Bought a ball from Russ and I must say its nice to deal with a stand up guy! I had paid paypal and he later that day pmed me that he did notice a scratch/stress crack by the bottom of the thumb. Email me picts and let me decide if I wanted a refund or the ball at a discounted price. I will MOST DEFINATELY deal with gojr1815 in the future!!! Thanks Russ!
