The dad who plays midweek competition and has a broken-strung racquet sitting in the boot of the car right now
Co-polyester monofilament string in a 40-foot black set, with a slick surface that lets strings snap back for spin.
A competitive player snaps strings every few weeks, and the delay is never the stringer, it is not having a set on hand. A spare set in the bag means he drops the racquet off the same day instead of losing a week of tennis.
Dispatch and transit are separate windows and the estimate on a product page is usually only the second one. How long Australia Post actually takes.
60 days from the day you buy it, not the day Dad opens it. Comfortable for a gift bought well ahead.
Racquets in new condition, shoes as received, apparel unwashed and unworn with tags attached.
A faulty, unsafe or misdescribed product carries a consumer guarantee no store policy can remove. Tennis Only’s full terms.
Tennis Only’s delivery and returns pages were read on 3 September 2026. Policies change without notice; theirs at checkout is the one that binds.
One reading so far. We record every change from here, so a sale price later in the year can be measured against this one rather than against whatever a retailer says it used to cost. Why that matters.
