Sales of the Rucanor Aluminium Baseball Bat are up more than 5,600%.
As if riots in London weren't scary enough, it has now come to our attention that UK residents looking to defend themselves (or join the fray?) are flooding Amazon's AMZN English store with orders for new baseball bats.
The Rucanor Aluminium Baseball Bat is up 5,600%, jumping from rank 7,354 to rank 127. The Midwest American ash Wodden Baseball Bat has jumped more than 3,800%, and has made a similar leap in rank from 5,631 to 144. The Bronx 32" Wooden Baseball Bat and MA sports Laser 32" Aluminium Baseball Bat are each up more than 3,000%. Finally, the Midwest Adult Slugger Wood Bat is up 1,700%.
While the Rucanor led the pack for much of the day in the “movers and shakers” category within the sports and leisure department, it has since been topped by a police baton, which is up more than 7,000%. Eager buyers shouldn't get their hopes up, however, as the item page seems to have disappeared.
Thanks to @Nate_West for the tip.
