Nets

One of the most underappreciated pieces of table tennis equipment is the net. Like a good umpire, a good net is hardly ever noticed. However a bad net can be very frustrating. It can be exasperating, if it doesn’t remain tight, or isn’t exactly six inches high, or is a pain to put on and take off. That’s why we try to only sell good quality nets. Of course there will be a difference in quality between our least expensive net and post set at $19.95, and our most expensive one at $129.95.

We sold over 1,000 nets from 4 brands; Andro, Cornilleau , Donic and Stiga. We sold 20 different models, including, extra nets (no posts, just the nets), Flex Nets (can be used on any surface), Clip, and traditional screw on.

Racket Case

A racket case is an essential part of the routine you should be following to keep your racket performing well for as long a time as possible. After each time you play, clean your racket, and place it in a cover to help protect it. There are basically three types of cases; those in the form of a racket (Cover), or rectangular shape (Case), and finally rectangular with a hard cover. There are also racket cases for one racket, for two rackets, and with a pocket for balls. And of course each manufacturer tries to make their case look as attractive as possible.

In 2018, we sold over 1,300 racket cases from 9 brands; Andro, Butterfly, Donic, Gewo, Palio, Stiga, TSP, Xiom, and a special one we made PPD. We sold 90 different models.
