    I can't have a clear look, photo is blurrrrr. Base on info given, serial and cone code looks good BUT modern fakes also come with good looking codes and serial.

    A friend gave me his VTZF2 LD red for restring, turned out to be a high quality fake.

    Serial: 6292735
    Cone code: 080955JP

    Cone code and serial looks good, indentation can be seen on the laser engraved codes, butt cap is very close to REAL.

    What gave it away?
    1. NO Japan GS mark on cone. ALL JP coded rackets come with GS mark.
    2. Even though the cap looks real but it is an old butt cap design with small J that was used prior to 2014. The font does not have consistent thickness as well, the N looks a lot bolder.
    3. The cone code fonts looks real with laser engraved codes BUT the font is different and indentation location is also wrong.

    That is the reason why I need to have a CLOSE UP photos of cone codes and butt cap to be 100% sure.

    Can you view the google drive now? I updated more pictures. removed the old ones. Thanks

    I think that's the clearest I can get using my camera phone.
