    The NS9k9 is for sale at the AE.. I picked it up, it sure is damn stiff. Didn't like the feel of it as much as an Arc 10 though.

    What? No it wouldn't. What year is it? Two-thousand (2k) and (9). Do you write the date as 20009?

    Btw, the 9900 (forget about shortening it) felt head heavy compared to the ArcSaber 10. Strange..

    The YONEX 9900 is available at Classic Sports.

    Mr Soh from Classic Sports had indicated to me that he will be able to offer at < S$300/-, with string and grip.

    Anyone interested please approach him directly. I will not state any definite price over the forum because of my previous bad experience. It will be more adequate for anyone interested to go to his shop.

    Thanks.

    Looks like there's no SP version of 2U NS9.9K, even Sunrise did not carry it-the salesgirl said no stock.

    can whoever buys a new ns9900 let us know what price they got it at?
    please include what strings, bag and other goodies it came with so we can make meaningful comparisons.
    thanks!

    See this and this :)

    However, do note that this is a 'new release' price.
    By now, this should have dropped by at least 5% to 8%, if not more.

    The only thing that came with it was the racquet cover - it's the same as those that accompany the older Nanospeeds. I paid extra for the string and stringing.

    In a few days from now, one should be able to get the racquet, its cover, a decent string and stringing (and maybe a grip) for this 'new release' price :)
