BTW: Just missed the opportunity to buy two Prestige Master at a bargain price (<$10 /each).

You're correct i think they'd of gotten more money if they were not all listed at the same time.
The prestige frames reached a fair bit though didn't they.

$400 for the Prestige 600 (lime-green) was way too much for my taste. All 6 of them were won by one bidder for $2,400 USD.

I am wondering how SE plays. Let me know guys if anyone here has won one of them.

That's humorous.
It might be a while. The SE version is probably very similar but slightly stiffer.

Can someone tell me at which point the far right Pro Tour came out in relation to the others? it's the only one with a paint job like this.

It has silicone in the handle, and the paint is deeper blue than normal Pt630. The leather grip is deep red brown color and thicker heavier than any leather grip you can buy today..

Thanks for your reply - to your own picture!

Did you buy it this way and is it a retail stick?

I got it already has silicone. Not sure if it is retail stick, but most likely not.

Sorry about all the questions, and thanks for answering them... 1 more

Are you able to tell me how much it weighs? I'm wondering if it comes lighter than retail to allow for customizing.

That particular blue has 264 gram without grip pallet, bumper guard, but has silicone gel.

I have another hairpin with LM PRestige PJ, only 226 gram bare weight , no grommet, no pallet, no silicone

That's great, thanks for the info.

My friend bought around 15 rackets, each costed 15e. So he gave me all of them to try them out, and I ended up liking pt630 the most. I didn't even know what racket that was, I just liked the way it felt, it felt so solid on contact, best feel ever!!

So count me in the club. Got 2 over-grips on bare handle (because handle is #4, too big for me...anyway to make it smaller?????), rubber band instead of normal dampener = 340g total.

I never knew I could play with such a heavy racquet! I am even considering leading it up somewhere in the head.

I have a 280 and to be honest I played shite with it.
I've left it lying around for ages and i'm looking to sell it but just can't help the amount of good reviews it gets and MIGHT give it another go?

I was wondering where it was made?
Can someone point me in the right direction?
I know it says Made in Austria on side but not all of them are? some finished where ever I don't know..

Inside throat just says tension, no barcodes anywhere.





Thanks

Yours was made in Kennelbach, Austria.

[Kam2010]

Thanks vsb, appreciate it.

Can you or anyone else correct me if i'm wrong but I read a post can't remeber now which thread it was but the ones made in Austria were same mold or play similar to the pt57a? and the one made in the other place plays like an pt57e??


Can someone reassure me this racket is worth keeping and I won't miss it.

To the first bit, the "pt57A" is it seems what they now make for their pros who want a pro tour frame. (with some differences)
the second question about missing it, i think you can answer it best below!

Good point lol
I played with it a long time ago and to be honest I think I've improved as a player and this racket may not be as shite as I once thought it was..
