New/Old Stock Rackets (incredible find)

[andy_macdxb]

New here, thank you.

Check out these new/old stock rackets from the 70's / 80's. They're all in v. good condition and the stings (cat gut) are still at tension. These rackets could actually be used to play right now, They've have never hit a ball period.

And the really amazing thing, my partner has 2000 pc's he uncovered in the back of his warehouse. Photos taken today.

These examples include:
DUNLOP BLUE FLASH + GOLD WING
SLAZENGER DEMON, COMMANDER, AMBASSADOR
ADVANCES NATIONAL

* apologies for the quality of photos, is Saturday morning and I do not have a studio

No WILSON no ADIDAS

Hoping ppl can advise, is there a market for these and are there any big buyers?

PS more pics/vids available if anyone interested

There's a limited market for these, but will take a concerted marketing effort to maximize your return. Are you setup to do this?

You could also sell them in a large consignment to a UK or euro buyer, but no idea how to auction them properly.

Any graphite 80s frames?

Anytime shipping costs more than the perceived value of a racket (or a bunch of them) - there is a very good chance that this seemingly incredible find just ends up being a huge hassle unless you get really lucky with someone who really wants the bulk lot. The country of location can matter as well. For your sake and your friends sake I really hope I am wrong though!

Sorry these aren’t going to be worth much, but they would be right at home in a museum.

Most mono shaft woodies I buy locally for 3-5 at thrift stores. Obviously these are in better shape, but realistic value might only be 10-15 per frame.

I'll take them all for $20 shipped
