Fake - but tempted Definitely tempted just to see how bad they are! If nothing else would do as a beginners racket
Fake Armortec 800 DE???? I recently purchased this racquet online off of ebay. Here is the site: http://cgi.ebay.ca/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=7146187877&fromMakeTrack=true#ShippingPayment The seller states that the racquet is 100% authentic, but I'm not sure. I've included pictures for your viewing. Thanks.
I just dont want to believe it! The seller was so honest, I don't think he knows he's selling fakes. What do I do now?
If you do a search on "babolat2004", you can a see a couple of posts stating that he is in fact selling fakes.... sorry, bud.
$130 USD? Considering the cost of one is just $15 USD if you buy it in bulk order in China. I think he will do anything for it. Profit rate: more than 700% By the way, the plastic wrap is too high; genuine rackets never have wraps that high.
babolat2004 is pretty smart, only using pics of the head on his ebay page thing. I think every seller should atleast post a pic of their serial numbers
Talk to him and say you want a refund. Some guy who purchased a racquet from him got his money back. Good luck.
I will ask him for refund and report to ebay about the situation. Ask them to initiate an investigation. Good luck! You should check the forum before you buy the racquet.
I'm not sure whether it is fake or not but.... Post your serial number here http://www.badmintoncentral.com/forums/showthread.php?t=8152
Posting to the above thread can only results whether the serial no. and date code are legitimate. You still need to inspect carefully the features of the racket physcially to decide whether it is a real or fake Yonex racket. This is because fake manufacturers are getting more canny.
same pix for multiple items waz - not saying your racquet's fake, in fact, it looks real but i've noticed that this guy will use the same pix for multiple similar items in his eBay shop (see links below). just FYI as his stuff looks authentic... maybe it reinforces the view that we all need to be very careful about getting nice clear pix on eBay. anyone have experience with this guy? http://cgi.ebay.com.au/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&rd=1&item=7145202148&ssPageName=STRK:MEWA:IT http://cgi.ebay.com.au/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&rd=1&item=7146396882&ssPageName=STRK:MEWA:IT jim
The list can probably be updated with this one seller: http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=7146329250&ssPageName=ADME:B:EF:US:1
