A couple of questions for newguy...
« on: January 24, 2006, 06:53:51 PM »
You've said that the Vendetta core is one of your favorites, and you say that it seems to work well with any coverstock. My question is: How does it work with the Soaker coverstock?(I'm assuming you've already tried it out for yourself.) If it didn't work out, what didn't you like about it? And if it did work well, why not release it(to the public)?

The vendettas sell online for $90-$100 and soaker line sells for $115-$130. This info is based from buddies current prices. I think $110-$120 range would be fair. However, if you made this ball happen, I would pay the same price as the soaker line if need be. Just make it happen bro. lol

I've been waiting to use this! I got the name and the price!! Ok the name could be DYNO-MITE And the price $125 on-line $175 in the proshop. Got the colors to : bright red with orange swirl! And of course a picture of a lit stick of dynamite. I think that would be cool! But what do I know!!            GIVE ME DYNO-THANE OR GIVE ME DEATH!

Gimme a Pure Energy cover on a vendetta core and I guarantee I'll by one....or 4.

Incidentally can I get a job with DT? We could really use a Rep around here, and I think I could handle it.

I have a BA in Business Admin...or will in a couple of months.

Sue : Yeah I do actually I think it's a good thing.
Ali G: Do you think all girls should try feminism at least once? Do you think it's right that they should try it when they is drunk at a party or what ever with one of their mates?
Sue : What is trying feminism?
Ali G: You know try a bit of feminism and when they is sober wake up in the morning and get back with their boyfriend?

Well thank you!  Yeah I'm hoping it will pay off when it comes to the job market, but I want to get into a market that I'm going to have fun working in day in and day out.

What could be better than being a bowling manufacturer rep/salesman?

guys,

it's not a question of whether a few of us are willing to pay the premium for a soaker on a vendetta core.

it's whether it's a viable marketing decision or not and that may be questionable. look at all the people posting here whose pro shop can't get hold of a plain vendetta, thinking it's been discontinued, because their distributor doesn't even know how to get one!

look at Buddies, a huge internet selling machine, marking down the energy line this past Xmas to $115, probably due to lack of sales.    I bought a High Energy from them for $115 plus shipping just because i couldn't pass up the sale on a great ball. i didn't need another ball.

Ya it's like that here to no one throws D/T in my house but me, its all brunswick. But thats fine with me. It just makes it easyer to beat them!! Come on DYNO-MITE IS a great name for the next D/T ball! My proshop guy wants $220 for the CM ! but sales brunswick stuff cheap. thats why we see so much of it here.

Other than my wife and one other, who buys most of my used equip, the only problem I have is keeping everyone else's finger prints wiped off my equipment.
