    Doesn't this bag tell you enough, aside from the price? http://cgi.ebay.com/New-Yonex-Muscl...928?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item3f032349b8

    Not to mention it's missing an essential piece of MP (except MP100) racquets http://www.mybadlookbad.com/product2/mp99_3m.jpg http://www.bbeshop.com/yonex/yonex2005/racket_mp66_frame_02.jpg (the black strip)

    Or this bag as an example of a recent model http://cgi.ebay.com/2010-New-Yonex-...256?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item3f03234b00 A clear tell-tale sign apart from this bag looking completely different is the letter "O". The sides shouldn't be flat (nowadays) ...

    If you still have a but if urge: http://www.badmintoncentral.com/for...338-Ebay-buying-Time-to-learn-in-the-hard-way

    There are no too good to be true deals in such large quantities unless they fell of the back of the truck and even then it wouldn't be this cheap

    Hey guys,

    Please tell me your opinion on squash_mart http://myworld.ebay.com/squash_mart/
    I might have some things that I wanna buy from him, including badminton racket(s).
    I read only good things about this business - RKEP and Erik, but I wanna be sure
    (now that I burned myself with a so called ,,friend'' that bought me a fake ArcSaber
    Z-Slash from Japan). Demolidor, please tell me your opinion.

    Thanks again folks, and have a great one !

    Other than that I still have to order some grips there as well, long overdue. Just trying to spread out my orders for two reasons :D.

    The thing is, that right now, a lot of people are saying that their Li Ning rackets purchased from "cysltcy" on Ebay are genuine because they entered the racket code into the website. The clone factory must have copied codes from authentics and put it on their rackets... I feel sorry for those people who commented "Thanks for fantastic raquet! 100% genuine, much cheaper than others". Does anyone know how these rackets perform? Also, some people are getting full refunds because they simply told the seller that it was fake. How interesting

    Can't really check without both numbers but the non-SP/JP/CH codes are generally safe ... For this one shaft serial should be around 7635000 (+/-~1500)

    No problems there, fits in where it should [​IMG]

    Yeah and "they" still give positive feedback :rolleyes:. Who are "a lot of people"?

    "Q: Please tell me, is this item Class-G or Class-A racket? Thanks in advance. Best regards!
    A: Both are not.it is original one.thanks!

    Q: Are your rackets clones or genuine?
    A: The racket is genuine.Thanks!
    "

    And like you said, no problem getting a refund apparently without much fuss ...

    I guess that the seller makes really good clones if 99% of the buyers are satisfied (some even believing it is genuine thanks to an unreliable website code checker). The codes must have been duplicated from a genuine's. Anyone bought from this guy yet? I bet some people buy it, knowing that it is fake and then report it to the seller who gives them their money back (you can tell by looking at the feedback, the number of sellers reporting "broken or fake" rackets is increasing).

    Usually you (/I) leave feedback upon arrival, they probably haven't even played with it and the fake claimers probably had it checked here [​IMG].

    (Post #3437 was supposed to only have the last quote btw ...)
