I've been fruitlessly searching the Web for a good European mail order source for the Ashaway POWERNICK 18 Squash Reel (214AR), which one can find at a cheap $80.00 on eBay.com but from a seller who doesn't ship to Europe.
I understand many other European members use this string and I'd really like to compare it with my usual TF 305, so please let me know where you buy it!

squashgear.com will ship to anywhere in the world and they have a fair price on reels (about $75 if memory serves). I think it cost me about $30 to get it shipped to the UK, so I'd expect it to be something similar to Italy.

sparty,
the pointer you give sells the reel for £114.99 or about $230.00 (!!!!) ... and that's not considering shipping costs. Problem is, one can find European dealers but will soon discover all the prices are similarly bloated beyond reason.
ferris69,
I live in Rome, Italy. In my experience, S&H fees usually mean it's best to get a reel instead of single sets. Thank you for the offer nonetheless.

I picked mine up while in the USA and will happily sell you a set if you want to try it out?
Let me know what country you live in etc and hopefully we can sort a fair price out.
I have tried it and it's very similar to the 305 TF. If anything i would say not quite as powerful but a nicer feel to it than the TF and you can cut the ball better due to the rougher strings.
I have played for years with the 225 TF but have recently swapped to the X One Bi phase in Red which is very nice although not very durable.

$79.95 for the powernick 18 reel! Shipping is done off weight of the product, so should be reasonably cheap!
