at 1st i thouigh this is a fake racuet though..but after sometime i found out that this is a genuine racquet.. sorry if i have makes u worried too much, dude.
Definitely real... Good job for you... If I were one of ur friend, I would say it's fake too cuz I might get jealous!~ haha
haha the person that was telling me that it's fake arrived to play badminton today, with an arcsaber that looked exactly like mine, except a different serial number ofcourse. haha, he seemed embarassed at the fact.
Noo its definatly real. I have one and it looks identical as far as i can tell from the pics. Ive recently seen a fake and the white paint on the frame tends to differ from the real ones. So as far as i can tell from the pics its real
So he had difficulty inspecting trying to find out what is fake eh? LOL!! Of course there is nothing to go on, however unless he can prove the opposite you can, only if they had the knowledge. You should direct that person on the BC forums to your thread, that iwll show him! . Also, this proves that the person in question does not know how to tell genuine rackets from counterfeit rackets.
I think your racket like the one i bought is fake. I bought an original 2 days ago to compare and saw the only difference is the white and light gold coloured words. The words .......blar blar... is printed in white in your Arc 10 but its supposed to be electronically engrave with light gold letters on all original racket.:crying:
That means you are not sure yourself which essentially means you do not know. By the way, it is electronicly engraved in the picture, which also supports that you do not know. It is genuine by looking at the pics. Also there is also another clue in the picture which supports that is real which I also know about. Not sure if others know about but no one has pointed it out yet.
We all have too remember that he bought the ARC10 from www.badmintonshoponline.us and they are a authorised seller. If somehow they were selling fakes they are in big trouble.
They are not a Yonex Authorized Dealer for JP. To be correct, even the owner admitted that they will be trouble if they carried other coded rackets (hint hint) and yet they carry other coded rackets like the JP on the site? ROFL!
I believe they are located in HK so they should be carrying SP/HK. However the first question to ask is they actually a Yonex Authorized Dealer?
They just have that domain as they picked it. As one member on the forum mentioned, it's pretty deceptive.
If you look at the pictures all he has is the HK SS so that would mean he is in HK. Some of this prices are overpriced. Have a look at AT700LTD - $229USD. The cheapest i can get it is at $125USD
