WARNING: Counterfeits
YONEX UK has become aware of counterfeit versions of YONEX products being sold
through unauthorised third parties, mainly domestic and international websites. These
counterfeit items may improperly bear the YONEX logo and often closely resemble
authentic YONEX products, making them difficult for customers to identify. However,
despite their similar appearance, counterfeit products frequently differ in specifications
and performance, are of inferior quality, and may pose risks, including the potential for
injury or accidents.
Please be advised that counterfeit products are not covered under any YONEX UK
warranty. We cannot guarantee their quality, safety, or performance and assume no
liability for any damages resulting from their use.
To ensure the authenticity, quality, and safety of your purchase, we strongly recommend
buying YONEX products only from our authorised retailers. If you have concerns about
product authenticity, please contact our customer support team for verification.
Please note that after-sales service, quality assurance, and compensation for damages
do not apply to products purchased through private sales, including counterfeit items,
or to products for without a verifiable purchase history (such as those missing a
warranty card that clearly states the authorised retailer).
