i was back from taiwan few days ago, visit this shop 张文彦 松山体育文具用品有限公司 (02)27624644 台北市松山路340号 (永春捷运站5号出口) the price is reasonable cheap with superb service from the boss and his wife. they are very friendly and informative. for those u plan to visit taiwan and wanna get some TW version racket, i recommend u pay a visit to this store.
hi.. will be in taipei this coming december. would like to check with you on the price of the yonex racquet.. it was showing 3900(online purchase) for armortec 900p and the usual price is 6500. It quite a big difference. What would be the price if i were to walk in for the purchase?
You should get at least 30% discount off the Recommended Retail Price (RRP). The AT900P's RRP is NT$6,500. http://www.yonex.com.tw/badminton_at_900_power.asp
I believe you will get the same price (or lower) when you walk in (but I may be wrong). Suggest you print out the web page and bring it along to Taipei. If you are quoted a higher price, show the web offer to the sales assistant and request them to match that offer price. http://www.jollysport.com.tw/merchandise_1.asp?No=1241 Personally I prefer to go to 松山, 龍騰虎躍 and 上展 http://www.yonex.com.tw/store.asp?loc=1
I'm sorry to 'waking up' an old thread.. I'm currently in Taiwan, and right now i wanna search for a badminton store ( with good stringer and good after-sales service too ) in South Part of Taiwan ( either Kaohsiung or Tainan City ) could u guys recommend me 1 or 2 stores to go? I know a store in Tainan City ( at Mingcyuan Lu ) where I usually go, but I think sometimes the price is a little bit high than it should be.. thank you very much *FYI, i can't read chinese character too well*
Those stores highlighted in blue are the flagship stores in South Taiwan. I heard 泰山 in Kaohsiung is popular. http://www.yonex.com.tw/store.asp?loc=3
Thanks alot Sealman for the info, but I just asked my taiwanese friend, they said it's quite far from my place *my place is in the countryside of tainan city* how about the other two located in 高雄 ? is it good?
Apologize for digging out an old thread but I will be traveling to Taiwan this Sunday for my wedding photo shoot. And would like to do some shopping for badminton stuff at the same time. Would some fellow-forumer's kindly confirm are the two shop mention in Taipei still around? Or have relocated to elsewhere? Also, I will be visiting Kaohsiung for this trip, so I would love to do some badminton stuff shopping in this city as well. Thank you in advance
Since i found eric, i rarely look elsewhere to search for badminton stuff.. i think he's one of the best in Taiwan.. u can try to contact him: Eric Chiu squashmart@gmail.com
I would suggest you visit those flagship stores highlighted in red: http://www.yonex.com.tw/store.asp?loc=3 http://www.yonex.com.tw/store.asp?loc=1 But I reckon your partner will hide your wallet
Thank you 57.Christ for the information! Will send Chris an email for more details Sealman, thanks for the info too, let me know if you need anything I will hide my own wallet from her first.
