Not that rare. You can still find it from TT and the auction site.Dunlop Max 200g

I have a mate who wants to sell his oversize mad raq for $140. Is that a reasonable price?.
I actually gave away some original orange/grey Donnay pro No1 a few years back. Now repeat after me Nickynu is an idiot.
Nice question! Judging by the price I paid for it, the Slazenger Vilas Pro would be up there.
I think $140 may be a bit steep for a Mad Raq. I've seen them go for anywhere from $70 to a little more than $100.
As for your orange/grey Donnay, you're only an idiot in hindsight. If only we all knew what was going to be valuable someday.
I think I have the rarest racket ever. Check 80's tennis .com, go to oddish racquets, scroll till you hit the last pictures. Mine is the weird Chinese racket. I bet no one else in the world has it, well, maybe one or two.
I only have it listed in NZ dollars, but it would have been around the US$200 mark - mind you, it's brand new and came in a fabulous case.Dare we ask the kind of figure paid ? Ballpark is ok if you dont want to say?

Having that number is indeed special - however my understanding is that this was a cheap knock-off that Dunlop made and not to be compared with the original. I almost bought one, but was warned off it.This a very rare one
The "Dunlop Mad Raq", this one has the serial number 0000001!

new chicago or st vincent midsize prostaffs -i've seen a few.
new orifiginal, or even 2nd generation, prestige pros - i have not seen any.
Yes, it's the serial number that makes it special
As for the racquet, I thought it was rare, but yes, it is indeed a copy, a licensed copy though!
I must admit Dunlop is my favourite make of racquet, so I am biased!
Jimbo- Since your a Dunlop fan, what are your thoughts on the Muscle Weave95 and Revelation 95(green & gold checkered). I picked up a brand NEW M/Weave 95 and a excellent Revelation 95. I also found a NEW Revelation 95, what is this racquet worth? Thanks.......Dan
And another very rare one, the Donnay Borg Mid
Jumbo, I don't think this is one is rare. I just gave one for free to someone. Seen lots of them. BTW, they warp like hell.
I think I'm looking more like Dumbo in this thread:???:

the Hi Tens - I've only ever seen one come up for auction in about 12 years of looking.
If you look at what people pay for them in new or mint condition I think it's pretty rare. There are a new one on the big auction site right now with a Buy It Now price at 1200 USD Not many other racquets cost that much. I know it's not sold jet, but this is not the first one at that money.
How about the original Slazenger Phantom with the double bridge? It was discontinued soon after its release, because it tended to snap at the throat. A beautiful rarity though. Does anyone else have one?
one was just sold on *bay last week for $48 -i knew i should have set my snipe higher.
