Hi I was looking at the prices on rubbers from presport and they are cheaper than any other place I've seen. For example Yasaka Mark V is 22$ Canadian. While dandoy (which I consider to be a good general indicator) is 32$. The price is cheaper for almost all rubbers though not by as much. Even with shipping it's a better price. What's the deal? Are the rubbers authentic?

I know about long shipment times but 3.5 months is ridiculous. Are you sure it's comming? What do they say?

Did you actually order and pay or are you just waiting for them to restock PLLSystem?

Of course I have paid. Otherwise they wouldn't not have taken a single step for the business. I ordered VSG 21-2000 AN they had only FL on stock but they promised to get it from Butterfly in 5-8 weeks. So I didn't wonder but I am not glad. At the same time I ordered the same bat from Butterflyonline. It arrived 5days into my hand after ordering. Dandoy is the same.

Yeah, I have just received their mail: my bat is on stock. They are about to send it to me. "It could take up to 21 working days for certain countries."
Perhaps I can have it to Xmas

Never had a problem with PreSports or with Dandoy.
I've bought blades, rubbers, shirts, glue.

The problem is I wanted to order stuff that they don't have in stock (they never have the thickness I want for any rubber). So I'm afraid of running into the same problem. Otherwise I read other posts where people got their stuff ok.

If you live in US or Canada, PAY THE EXTRA MONEY! I ordered from Dandoy and it took a good 2 months for the rubber to come. I got a Neos Sound, its not a very good sound at all, I think its a fake, and the guy made nothing about excuses as to why it was so late, such as he was on vacation, his email wasn't working, the system didn't get my order the first time...

the only drawback on these foreign sies is that your shipment maybe checked by US customs and they will charge a large tax for you to bring such materials into the states. But that only happens if your shipment get checked which is almost never (although I get it once ordered stuff worth 75 bucks and the fee was almost 60 bucks).

Wow that's a crazy customs charge. For Canada, we get charged 14% + $8.00 handling fee per box, which isn't too bad on larger orders.

i ordered my jpen blade from iruiru and they didn't have it in stock. they emailed kokutaku and got it sent out to me the next day, great service, fast delivery. thing is, they have expensive shipping and i hate the fact that on the 2 occasions i've ordered from them i had to pay customs and taxes both times... first time was 25 or so and last timewas 13... sad...
