    I didn't buy the Glanz (I'm not that gullible), however I was given it as a gift for some work I had done free of charge for a community group who wanted to pay me back somehow. I wouldn't say no to a free racket...lol.

    Kindest regards,

    Probably rare there. Easy to rind double color in asia at least. Hell I saw one in those colors at the shop just last week.

    I've been to Korea several times, even living there for some time due to my studies, and I've never encountered anything like that :confused:
    better get some of those myself :cool:

    Maybe yonex korea or the shops there tried it and it didn't have demand. I know those are easily available in SG at least which means Malaysia and Indonesia should have them too.

    sure me either, but maybe for "retired" rackets just to look differently

    Haha I suppose. I don't see the point though. I much rather it look clean and presentable instead of funky.

    Definitely, however I don't recall Yonex making them, so I assumed he made them himself. If so, that's quite impressive :D.

    Exactly the opposite of my experience, especially since the Meteor series was way overpriced. The BS series garnered some interest, but that went away when there was no affordable racket in the MX series
