I had posted in the for sale forum looking for used Diesels and this person said they had one for sale, 30 games on it. I sent him a PM about it's condition asking also how much and had it been plugged. He replied using much worse language than is allowed here telling me not to ever respond to anymore of his post and he would never respond to mine. Now, to me at least, these were very good, legitimate questions. I have had balls with much less than 30 games that I just did not like. And, some have come from other BR members who had the same thoughts on a ball and just wanted to get whatever they could for them. I just sold a Sharp Blade that was traded back into my shop because it was the wrong weight for the customer that ordered it. I did not like it after I PLUGGED it, and I am VERY sure it had not more that 10 games on it, but yet it had been plugged. So, to My duggre, if I could I'd put an icon up showing the middle finger. What a jerk!!!!!!!!!!!

That's odd. I've never dealt with duggre personally, but I've seen him post for a long time and never had a problem with anything he wrote.

I think we may need tolook into the possibility of a multiple sign in for this one. I have dealt with him in the past and found him to be nothing short of a totally upstanding and great guy.
Just my 2 cents

Instantly I was thinking the same thing as Doug!
Did someone steal his ID?

Might be that someone stole his ID. Someone tried doing that to me a while back. Like I said, all I did was ask about the condition of a ball he offered me and I got a VERY rude response back.

I gotta say duggre you would hate dealing with me then and I will make sure not to answer any of your post selling anything, because I will ask span, hole sizes, if its been pluged how it was drilled, the weight after drilling, and for pictures if possible so that I can see with my own eyes the condition of the cover. If that is insulting somebody's integrity then that person needs thicker skin, where I come from that is cya.

I don't really play cards and I am not 79, but it fits together somehow.

On a used ball, I am much more likely to buy if the span is close to mine, so I can throw it a few times without spending $40 having it completely plugged and redrilled. Maybe I shouldn't care, but I do.
Two messages asking for info doesn't sound too insulting to me...

Not even too mention that fact that even if you do plug the ball, the plug may be in your track, which isnt necessarily bad, but not really good either. My 2 cents.
