look stamped instead of lazer etched. Lazer etching gives a much neater and smaller number. 3. The price is 1/3 what they retail for.
soz, but i don't want to sound like an a*se-hole but I know because I got a genuine one from an authorize dealer and been playing with it for about a year ,so I do know what my racket look like.
I think he had a valid question. all you stated in the first reply was that it was fake with no explanation of why. Even if all you said was "I have a real one and it looks different" would have been sufficient.
The 4th and 5th picture show the most obvious that its a fake Yonex, really bad plastic string grommets there
Its a fake, sorry mate Some decal wording are the wrong size, wrong font, doesnt look like the serial has been lazer etched and the SN looks to low. A lot of these are sold on ebay with the pretence of being 'a clone made in the same factory' or a 'different grade'. No such thing, all a lie to sell fake junk that will not perform like the real racket.
