Does this racket look genuine?

    Hi all, I am tempted to buy this 1st gen Ti-10 for collection from this private seller. Price is alright not overly pricey also not overly cheap but I just wanted second opinion on whether this is a genuine racket. I am a bit concerned that this is a SP coded racket but without a PBSI logo. Is that normal?

    Many thanks in advance. :)

    Hard to say....the yonex logo mis-alignment on racket head really bothered me though

    I saw a video about how to spot fakes in the last year or so. But all the information might not be relevant to that age of racquet :(

    It said to look at the yonex logos, they can be misaligned, especially the distance between the circles and triangles.

    The serial should be laser etched iirc.

    The logo on the frame should be a certain way.

    And the holo sticker should be real. It looks like if there was a holo sticker on the picture, it has come away. You can see the 2ug5 sticker is peeling a bit.
