Over 20 14/15/16# balls for sale, some free! Must go!
« on: July 30, 2009, 08:51:59 AM »
My friend is getting out of bowling and I’m getting rid a ton of my stuff since I haven’t been bowling much the past couple years and I don’t need it, so all of this is for sale only no trades.  Each link is to an album of pictures for each ball.  We’re not going to be picky on price, so just make an offer if you see something that catches your eye.  I’ve bought far too many bowling balls, so I’m dropping the sentimental feeling of having them and just cutting my losses.  Don’t be alarmed at the amount of stuff I’m selling if you don’t recognize me, I used to cause hell post frequently on this site a few years ago and a list of my prior transactions here is listed in my profile.

All of the balls will be cleaned before shipping so don’t worry about any beltmarks or other grime you see.  Thumb pitches vary from 3/16” reverse to ½” forward, and to be honest I don’t remember them exactly so I’ll just designate them with “reverse” or “forward”.  Finger pitches on the shorter span balls are generally around 1/8” reverse and 3/16” reverse on the longer span stuff.  Once again, it varies.  But you should be plugging this stuff anyways.

As for shipping, it will be actual shipping costs from 19335 so when making an offer, it would be ideal if you factored that in.  I suppose shipping will be done through UPS Ground unless you have some profound hatred for them.  Payments will be done through paypal, as I don’t want to bother with money orders or the like.



14 Pound Equipment:


My Gear – span generally around 4 1/4"

Storm Dark Thunder - $25 + shipping
Fully plugged once, then fingers moved again slightly.  Thumb is around 0 I believe.  Some scuffs on cover, but nothing bad.

Brunswick Power Groove - $10  + shipping

Brunswick Monster Bruiser – 15 + shipping
Fully plugged once, fingers replugged for pitch change, then thumb reslugged for same.  I think thumb pitch is 0 or 1/8” forward.  Some scuffs on the cover, nothing bad though.
http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v326/a_ak57/bruiser/

Brunswick Rhino Pro Gold - $15 + shipping  --SOLD
Fully plugged twice, complete with mill hole plug.  Forward.  Cover somehow still looks nice except for one mark, and the ball reacts as though it has no idea of its age.
http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v326/a_ak57/gold%20rhino/

Ebonite Gamebreaker - $30 + shipping
Fully plugged once to convert it to the infamous “Rico” layout.  Forward.  Used for a summer season so cover is in nice condition.
http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v326/a_ak57/gamebreaker/

Ebonite Maxim – Just pay shipping!!
Fingers plugged to switch to no-grips.  Reverse or 0” for thumb.  Cover is fine.  Maybe somebody would want this along with another ball?  I dunno.
http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v326/a_ak57/maxim/

Hammer Raw Psycho - $45 + shipping
Single drill, used it last summer.  Foward.  Cover is in terrific shape.
http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v326/a_ak57/psycho/

Brunswick RED PIN Zone Classic - $20 + shipping
Okay, story time.  Short story, this ball is a BLEM and has a harder cover than normal (Green Pin) Zone Classics because there was a batch that cured for too long, and to denote these, Brunswick gave them Red Pins.  So in effect, you have a drier lanes version of a Zone Classic.  Single drill, with some scuff marks.  Reverse.
http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v326/a_ak57/red%20pin%20zone%20classic/

Brunswick GREEN PIN Zone Classic - $25 + shipping
This is the version of the Zone Classic we’re all familiar with.  Plugged to switch away from Sarge Easter.  Reverse.  Cover is in great shape other than a bunch of beltmarks for some reason.
http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v326/a_ak57/green%20pin%20zone%20classic/

Brunswick Speed Zone - $15 + shipping
Fully plugged once, with two gouges plugged.  Don’t worry, they were sanded correctly (not flat) and won’t be in your track unless you have a strange one, as shown by my MS Paint picture.  Reverse.  Cover is fine.
http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v326/a_ak57/speed%20zone/

Ebonite F5 Tornado Red/White/Blue - $30 + shipping
This tornado has the F5 coverstock, which is similar/equal to The One’s coverstock.  Sarge Easter, single drill.  Forward.  Cover is in excellent condition, as I haven’t used it much.
http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v326/a_ak57/tornado/



16 Pound Equipment:


Friend's Gear – span generally around 4 1/2"

Ebonite V2 Strong/R - $30 + shipping
Thumb plugged once.  Forward.  Cover is in excellent condition as this ball was used sparingly.
http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v326/a_ak57/v2%20strongr/

Brunswick Fuze Eliminator - $35 + shipping
Single drill.  Reverse.  A couple scuffs but otherwise it's in great condition as it wasn't used much and just sat around.
http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v326/a_ak57/drews%20fuze%20eliminator/

Brunswick Rampage - $15 + shipping
Pin area plugged due to cracking as it was too close to fingers, then fingers plugged.  Then, area around current finger plugged due to a small crack.  Forward.   Cover is in great condition except for one scuff/gouge on opposite side of grip.
http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v326/a_ak57/rampage/


My Gear – span generally around 4 1/4"

Fuze Eliminator – Just pay shipping!!
The fingers were plugged once, the thumb may have been plugged in place but I don’t remember.  But it doesn’t really matter, since the cover has been resurfaced so many times that the logos/serial are fairly unreadable.  But somehow, the ball still reacts like it did years ago.  Not something for tournaments, but it can still conquer house shot leagues.

My offer still stands on the two Zone Classics and the Gamebreaker. Just give me a shout if you want to discuss.
