Can someone please enlighten me as to why it seems to be impossible to find NIB Storm balls that have been discontinued? I don't mean just the older stuff, like the X Factors and Paradigms. I mean everything. Anarchy, Prodigy, Shift, etc. Just looking for some answers. Feel like I'm looking for the proverbial needle in a haystack with some of my searches.

Thanks,

stormdamage

Your dealing with possibly the most popular bowling ball manufacturer in the sport right now. So there is not going to be alot of left over stock on pro shops walls. Plus when these balls are discontinued and the prices drop a tad bit, they get taken very quickly by the bowlers. Not too many on line places, when they have a sale on older Storm balls, end up having any left.

Thanks. That's what I had figured as well. Is it possible that ppl are just sitting on some of these? I have an NIB triple xteme that I wouldn't part with. I love Storm. Best stuff I have found. Just wish I could find more of it. LOL.

I have 2 15# pro pin Shifts in my For Sale post, at a reasonable price, as well as several other NIB Storm/Roto.

I've noticed this too, and it seems to have gotten a lot worse the last few months. For example, bowlingball.com used to have a fairly extensive list of older Storm/Roto stuff, including several pro pin/pro cg balls. Not really the case anymore. If you're currently looking, ebay still has some recently retired Storm gear most of the time.
