I don't know if this person even has a user i.d. for this site, but they replied to a post I made and I noticed every ball they mentioned in my email was for sale on ebay by someone who lives somewhere other than where he supposedly lives. He sent me a pic of a Paradigm Passion that is identical to one on ebay. I'm pretty sure this guy is a scammer so users beware. Not sure if I can turn him in since I don't know of a user i.d. for this site. Anyway, just wanted to give everyone a heads up.

He is listed as Mike300856 and I bought a Hy-Road from him recently.  Even though there was about a 4 day delay with shipping due to a job issue that came up, he communicated this clearly with me and kept me up to date the entire time.  He gave me the tracking # the day he promised me I would get it.  Once the ball was shipped, it took only about 1-1/2 days to arrive and it was in good condition.  My driller also commented that it was in good condition and was accurate with the pin and CG placements.  Since then, I have thrown the Hy-Road several times and it has a nice spot in my arsenal.

I would do business with him again.  It was a smooth transaction from start to finish, even with the slight delay.

As with any transaction, communication between buyer and seller is essential.  That is why I always make sure to see multiple pictures of the balls available to check condition and why I ask questions about it before making any offers to purchase.  Also, that is why I use paypal exclusively on these deals because if any issue does come up, it can be taken care of.
