Hey Charliemacko, I have a couple of questions about your bat. 1.How much was it? 2.Do they ship overseas? Thanks Scotty |

hi scotty, as I am a sponsored fusion player i cannot tell you how much i payed for my bat, neither can cricko or warne in the making. But i think it should cost a non sponsored player around 160 pounds which itself is great value as other companies are charging 250+ for this kind of bat. However i feel that if you email or phone Bill he is more likely than not able to offer you some kind of discount just as long as you are a good ambassador of his fusion gear. yes the bat can be shipped abroad, but obviously the price for postage increases dramatically i think to europe its 22 pounds and the rest of the world 30 odd pounds, dont quote me on that ask bill. If you chose a fusion bat you will not be dissappointed i can tell you that! Fusion have never had anything but positive reviews.
I hope you chose fusion Charlie |

Well, I haven't purchased a bat yet. I can't find any shop that sells a real hard-ball bat here in Canada. And if I get it imported, the money for shipping and handling will cost more than the actual bat.

hmmm, i cant think of anything for you. I have heard of some canadians purchasing laver and wood bats, or you could contact fusion (lol). but yeah why not give laver and wood a call, they're based in nz |

That's really not a good idea. I mean it would probably cost me $200 for shipping and handling all the way from New Zealand, and for that much I could buy a another good bat.

I think England is 5 hours ahead of Canadian time so according to England time. The time right now is 6:09 pm which is I think 11:09 pm England time. |

yer listen to charlie and all the people saying fusion bradbury impala laver and wood bats are the best beacuse there 100 % correct and the bats are customly made to meet what you expect from a bat for an average price still pretty expensive but worth it , you dont ever buy kookaburras or gray nics for under the price of 450 au (170 odd pounds) because master batmakers dont make them and it is bad wood, they are ok for 450au + because thats some of the companies best wood and there master bat makers make them if your looking for a really cheap but good bat gte your bats from sri lanka india or pakistan and make sure its not kashmir willow and then it will just be the luck of the draw to how good it is but you can get around 4 of them for the price of 1 decent europene or australian DECENT bat

I've never even seen a Bradbury, and obviously never used one either, I've only heard of them.
You have a Fusion? How is it? What do you mean by 'it blew you away'. |

Why not??????? They make bats right for the individual. Not an average inbetween what everyone wants. I wouldnt trust a bigger company like Kookaburra the way i trust bill at fusion
