Default Just a quick question on a string..

Guys, just a quick question. Can anybody tell me if Luxilon Big Banger has wording on it? Reason being is that somebody has come to me to get his racket restrung and he said its currently strung with big banger and paid £30 for it! When I look it doesn't say luxilon on it (normally big brand strings do, could be wrong?) and it says made in china. I think it's fake but I haven't used big banger before. Just would like to alert the customer/stringer.

Thanks in advance!

A lot of coloured string might not have wording on them.

The name is definitely on the string. I have TiMo, ALU Power, ALU Power Rough, Adrenaline, Ace, and Big Banger Original. The only one I don't see writing on is the Power Rough. Course, I didn't open the packet, but it would stand to reason since it's a textured string.

I'm pretty sure that all Luxilon string is made in Belgium, not China.

So, I would make the conclusion that you got RIPPED OFF. Sucks, but it could be worse.
