Yeah I agree it's out of date. One of the main problems faced is that it is up to the particular Yonex GM of that country to decide what products they want to carry in the market. --------------- Ghostwriter, I actually did see one asian shirt at Tad's which was obtained from some promotion or something as I was asking the owner if Yonex Canada carried some of the asian styles which I was inquiring on. Then he pulled it out and shown it to me and explained, as I was trying to find a certain shirt which I eventually purchased.
one thing is for sure, SE SPORTS at crystal mall does not sell counterfeights. they are authorized dealers because i have seen their yonex shipments coming in with yonex canada shipping list from alberta. as for shirts, like some of you said, tads also have those. selling somethign other than yonex canada products doesnt make them non authorized dealers. Because as you guys might realize, most of the yonex rackets they sell in canada are darn expensive and from what i heard, people who carries yonex canada brand do not make much profit. so it sunderstandable that these shops finds alternatives to make additional profit while maintaining their reputation.
True, that they are expensive, which is influenced by Canada customs because of the imports. Of course there are some shops are the area which are selling at outrageous prices, that a customer can just a shop another dealer which has a better price and reputation.
From new information I've obtained. Yonex Canada has actually warned those authorized shops (except one who did this for a short while but stopped) about the importation. Worst, if the imported items was caught by Canada customs, they will be in for a fine.
Interestingg thread...no wondering if feels different when I go in there. It's not all canada imported..hehe =)
rotflmao... i personally don't care as long as i can get the racquet i want. I hate buying stuff i cannot hold in my hands.
Luckily I can get any products in general easily into my hands at good prices. Just need to have the proper connections to do it.
well the place is a tad bit over priced from looking at their website. Does anyone know if they are willing to haggle since it IS at crystal mall? also their website selection is a little lacking, do they have a larger selection in store? Thanks,
Might have the go in the store and see. In terms of price, Tad's wins. Also, to Yonex Canada sales, Tad's is #1.
Last time I check, Tad's selling MP99 for about 200 bucks, which is still pretty expensive for an out-dated racquet in Japan.
God damn, never got my babies strung at Special Edition ever again after stringing up with bg80s at 24lbs and then the next day they were like 21lbs-.-
But recently some people have been telling me that they got new stringer. However i refuse to go there anymore since AhhhShum is good with my racquet ;D
I don't feel like starting another topic. But can anyone recommend me a place where I can acquire a MP99 at a "reasonable" price? I have around $160 for it.
Hey i just wanted to say that Special Edition's racquets are all real and geniune I bought an Arcsaber Z-Slash from Special Edition and it was real! =DDD They Strung the racquet and even gripped it for me =) Special Edition is trusted by me
it costed 245$ but its real =) and the people that work there are nice. If u bargain with them they will lower the price xD. I payed full price though because they were nice people. They have lots of other yonex racquets if u think Arcsaber Z-Slash is kinda pricey. They even have kawasaki racquets if u like those. Or victor racquets and black knight. but i just prefer yonex lol
