Hi there TO team,

Any chance you will be bringing in Gosen AK Control 17 strings? I see you have AK Pro CX ones, but the Control version seems to tick all the boxes a little better for me, based on the TWU stringing DB .

Cheers

Pro Tour 2.0 section on the Tennis Only site removed and banner taken down, makes sense when you don't have the stock to sell, doesn't look good for a restock down under though. ☹

As someone who doesn't live in Perth or Melbourne, I don't find them to be a very good retailer. Their combination of price, range and customer service makes it hard to pick them over either local bricks and mortar stores, or overseas online retailers.

The Melbourne Store is fantastic. We have always found the guys there very helpful. Prices for most of their stuff is competitive now that the AU Dollar has tanked against the Euro and the USD.

Prior to the Melbourne Store opening, we purchased plenty of stuff from Tennis Only via the online store, including tennis racquets. Again, no problems at all and prices are extremely competitive especially during Promotion periods.

Compared to other local Melbourne stores, their Melbourne store is best by far, and the company has the most sales and very frequently throughout the year - and customer service reps are the nicest and most helpful

Whereas the local 'Tenniswarehouse Australia' store basically never puts an item on sale unless they need to clear it, and the max discount they will give is around 10% - they also never follow any of the sale holidays such as Black Friday, or Click Frenzy happening right now

As for other private pro shops, i can understand not being able to put stuff on sale, because their margins are probably low and revenue is probably not great either

Is not affiliated with the Tennis Warehouse we all know and love. Tenniswarehouse Australia is really a side business that is run by the family who owns the Real Estate and the Storage Business / Facilities that its store is located there.

I bought shoes from tullamarine which were wrong size, but they wouldn't let me return them to the hawthorn store which was closer.

Would you get in some more Asics ff court 2 shoes, OTHER than size 7.0 or 14.0 being the ONLY ones??? so weird...

Only 7.0 and 14.0!

Hmm, something tells me you were left stranded with both ends of the range and are perhaps not ordering anymore, or cannot obtain?
