Never mind. I emailed Paul about it and he took care of it rather quickly. They misplaced my package and have just shipped it out today and they are giving me a tracking # tomorrow.

Are the rackets from Wilson usually matched?

Wilson contacts a local distributor and you pick up your racquets there. At least thats what Babolat did.
So basically, your not going to know.

gplracer · 02-10-2013, 06:19 PM

No one locally has them in stock. I am ordering directly from Wilson.

Then they will most likely just grab them off the shelves. Regardless if you have a full sponsorship or partial, they wouldn't spend the time to do so for 1 junior. If they did, there workers would be dead from exhaustion.

How long does it usually take for head to reply? Heard nothing after 2 weeks...

Really? I've heard nothing in about 2 weeks. Should I email them? I plan on getting 3 of the graphene speed pros too assuming I get the package.

MarinaHighTennis · 02-12-2013, 10:12 PM

did you send them your ranking, etc.? They might be verifying who you are still

Yeah I filled out everything on the team head application. It says they'll get back to you in less than six weeks, so maybe I'm just being too impatient.

Babolat returned our call within a day. Several years ago, Prince also returned email in 2-3 days. You may want to call them.

I'll give them a week or 2 then email them.

i know head doesn't do that. My rackets are shipped from Baltimore but I'd very much prefer picking it up at a local dealer since I have like 20 near my house haha

Babolat sure does.

Well, hopefully i move to a good location in a couple years. Just 5 years early preparation to move down to SoCal. Maybe next to the Tennis Warehouse haha. Theres like no tennis stores around where i live. Be thankful that you dont have to pay for shipping every other week.

Calling them would seem like the proper approach. As long as they answer there phones.

Yeah I will give them a little bit though

PhotoBlue · 02-18-2013, 03:43 PM

I sent in the application again. We'll see what happens this time...

Does anyone know if these packages from Head also exist in (Western) Europe?

If not from Head, perhaps Yonex or Tecnifibre?
