    By just looking at the price and the seller locations. A lot of high end yonex rackets are being offer on ebay with a ridiculous buy it now price. Maybe one or two might be legit but its rare to find a legit high end yonex racket on ebay.

    Well, i guess not 99% chicha, but mostly yes. I found several yonex rackets in ebay that i believe it's authentic (because there is warranty in it). Nevertheless, i suppose this racket is fake cuz the seller doesn't put word "genuine" or "authentic" to the item.

    If you are gonna buy a yonex racket, esp a high end one, do try to see the
    actual racket then confirm if it is real.

    Otherwise, buying from a badminton central member could be another choice.

    yeah, you're right. Buying racket is not only about the money, because im gonna use it for years.

    Anyway, do you know who sell genuine yonex rackets in badminton central for a good price?

    Fakes aren't allowed to be sold at BC. As well, we have the resources and people to tell if somebody is offering a fake, so you are pretty much protected here. Most prices are very good, so be on the look out for good deals.

    I personally think the numbers on the cone code .. they are made at the same time. Looking carefully at the numbers on the left, it shows a different number.

    number on the cone might be the same, because that the BATCH number for manufacturing date ........

    I do not know for JP code, but for SP code, normally has hologram sticker ......
