I sent out an Avarice (AVARSP1) on April 16th and was told today they are unsure when the new bats will arrive. Supposedly, I am getting the derby boys in return.

I have a question about a bat, and I'm not sure where I should post it. First, let me say that I am brand new to softballfans.com, and to the game of softball in general. I bought my first bat a few weeks ago, (Green Combat Avarice) and now it's broken. The guy I bought it from never gave me the receipt and now I have no way to get in touch with him. Is there anything I can do as far as a return, or am I just out of luck? Thanks in advance for any help you can give me.

Without the reciept there isnt much you can do! You maybe can call combat customer service but not sure they can do much for you.

Sent in a Avarice back in March and Im still waiting. Only called 3 x to get updates.(keeping my cool) called 3 weeks ago and was told bats were going to get sent out the following week. This was after the new ownership change over. STILL WAITING.


Worst Customer Service EVER.......:mad:

Been 2 months for my return! Been thru reorgs / merges. Most people just want the truth and they will adjust accordingly. Called 5 times (as recently as today) and was given 5 different dates. Last Combat I'll buy new. Reebok for senior bat and Miken / Worth for others from here on.......

Good luck with those Worths. LOL. http://forums.softballfans.com/showthread.php?t=1298570

It's not just Combat. Everyone is having issues from Easton to Worth to Miken to Combat.

Yes they are having some problems. Only have a couple models in stock like the XL, Fulk, and the JH 454, while people are having to wait to get something different. I know Legits are backordered along with some others. Some people are being told a 2 week turn around time and are on the 3 week mark.

As far as Miken goes I believe they have started to send some out. You saw the links I am sure there are more in those sections.

Dang, I cant even get these people to answer the phone. I love Combats but they may not be worth putting up with the terrible customer service.

Yay! Sent my bat in on April 16th and received the USSSA Derby boys on June 20th. Only took around 5 calls to get a correct update. :)

Good luck guys! Took me 3 months and 6 calls, email to VP of distribution. Got ripped here when I mentioned slow turn around by the Combat guys. Understand transition is tuff. But customer service can sometimes make up for a operational failure. Last Combat for me if / when this one breaks.

What about the other companies who didn't go through a restructure and are behind on their returns?

Did you give them your RA# when you called?

Yes only time I didn't was when it was taking a really long time to look up the ra in the system. I was on lunch and couldn't hang on. But this was like on the 4th call. The other 3x they looked it up and said just waiting on the merger to be done.

what do you think about this bat 200 swings on it and it still feels like its not broken in even though webbing has started 2011 bat

Meh. It's alright when broken in. Just read the Combat forum. Read for hours. Then keep reading. By next week you'll know all about the different bats characteristics - pop, distance, feel, etc. and will be able to decide which one you want to try. Then buy it, try it, and either keep it or trade it and try another one.
