    no closed up pictures of the serial number though... and it was selling for 40.1071 USD not inclusive of the delivery fee.. from what i understand, nanospeeds are usually priced at quit a high cost.. so is this a fake?

    Erm Yonex have a new colour scheme for NS7700 already??? If not than Its a fake. Even an Apacs Nano 7700 looks better.

    The obvious part in most fake racquets is the poor quality of the plastic wrap over the original factory grip which usually has the huge "YONEX" on it. Compare that to a real NS77000, you'd notice the original factory grip is more detailed in design whereas fakes are always made with cheap material/leather. Sorry to hear your NS7700 is a fake.

    I got stung this way on a 900P recently. Look for big, well known sites (and authorized Yonex dealers, if possible) first and foremost - they can't afford to sell fakes or they will be prosecuted. Unfortunately, the best ways to spot a fake are only available once the racket is in your hand...
