Elite now available from Buddies!
« on: May 12, 2011, 02:36:49 AM »
 
Alright, I give up on trying to make the link work.  Copy and paste.....or just go to the home page, since they list the balls by most expensive by default the Elite products will be on the first page!
 
 
And still as expensive as ever!
 
Woohoo!
 
That PBA Platinum is looking awesome.....and at only $300 it's a steal!   I guess AMF would have been more successful with their Radar line if they had inverted the Tower core?

I like the Sabotage. The core looks a little like Fury core.
Qstick: I sent a pm on how I do a url. Hope it helps.

Still the same garbage from them..

 

Old core technology, with new covers from G900 and overprice them.

 

They make Lane#1 look good..


Yes. it's I, the Inverted One..

Elite is still in business?

charlest and kidlost2000 - I tried that with the same results that you guys got.
 
If you  click your links you posted you'll see that it takes you to page not found.  The Buddies link uses brackets - [ ] and for some reason this site is changing the last ] to a >.    Very strange.

How can they use the name Phantom?  Isn't that a Brunswick ball?  I only bring that up because I know there was an issue with the Ebonite Domination because Storm had a ball with the same name.  Oh and yes they are very over priced.

Been bowling for about 8 yrs now and I've only seen one Elite ball in action.  Guy got it free when he bought another ball from bowlersparadise.com and it sucked.

 

Not sure why buddies is even fooling w/ Elite equipment?????

Awww now I see. That is weird.
 
As far as cost, my guess is because it is a very small company with very low sales. Honestly not sure though.

Saw a guy with a Cheetah on a league I bowled a few years ago. That's it. I think the whole concept is pretty sad.
