I took a chance when all instincts told me not to. Ed had 2 posts here, and he was advertising a great ball at a good price. When he offered to come down on the price by $20. or $30., couldn't provide any pictures, and I couldn't find his post after I told him that I sent payment, I thought my money was gone. Fortunately, Ed proved to be a man of his word.  He replied to all of my inquiries. This ball looks as though it only has a couple games on it. It was shipped promptly, and double boxed. I'll forgive the fact that the inner box previously belonged to a "Hello Kitty" bowling ball. ;-) Thanks for the great transaction, and I hope to see you around the forum more often.

Look for me in the upcoming PBA Tour! I'll be the guy in the back row with the foam finger singing "Take Me Out To The Ball Game" during the 7th inning.
