Yup I remember paying like $3500 for a custom Scotty Cameron 009 welded neck centershaft in chromatic blue back in the day lmao

Launch date is going to be pushed back to 8/4 due to shipment issues.

well what’s 2 weeks more when it has been done for over a year now. Production issues or they are sending out so many demos that they depleted all the ones in inventory to sell?

Saw this bat at Play it Again sports in Evansville Indiana today. Clear end cap so you can see the inner barrel, grey and black bat color.

LS fp bats are made in China also...so they are gonna have the same shipping issues anything else does. Production
is prob very spotty right now and cant get all the weights done yet and quantities needed. You dont wanna release a bat
and only be able to supply a small percentage of the orders to stores.

Maybe they def should have saved some of the demos to ship to stores...haha

Talked with a local Sporting Goods guy and he showed me a pic of them in the back. Can't sale until Aug. 5.

Showed you a pic....didnt show you the bat and just say he cant sell til the 5th?

I find it strange. I have never had a bat shipped to me and told I cant sell for 3 weeks. I have had a couple days.
Because guess when your payment terms start...when they ship.

The industry I work in has a lot of products built and shipped from China. It's an absolute mess right now. Even if the product is ready and in a container (another issue).....when said container actually gets on a vessel is anyone's guess. So the launch delay isn't surprising if the bats are produced there.

The pic was the entire circular display (10 bats?). Thought it was weird also.

He's juicing you. If they had them in stock he would have put the bat in your hand.

Most manufacturers will have a set introduction date and prohibit early sales if the ship date is sooner. That said I seriously doubt this dealer has Meta bats in stock

Its a great bat.
