GM Icon 808 GM+

Hi Guys

I have recently bought a GM Icon 808 GM+ from a well known auction site. The bat is used slightly but I dont mind as I dont have the time to knock it in. The bat is a GM+ so has extra wood, weighs about 2,12 (yes I know it is on the heavy side but that is what I was looking for). It has the 2010 stickers and not the 2011.

Question: I am on a very tight budget and would loved to have bought the Icon Original LE but have to get the priorites right, I won this bat for £50, do you think it is worth that price or have I paid over the odds?

Let me know your thoughts.

50 pounds is very cheap for an 808.
