stormbowler299
« on: April 30, 2007, 11:03:23 AM »
i no he had a bad rap on here, but i did the deal with him anyways, he sent the ball first and it came in as it was described, the only problem was that it was 15.12 oz ball instead of a 15 lb ball, but oh well ill just man up and throw it...other than that the deal went fine, he agreed to everything and shipped when he said he would and all that jazz...even have his AIM messenger name to keep in touch, so in my eyes no problems

You are too forgiving in my opinion. If someone advertised a ball as 15# and I received one just a little under 16#, I would not be a happy camper.

Sounds like the kid just can't quite get the whole honesty thing.  Congrats on your 279 rymac, but I would not be posting positive feedback for a less than honest seller/trader.

I think he is being blasted for selling a 15 lb 12 oz ball when it was advertised as 15 lb.

Some companies list weights as 1/10 of oz and others as full oz. Did you scale the ball?

1/2 lb difference means a WHOLE BUNCH to me. 15's are usually 15-2 to maybe 15-4+ NOT 15-12 oz!! although when I order a 16 for a customer it very seldom weighs over the 16-1+ so that after drilling usually will be around 15-11 to 15-13+

I'm sorry, but that is complete BS.  You (stormbowler299) had advertised that ball as 15lb. 12oz. before, and not gotten any response.  It is the same ball you were going to trade to me, and told me at the time it was 15lb. 12oz..  I was fine with that, but you did not disclose that to the person you traded it to, and now you are trying to claim you didn't know.  You need to learn to be honest, 100% of the time.  You seem to have a problem called: being a pathological liar.  This kid is bad news, and I feel bad for anyone who decides to deal with him.  -Kyle
