    Before I posted previous question, I was playing around in HQ site. Seems if I order 50 tubes, the S/H reduced to 0. :rolleyes:

    Sosan Black fly faster than HiQua birds in general.

    i hit hq reds with dan yesterday for a little warm up and to test out Arcadia Badminton Club. Also played with them at sgvbc later that nite and they're great. Lasted a whole singles game (mild game). No wonder they're 18 bucks a tube. grade a for the win!

    A heads up to those with contacts in HK.

    I ordered some Hi-Qua Red from mybadmintonstore and had them delivered to a friend in HK who will handcarry them to Vancouver. The owner charged me $940HK for 10 tubes which converts to around $12.80CAD per tube.

    Last year I bought a few tubes of Hi-Qua Red's in combination with RSL Tourney 1. In total 100 tubes. The Hi-Qua red's were around 89 HKD.

    The 94 HKD price I got was for 10 tubes. I'm sure they'll give a bigger discount for a bulk order of 100 tubes.


    That's their HK pickup price, paid in cash.

    On 75 tubes think the shipping was $65 US if I remember correctly. It takes about 8-10 weeks to get here to calgary from Mainland China.
