    I unfortunately have received two defective super stick tamas from KUSA, but since I love the shift shape, I want to get a good kusa tama to match one of the kens. So if anyone has a new superstick or silk kusa tama, preferably in the 75-80 range, hmu.

    thank for the offer, but I'm looking, for the shift/slim sized tamas.

    What is defective about the super sticks?
    I have a fresh Dolphin complete and a fresh Scout complete (both in box, but opened), but the tamas are not 100% round. They are approximately 90% round, not bad at all. I don't play them because I have my own dolphin that I slay, also 90% round.

    Here are the tamas, the scout tama is 10/10, ken is 9.8/10. Did maybe two tricks with it. Tama has a little bit of black going into the green. I have another one that has one very shallow tama dent but no paint blemish (perfect stripes) but the tama shapes are identical (90% round). Both are the same value imo.

    This dolphin is 9/10, turns out I did do some tricks with it.
    I have another one that is perfect but I kind of want to hold onto it so that one would cost a couple more dollars.
    Those two also have the same tama shape.

    And I would like to sell these as in-box completes but I could sell you just the tama if you really want.

    For the first one (9/10) the tama weighs 83g
    For the second one (10/10) the tama weighs 87g
    The kens are 78g (9/10) and 79g (10/10) and both have good lunar balance.
    Sarados are both 43g, swords are 35g and 36g.

    Thanks for the offer and the in-depth responses, but I think I'm going to pass. The tamas are a little too heavy, but I also understand you want to sell them as completes, so I wouldn't want to mess things up for you as well. Thanks again though.
