| For me has to be those modified chisnalls, with postage they cost me £35. Played well with them for a week and then couldnt do squat with them. Sold them to mac in the end.
Also not a dart related purchase but found a betting slip in my wallet earlier today, dated monday (league night) must have had more to drink than i thought, dont remember going to the bookies at all. Any way i put a quid on liverpool to be relegated at 66/1. That's a stupid purchase! |

| 1). Paid over £70 for a set of Unicorn Sigma XL Pros....... and hated them from the word go Thankfully got about £60 back for them on ebay 2). My customs........ cant get on with them at all and even got them laser etched 3). Cosmo stuff........ bought a few different sets of flights/stems but they all seemed to make my darts land in the board at strange angles, not for me and the prices are extortionate! |

| My Target Hi Viz Play Vision Dartboard. Too soft and had gluey residue. It's wearing faster than my previous Winmau Pro SFB board.

I think dvsdog said his board was sticky at first too, he got the Pro Tour. |

Hmm would have to get a bit more feedback first to be sure, but its possible there may have been some other issue what caused it, never had one myself so can only go by others opinions. |

| Embarrassingly I bought 4 unicorn boards without reading or looking at them. The had painted numbers so couldn't rotate them. I ended up giving them to charity along with some bar darts. |

Must have missed this the 1st time, but I'm on my 3rd Pro Vision Target board and I love them. However, I cant say the same for the Target Pro Leather Wallets, had 3 now - 2 went within weeks due to the thread holding the pockets wearing, thus splitting the pockets rendering them useless. Third one, the zip snapped first time I opened it Needless to say there wont be a 4th time. |

| there is a few lol
1. Winmau re grooved points they are terrible in my opinion wreck the board and ware quick
2. barney saw grip darts or any other dart razzor gripped dart which is expensive they ware really quickly and if you play alot you would need about 6 or 7 sets a year.
3. Unicorn flights and Stems they are crap if i am honest dont last at all.
4. this is a strange one but entry to most BDO run comps you wait around for ages for your first game or first few with no where to practice and no where to sit make it to the last 16 and win £20 or less and you have spent more on beer lol horrible one to say as i love the lakeside comp but there you go PDC is the way forward for any player with ambitions in darts.
