Default Real or Fake NSIX ONE TEAM

Hi,
I recently purchased a Wilson nsix one team 95".
Im not sure if it's real or fake, i bought it for AUD185.
I know its hard to tell from the photo's but i would be really glad if someone could help me out.

i just recently bought the same racket frm e#b#a#y but for 130 aus (bidded) not buy now . I assume its real because it had the original price sticker with all the barcoding on the plastic.

Yeh ive had a hit with mine, it feels great. Its strung with sigmum pro poly plasma as well.

You may have the newer version, what is the colour the wilson "W" and its background above your grip?

i found another difference

you no the very last pictur of the list? look right at the bottom where the W is. Right above that... seems like the white paint is too far down going to the W. that area should be red until the top

hmm seems to me urs look newer than mine because never in my life iv seen a white replacement grip on a n-six one team ....

My W is white and the back ground (square part) is Red.


i mean as long as it plays fine u dont need to worry about anything

I just took the plastic off the grip.
The handle is actually black and it does say micro dry.

The paint on the plastic made it seem white

my guess that it is a fake, check the string pattern, i'm sure i counted 16x18 but on the throat i think it says 18x20, for some reason fakes always seem to have incorrect stringing patterns. They also seem to have 4 1/4 grip sizes, if you took the grip off you could see if there is a grip pallett underneath or some chinese writting.

Why is there a 16x18 pattern on a team?

And the small wilson logo below the throat, I don't know, it could be a newer paint job, but it looks fishy to me...
