    This thread is for posting serial numbers of Yonex racquets that YOU own.
    You don't own this racquet... and so, it won't be 'verified'.

    By the way, count yourself fortunate that you don't own this racquet ;)

    Heh, thanks for the help. With so many fakes available, I guess I'll stick the dealers on this equipment.

    Hi.. could you please be a little more specific? What kind of discrepancy do you see and how should I check my code? (I know that it means manufacture date + distribution country, but I'm not sure what else I can tell from it). Thanks!

    Ahh I see.. sorry.. I mistyped it :eek: I typed an extra 1 there.

    Yeah it seems that Stadium_sports is a legit dealer.. at least he claims to be an authorized Yonex dealer and welcomes pick-ups from his local store.

    i'd like to verify that Stadium Sports is a legit dealer, and is actually the main (or rather, the only good) distributor for Yonex and/or badminton in Victoria, Australia (i've called up Yonex and verified before). the shop is owned and run by former Chinese player Xin Jiang and his minions in Box Hill, and i've been there several times to purchase my Yonex equipment. recently, they've begun stocking more brands, notably ProAce, Prince and Head.

    the thing here is, he likes to make a little on the side by opening up a store on eBay as well as his shop front. now i know this is a strictly non-eBay thread and i've been a long time fan of this thread, but i think it'll be a little unfair to users if Stadium Sports authenticity enquiries are put to one side (i've had my purchases from their store front verified by leehsim, but the others who buy off them from eBay for various reasons - e.g. overseas - can't?). can we somehow make known that they are legit (Oldhand)/their Yonex enquiries are checked for good measure (leehsim)?

    there are exceptions to every rule, aren't there?

    :eek:

    On eBay, legitimate racquets are the exception rather than the rule.

    Although members like you are prepared to vouch for certain sellers, that doesn't lend any general credibility to sales of badminton racquets on eBay.

    This also explains why a separate thread was created for eBay transactions.

    This thread's title says: No eBay Enquiries :)
    Granting exceptions would defeat its purpose.
