Is there a certain time of the year when tennis rackets are cheaper or on sale?

Question

i was wondering if theres a certain time of the year that tennis rackets are sold cheaper and if there is, when does it occur? if it doesn't, then how long does a tennis racket's price usually drop?

i have my eye on a $170 racket.... not something i could just buy right off the bat

Answer 1

There really isn't a time of the year that the tennis season ends so there aren't sales just because it's a certain time of the year. Usually if a racket had been on the market for a year or more, the price will drop. Also if the company has developed a newer version of the racket, the older version will more likely go on sale. Once the price has dropped, it won't go back up.

Answer 2

There really isn't a right time to buy a racquets that makes them cheaper.

If the dealer releases a new line of racquets, usually prices drops 1-2 weeks after on the previous model.

But once the new ones come out, wouldn't you want the newer racquets!

You can find deals on eBay but be careful of counterfeiting!

My personal opinion, if you really want that racquet, I wouldn't hesitate to buy it. If the racquet has been out for awhile (2 years) then I would consider waiting cause a new line should be released by then. A dealer typically releases new lines every 3 years.

Hope this is helpful!

Nor really.  They usually drop once the company comes out with a new line.  Try and search it on Ebay.
