I've been looking for the Holy Grail of Brunswick bowling balls for a while now.  But there's no way I'm dropping 2 bills for it.

I think the seller had it listed at $300 about a month back.

I believe it is the same seller.

I sent him a message asking him how he could justify $300 for the ball.

Dang. I missed this.

The ball was worth what it brought. On the right day, you could have sold it for a profit.

If I lose, I will buy you that EBay ball.

I'll put up my two Gold Rhino Pros for either:

(2) Dugout club Dodger seats to any game I want

OR

15# NIB Crown Jewel Gold Flake

You pick the house and condition, I choose the format.

Which one is the ball in the movie Kingpin?

Gold Rhino Pro or Crown Jewel Gold Flake?

Has anyone got a pic of Crown Jewel Gold Flake? I don't think I've even seen one.

Thanks.

I believe that this is "THE ball," but not 100%.

I think Brunswick should remake the Rhino Pro Gold, make it look like that and call it the Gold Rush.

Guess it's time to dig my used 15 pound Gold out of the shed and clean it up if they are fetching prices like that.

What weight?

Friend of mine in the shop has 3-4 plugged Gold Crowns, they were left when he bought the shop.  I guess the guy that owned the shop before hand, sold the 2 NIB ones he had for 2-3k a piece.  WOW.  If your interested in one of the used/plugged ones Nick I can ask em how much he wants for one.  Still in great shape too.
