    Like BlueJeff said, use search function and dig up a lot of threads with the exact same topic, many people ask, and it is discussed at least once a week.

    As for Armortec pricing, it ranges from 600-1800 HK dollars. Average pricing for the following (as of August, 2005):

    AT-700: 900 HK dollars.
    AT-500: 650 HK dollars.
    AT-800OF: 1050 HK dollars.
    AT-800DF: 1050 HK dollars.
    AT-LM: 1500-1800 HK dollars.

    AT-LM = Limited Edition AT, 5000 worldwide.

    Good Shop in Hong Kong

    Hi, there,

    Maybe you can try Racket Shop in Mongkok, they are selling only original goods and the prices are competitive. (Tel : (23980897))

    Good Luck !:)

    Hi, there,

    You know them much better. Are you their executive board members ? Or are you their competitor ? Which one ?

    I like to know more about you. Maybe we can get some discount from you as it is obviously you are doing this kind of business.

    Being a consumer, we are care about the original goods rather than whether they are parallel imported goods. Price is important. Quality is important.
    That 's why many people go overseas to buy parallel goods.

    Cheers.:p :p

    shop selling parallel imported goods mean they bought their goods directly from other countries or shops. not through the local dealer.

    Hi, Badman,

    When you come to Hong Kong buying anything back to Philippines, we called those parallel imported goods to Philippines. These includes cameras, DV, TV, Cars, or whatsoever. However, they are genuine and original.

    If you buy a racket from japan, then you are parallel import a Japanese version racket. I hope you understand my poor explaination.

    Racket Shop is the name of the company. However, I may better not introduce you anymore as someone of their same business is here and is jealousy.
    You just call them and see where they are.

    Bye.:)

    u might wanna look at:

    www.e78.com.hk/sports.htm

    I use that as a reference guide of HK racket prices. Altho I think the price is v. tempting, I probably wont get anything from them bcoz of their remoteness... Goodluck in your racket hunting~ ;)

    and no, Im not related to this shop in any case.... just wanna help out fellow bfers :eek: Peace!

    There should be no fake Cab 20 in Hong Kong. But not all shops are selling Cab 20, you can visit Emmy and Rose, I remember these two shops are still selling this model.

    Hi Ka-Shing,

    If you are in Hong Kong now, you can visit HK Yahoo Auction. A guy called Faiback is now selling a mint condition Cab 20 JP at very good price (lower than the Cab 20 SP). I have purchased a mint condition Cab 30 MS from him before, he is very nice!!!!!
