unfortunately, the serial number seems too low for the zslash but someone else can probably confirm. I'd suggest that you contact yonex japan to get official confirmation then start a paypal dispute.
http://www.badmintoncentral.com/forums/showthread.php/13655 yes, the shaft serial is too low. at USD149, it is expensive fake.
yup, definitely fake it is become a trend nowadays those fake shaft serials and cone code you are the 14th victim of fake racket with shaft serial and cone code like this check my thread: (especially post 3, I give in detail explanation why it is fake) http://www.badmintoncentral.com/forums/showthread.php/94521-New-Fake-Yonex-Rackets-Phenomenon
Why contact Yonex Japan, when Yonex Australia is closer . Yes. Why contact Yonex Japan, when Yonex Australia is closer to the Australian BCer. .
sorry, was thinking fake jp code so contact japan but I'm sure ot doesn't matter which office you contact
dear all ,i am new to this site .i have just bought 2 yonex rackets and wonder if they are genuine.they dont look like original ones however i am posting their serial and code numbers so that the enlightened ones can confirm my belief 1.Yonex arcsaber z slash serial no:7606791 cone no:140102CH 2.Armotec serial no:7645909 cone no:241102SP thanks to let me know asap
there is a sticky thread specifically for this, please go there, and post the information as requestd in the first post. http://www.badmintoncentral.com/for...rs-Here-(No-eBay-Enquiries)-Read-Post-1-First!
agreed they are both fake but if he's actually bought them then it does belong there (I thought as long as you own it you could post there). thought the ebay thread is for shopping inquiries.
Can anybody help me identify if this is fake? is it worth it? http://cgi.ebay.com/Yonex-ArcSaber-...ltDomain_0&hash=item3f0745c060#ht_1622wt_1141
based on price? it's a joke 100% fake another evidence is that the racket comes with oval tag which a big red warning as Yonex racket do not come with tag
Why even bother to ask ... item location: Toronto ; shipping time: 9-15 business days ... That last part is not entirely true but I'm not going to go into detail about it in public since it's easy to adjust for fake sellers ...
Even though its fake, I have some money to use. and will it be a good bakcup racket? Are the fakes still durable/ up to par w/ the real yonex ones? Im planning to string it not too high maybe about 23-24 lbs.
yeah I know what you mean, that's why I put oval for durability at 23-24lbs? yes they can take it but DO NOT think that it would play like a real Yonex I read it in BC someone post about fake racket, bad grommets, bad handle, etc I would not want that as my back up racket
We hear so much about the equipment/rackets used . It's strange isn't it? Some are happy with a fake racket, some are not. Seriously speaking, our Badminton is an activity; but we hear so much about the equipment/rackets used. .
