The prize was great but most importantly the option to get my order delivered sooner was perfect timing. My son was able to take his CATX to his games and show it off.

Closeoutbats.com is one of the BEST places to purchase the latest bats with the kind of AMAZING customer service that is so rare these days. We bought a Combat Rodeo bat when they dropped around 11 pm & their site held up & didn't crash like many others do. I also needed to call & ask a question & they actually were there to answer the phone so late at night. I was beyond surprised! I placed the order so quick that I missed checking that we didn't want...
At Closeout Bats we stock what we sell! We have a huge warehouse and are NOT drop shipping bats like many web sites. We update inventory and availability on the Web site several times a day as inventory positions change shipping hundreds and hundeds of bats. We also sell bats out of our physical store, so sometimes things sell out before we can get them off the Web site.
Limited quantities available. Prices subject to change without notice. Like we say, if it's on the site, it's in the warehouse -- just SOMETIMES it might have some other player's name on it! If you snooze, you lose, so ORDER YOURS NOW!
